A Tribe Called Quest and Jeezy Set Billboard Records

A Tribe Called Quest has the most popular album in the country for the first time in twenty years, setting a record for the longest span between top-selling albums for a Hip-Hop act.

Their latest album We Got It from Here… Thank You 4 Your Service, which is expected to be their last album since the death of founding member Phife Dawg, sits at number one on the Billboard 200, moving 135,000 album units. ATCQ haven’t topped the album charts since the release of Beats, Rhymes, and Life in 1996.

Atl rapper Jeezy also broke a record of his own recently when Trap or Die 3 became his first number one album since 2008’s The Recession, making it eight years and two months since its release.
