A$AP Rocky claims the #1 spot on multiple charts this week with his critically acclaimed sophomore album At.Long.Last.A$AP, including his second #1 entry on Billboard’s Top 200 Album, R&B/Hip-Hop and Rap charts, according to Nielsen SoundScan. The outspoken MC also takes the #1 position on Spotify’s Top Album chart, breaking Drake’s nine-week run at #1 and placing A$AP Rocky as the #1 Top Artist on the streaming site.

Internationally, Rocky lands the #1 spot on Canada’s Top Album chart and debuts at #10 in the UK. The album also marks career high Top 10 entries in Australia, Switzerland and New Zealand with only half the chart week. Additionally, At.Long.Last.A$AP peaked at #1 on iTunes in over 30 markets including UK, Canada, Australia, France, Germany, Switzerland, Denmark, Finland, New Zealand, Poland, Russia and Ireland. The album debuted at #1 on the South African iTunes Hip-Hop/Rap albums chart last week and also entered the overall Top 100 at #2.
A$AP Rocky’s return to the top of the charts is complemented with an overwhelming response from fans and media with the Los Angeles Times describing the album as “raw, woozy, profoundly psychedelic and often brilliant.” The New York Times proclaims “Rocky is a more precise and impressive rapper… a rapper who understands his talent in relation to that of his peers and that of his influences, unafraid of showing you his blueprint.” Rolling Stone cites “At.Long.Last.A$AP takes the gritty East Coast classicism and syrup-drippin' Houston screwiness of his killer 2013 debut, Long.Live.A$AP, and adds an extra level of psychedelic sprawl…”
Get the album in stores in South Africa from next week (June 8th), or alternatively on iTunes: http://smarturl.it/ALLA
