Solange Hits No.1 On Billboard Charts with ‘A Seat at the Table’
Since the release of Solange‘s A Seat At The Table, social media has been in a whirlwind – from comparing the project to her sister Beyonce‘s Lemonade, to rants by fans on how proud they were of the celebration of black magic.
Serving as her fourth studio album (third full-length project), A Seat at the Table has landed the Saint Heron songstress at number one on the Billboard charts, beating Bon Iver’s 22, A Million. Iver’s third album was initially predicted to take the number one spot, but fell short at number two.
According to Nielsen Music, A Seat at the Table sold 72,000 album units in the first week (46,000 in traditional album sales), while Bon Iver’s 22, A Million, followed behind with 71,000 units (58,000 in traditional album sales).
A Seat at the Table just three days before its release on digital retailers and streaming services via her independent label Saint Heron, distributed by Columbia Records. This serves as a follow up to her 2012 EP, True.
Physical copies of A Seat at the Table will release November 18th.
After dropping “Euphoria” earlier this week, Kendrick Lamar returns with his second Drake diss, “6:16 in LA.” Drawing from Drake’s signature style of titling tracks with time stamps in various cities, such as “5 am in Toronto” and “6 PM in New York,” Lamar’s latest diss track pays homage to the legendary Tupac Shakur, whose birthday falls on June 16th. This subtle nod to Tupac, on what would have been his 53rd birthday, finds Kendrick Lamar doubling down on his “hate” for Drake.

For the last few weeks, Drake has been on Kendrick Lamar‘s head since his diss on Metro Boomin and Future‘s We Don’t Trust You track, “Like That.” After Drake returned fire with two diss tracks titled, “Push Ups” and “Taylor Made Freestyle,” Kendrick Lamar returns with with a six minute diss track towards Drake titled, “Euphoria.”
“This ain’t been ’bout critics, not about gimmicks, not about who the greatest/It’s always been about love and hate, now let me say I’m the biggest hater/ I hate the way that you walk, the way that you talk/I hate the way that you dress,” Kendrick spits, referencing DMX’s 2012 interview on The Breakfast Club.
Kendrick also mentions J. Cole on the track, rapping: “Cole and Aubrey know I’m a selfish guy, the crown is heavy/I pray they my real friends, if not, I’m YNW Melly.“
