Lil Baby’s FRESH topped Apple Music’s live U.S. Top Albums list in a Sunday, November 8 check, two days after its release. Apple lists the album at 17 songs and 47 minutes. The placement is a snapshot of one service’s U.S. chart, not an album-sales report or a Billboard 200 result.

A fast start on one service’s charts

The same page’s Top Songs list put seven FRESH tracks among its first 12: “Mr. Do Something” at No. 1, “Top Uh It” at No. 3, “Dead Fresh” at No. 4, “All My Partnas” at No. 6, “Burnt Shit” at No. 7, “Ain’t Goin” at No. 11 and “Be The One” at No. 12. Those positions can change; they describe Apple Music’s U.S. ranking at the time of the check.

The collaborations include Future, Young Thug and Rylo Rodriguez on “All My Partnas,” with Rylo also appearing on “In Your Head.” Universal Music Canada credits producers including Metro Boomin, Pharrell Williams and London on da Track; Apple identifies Metro on closer “Keep Goin.” The check captures the album at No. 1 while several of its individual cuts rank alongside it.
