Congratulations are in order for Kendrick Lamar, Ryan Coogler and everyone who contributed to Black Panther: The Album. According to Nielsen Music, the soundtrack to the record-breaking film is set to debut at number 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.

The Kendrick-curated album sold a whopping 154,000 total sales in the week ending on February 15th, with 52,000 of them being traditional album sales. The body of work featured everyone from Kendrick and TDE, to Future, to The Weeknd, and so many others.

The film itself made history as well, opening with a record-breaking $218 million score at the box office. Safe to say the Black Panther hype wasn’t just hype.

Congrats to everyone who made this happen!
