Fortune is shining down on Chris Brown. After his double wins at this
month’s BET Awards, the R&B superstar finds himself back on top of
the charts with his fifth album.
Fortune enters at No. 1 on
the Billboard 200 and R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts with 134,000 copies
sold in its first week, according to Nielsen SoundScan. Propelled by the
singles “Turn Up the Music” and “Till I Die,” the album marks Brown’s
second No. 1 debut following 2011’s Grammy-winning F.A.M.E. (270,000).
In
addition to his success in the U.S., Fortune reigns on top of the
charts in the U.K. and the Netherlands. Brown also scores career bests
in Ireland and France at No. 4, Japan at No. 5, Canada at No. 6,
Switzerland at No. 10, and Germany at No. 13.
