This week's Billboard chart is in and while Adele is still holding down the No. 1 spot for the tenth time, Yo Gotti has reached a peak of his own. His latest release, The Art of Hustle, charted at No. 4, marking the Memphis rapper’s highest debut.

According to Billboard, Gotti moved 61,000 units, or 45,000 in pure album sales. The album outsold his 2013 LP, I Am, which sold under 50,000 in its first week. Aside from Adele, Gotti charted just under Rihanna's ANTI and Justin Bieber's Purpose.

Elsewhere, The Art of the Hustle also entered at No. 1 on Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, Rap Albums and Digital Albums.

Gotti previously spoke on the album and the concept behind it during an interview with XXL. He revealed that the LP will be “deeper” and more “in-depth” than his previous works.

"I wanna get deeper, you know, let people know where I come from,” he said. “So I want it to be a story on this album…I think on this album I'm just entering a point where I'm willing to go in-depth with it. I feel like if you follow my projects before this one I speak on it a little bit here and there, but I never really go in details and in-depth and give you too much of it. You know what I'm saying? And I feel like this is the album where I'm going to get into it."

He’s also been enjoying the success of “Down In The DM.” On Billboard’s Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop chart, Yo Gotti landed his first No. 1 for “Down in the DM” during its twelfth charting week last month.
