Future & Metro Boomin Score Biggest Sales Week Of 2024 As 'We Don't Trust You' Goes No. 1

Future and Metro Boomin have landed the biggest sales week of 2024 so far as their joint album We Don’t Trust You has shot straight to number one on the Billboard 200.

According to Billboard, the project debuted with 251,000 equivalent album units, the highest sales week of the year and Future’s second biggest ever behind What a Time To Be Alive, his 2015 collaboration with Drake.

We Don’t Trust You also marks Future’s ninth number one album and Metro Boomin’s fourth.

Most of the sales of the album were powered through streaming, with the LP’s 17 tracks clocking up 324.31 million streams.

The much talked-about “Like That” is also expected to land at number one on this week’s Billboard Hot 100.

The incendiary track, which features a guest verse from Kendrick Lamar aimed at Drake and J. Cole, has already moved over 500,000 equivalent units since its release on March 22. It is the fastest song to hit that milestone in 2024.

On the song, Kendrick took shots at Drake and Cole, first referencing their chart-topping collaboration “First Person Shooter.”

“Yeah, get up with me/ Fuck sneak dissin’, first person shooter/ I hope they came with three switches,” he rapped.

He then spat: “Think I won’t drop the location? I still got PTSD/ Muthafuck the big three, n-gga, it’s just big me/ N-gga, bum, what? I’m really like that/ And your best work is a light pack/ N-gga, Prince outlived Mike Jack.”

The Compton native also referenced Drake’s album For All The Dogs: “N-gga, bum, ‘fore all your dogs gettin’ buried/ That’s a K with all these nines, he gon’ see Pet Sematary.”

While Drake has yet to respond to Kendrick directly, he has made a number of comments that seem to reference his verse.

During a stop on his It’s All a Blur — Big As the What? Tour days after the song’s release, the 6 God made a defiant speech where he declared: “There’s not a n-gga on this Earth that could ever fuck with me in my life!”

He also appeared to call out Future and Metro Boomin, both of whom he’s worked with several times, for “selling” him out.

“I could never sell ya’ll out to sell my latest work,” he wrote on Instagram last week. “Never do you bad out the blue but I’m down to make it worse.”
