  • J. Cole’s The Fall-Off First-Week Sales: Official Numbers & Billboard Debut | Hip Hop News & Culture
    Feb 15 2026
    “Hip-hop fans, we’ve got the official numbers in for J. Cole’s seventh studio album, The Fall-Off. After its release on February 6, the highly anticipated project has officially landed at number one on the Billboard 200 chart. According to sales reports, The Fall-Off moved approximately 280,000 album-equivalent units in its first week — a massive number that confirms the album’s commercial impact.
    Of those total units, around 167,000 came from streaming, with over 169 million on-demand streams across the full project. Pure album sales, including vinyl and CD purchases, contributed about 113,000 units, making this one of the strongest physical sales weeks for a hip-hop or R&B album in quite some time.
    The success of The Fall-Off not only marks another chart-topping release for Cole but also showcases the enduring popularity of his music, even as he hints that this could be his last album.
    Stay tuned for more updates on how this project continues to perform on the charts.”

    50 Cent Claps Back at Critics After Curtis Hits 1 Billion Streams

    “Rapper 50 Cent is shutting down critics once again — this time about his music legacy. Recently, his 2007 album Curtis just crossed one billion streams on Spotify, and Fif made sure everyone saw it.
    For years, some in hip-hop culture have joked that his only good album was his breakout classic Get Rich Or Die Tryin’. But posting about Curtis’ milestone on Instagram, 50 Cent laughed off that narrative, saying — quote — ‘I thought I only had one good album. Which one of your albums got a billion streams that ain’t good? ’ and ended with LOL.
    Of course, most fans still consider Get Rich Or Die Tryin’ a timeless classic. But with Curtis now joining the billion-stream club, 50’s latest flex is a clear reminder: he believes his catalog is deeper than people give it credit for.
    And while he hasn’t focused heavily on new music lately, his influence across music, business, and entertainment continues to resonate — and he’s not shy about letting the numbers do the talking.”
