Weezer’s Van Weezer earns the highest debut for the week, at No. 18. It is the LA band’s highest chart peak since Weezer (White Album) reached No. 10 in April 2016 and surpasses the No. 69 peak of their last album, OK Human, in January.

The only other new release to enter in the top 50 is Michigan rapper Tee Grizzley’s Built for Whatever, at No. 46. It surpasses the No. 88 peak of his last release, 2020’s The Smartest.
