NF’s


‘Search’


Ends At


No. 1


NF scores his second No. 1


album on the Billboard 200


as the rapper’s latest studio


set, The Search, enters atop


the tally. The LP starts with


130,000 equivalent album


units earned in the week


ending Aug. 1, according to


Nielsen Music — the fourth-


largest week for a rap title


released in 2019. Of that


sum, 84,000 were in album


sales — the biggest sales


week for a rap set this year.


The Search’s first week is


more than double the debut


frame of NF’s last album,


Perception, which opened


at No. 1 with 55,000 units


earned (of which 38,000


were in album sales) on the


chart dated Oct. 28, 2017.


The Search benefited


from sturdy sales through


traditional means like


the iTunes Store, a range


of merchandise/album


bundles sold via NF’s


official web store (including


a few late-in-the-week


new offers of signed merch


bundled with an album)


and a concert ticket/album


sale redemption offer.


When Perception started


at No. 1, it notably did so


without NF having ever


charted a single on the


all-genre Billboard Hot 100,


though the artist did have


a dedicated core following


that turned out in week


one to support the set.


Since then, Perception has


launched a pair of hits on


the Hot 100, including the


No. 1 Mainstream Top 40


airplay single “Let You


Down,” and went on to earn


over 1 million equivalent


album units.


The Search’s current radio-


promoted single, “Time,”


debuts on Mainstream


Top 40 at No. 37 and rises


38-30 on Rhythmic.


—Keith Caulfield
