Travis Scott is breaking records with his decade-old mixtape as “Days Before Rodeo” which officially reached the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200. The project is now the highest-selling rap album of 2024 and marks Scott’s highest-selling vinyl release of his career. Days Before Rodeo also marks Scott’s fourth consecutive No. 1. following 2023’s Utopia, 2018’s Astroworld, and 2016’s Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight.

“Days Before Rodeo,” was initially released for free on Aug. 18, 2014; it was re-released on all digital streaming platforms for the first time this year on August 23rd to celebrate its 10th anniversary, debuting at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 on September 7th with 361,000 units. In its fourth week of release, the album jumped to No. 1 (after its vinyl editions shipped to customers who had pre-ordered the album before its release). The vinyl, which was sold exclusively in Scott’s webstore, accounts for 149,000 of its 150,000 traditional album sales, making it the top-selling album of the week and becoming the biggest week on vinyl for a rap album since Luminate began tracking in 1991.

“Days Before Rodeo” knocked Sabrina Carpenter’s “Short N’ Sweet” down to No. 2 after three weeks on top of the chart. Chappell Roan’s “The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess” remained at No. 3 with 64,000 equivalent album units, followed by Post Malone’s “F-1 Trillion and Morgan Wallen’s “One Thing at a Time” in spots No. 4 and 5.
