SCMG/Interscope's DaBaby will end The Weeknd's reign at #1. Early numbers suggest a first week that could come close to that of his last album, Kirk, which opened with 154k in October of 2019. Can Blame It on Baby trend strong enough to beat Kirk? Stay tuned.

DaBaby (Interscope) 130-140k total activity, 8-10k album
Fiona Apple (Epic) 45-50k, 32-36k
