Tyler, The Creator‘s IGOR has cemented him as a superstar.

Per Chart Data, IGOR is set to go No. 1, potentially moving upwards of 170 thousand units.
If these predictions hold, Tyler will have the highest first week SPS (sales plus streams) of any hip-hop album this year, besting Juice WRLD‘s Death Race for Love (165k) and Future‘s The WIZRD (125k).
Tyler’s last album, Flower Boy, did 106,000 units in its first week. What a vast improvement.
