A week after seeing his self-titled fifth album top the Billboard 200, rapper Future pulls a repeat by topping the same chart with its follow-up, ‘HNDRXX.’

As predicted, despite clocking a lower sales equivalence than its feature-less forerunner, ‘HNDRXX’ still managed to move enough units to see it debut at #1 on this week’s refreshed chart.  The measure makes him the first act in Billboard history to achieve back-to-back No.1 debuts on the Billboard 200 in successive weeks.  Additionally, the ‘Real Sistas’ rapper lays claim to another unique title:  the first solo artist to ever replace himself at #1 on the album chart.

While the world impatiently waits for Nicki Minaj to strike back at Remy Ma for the back-to-back blows, From The Vault journeys back you to the year 2004 for yet another Urban classic.

Today’s pick is ‘Lean Back’ by a Fat Joe and Remy fronted Terror Squad.

Helmed by 00’s producer-extraordinaire Scott Storch, the track is the definition of club banger and sees Joe and Rem trading verses while commanding the listener to pull up their pants and… lean back.

A Billboard smash, it topped the Hot 100 tally for 3 consecutive weeks during Summer 04 and placed #10 on the Year End Chart.
