Travis Scott’s highly anticipated project, JACKBOYS 2, has secured the top spot on the Billboard 200 albums chart for the week ending July 17, marking Scott’s second consecutive No. 1 debut for the JACKBOYS collective.

The album earned an impressive 232,000 equivalent album units in its first week in the U.S., according to Luminate.

Announced in March and released on July 13, JACKBOYS 2 boasts a five-day activity window, given most albums typically launch on Fridays.

The latest chart features a dynamic top 10, including five new entries—a rare feat in over two years—and a re-entry of a previous top performer. Notable debuts include Justin Bieber’s surprise album SWAG at No. 2, which also claims the No. 1 spot on Top Streaming Albums thanks to Bieber’s biggest streaming week ever. Clipse’s Let God Sort Em Out debuts at No. 4 after nearly 16 years, and TWICE’s THIS IS FOR enters at No. 6. Additionally, ATEEZ’s GOLDEN HOUR: Part.3 re-enters at No. 7 following a deluxe reissue, and GIVĒON’s BELOVED debuts at No. 8.
