Rapper Post Malone is still riding high on streaming and singles sale for his latest release, “Rockstar.” But Macklemore cracks the No. 4 spot after releasing his second LP, Gemini, with strong album sales as well as streaming activity. It’s Macklemore’s first LP since splitting with former collaborator Ryan Lewis.
Kevin Gates takes the No. 5 spot following the release of a new mixtape called By Any Means 2, with features from 2 Chainz, Plies and Doe B.
