Travis Scott's 'Days Before Rodeo' Soars to No. 1 on Billboard 200

The 2014 mixtape achieves chart-topping status after a decade, propelled by vinyl sales and a recent re-release.

Travis Scott's mixtape 'Days Before Rodeo' jumps from No. 106 to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.
The mixtape, originally released for free in 2014, was re-released on streaming platforms and for purchase in August 2024.
Vinyl sales played a crucial role, with 149,000 of the 150,000 traditional album sales coming from pre-ordered vinyl editions.
This marks the largest week on vinyl for a rap album since tracking began in 1991 and the sixth-largest across all genres.
The album's rise dethrones Sabrina Carpenter's 'Short N’ Sweet' after three weeks at the top.
