Pop Smoke’s second posthumous album, Faith, is on pace to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, according to Hits Daily Double.

The 20-track album is set to unseat Olivia Rodrigo’s SOUR album, which has held the No. 1 spot for two consecutive weeks.

HITS is predicting Pop’s album to earn between 110,000-120,000 album-equivalent units. Between 4,000-6,000 of those should come from pure album sales. If true, the late Brooklyn-drill rapper will score his second posthumous No. 1 debut — which is an unprecedented feat, according to Chart Data.

Faith was released Friday (July 16) by Republic Records and Victor Victor Worldwide nearly a year after his first album Shoot For The Stars, Aim For The Moon dropped. The 20-track album is jam-packed with features, including appearances by Rick Ross, The-Dream, Kanye West, Pusha T, Takeoff, Quavo, Chris Brown, Future, Lil Tijay, Swae Lee, Pharrell, Dua Lipa and more.
