NAV’s Good Intentions debuts at No. 1 with over 10,000 total consumption units, picking up the highest album sales and on-demand streams for the week. It is his second consecutive chart-topping album, following 2019’s Bad Habits.


Last week’s No. 1 album, Drake’s Dark Lane Demo Tapes, drops to 2nd place, and The Weeknd’s After Hours holds at No. 3.

Kehlani’s It Was Good Until It Wasn’t debuts at No. 4. It is her second-highest chart peak to date, only surpassed by her 2017 No. 3 debut album Sweetsexysavage, and topping her last release, 2019’s While We Wait, which peaked at 17.
