Pooh Shiesty’s ‘All Eyes on Shiest’ Debuts at No. 1 on Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums Chart

Pooh Shiesty secured his first No. 1 spot on Billboard's Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart with his debut album, All Eyes on Shiest, which officially topped the list dated Aug. 22. The album released on 1017/Atlantic Records started the week with an impressive 51,000 equivalent album units in the United States for the tracking week of Aug.

7-13, according to Luminate. A significant portion of the album's success, 49,500 units, came from streaming activity, which equates to over 51.6 million official on-demand streams. One thousand five hundred units were generated from traditional album sales, while a minimal amount was due to track-equivalent album sales. Pooh Shiesty's second appearance on the chart came only a year after his mixtape, Shiesty Season, which debuted at No. 2 in 2021.

In addition to its success on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, All Eyes on Shiest also claimed the No. 1 position on Top Rap Albums for the second time and secured a spot at No. 7 on the all-genre Billboard 200. The rapper is currently the focal point of a federal trial slated for February 2027, following allegations that he and several co-conspirators coerced Gucci Mane into releasing him from his record deal under threat of violence.

Pooh Shiesty has pleaded not guilty to these charges. Notably, 14 tracks from the album made their debut on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, with the most prominent entries being "Last Man Breathin" (No. 11) and "Reap What You Sew" (No. 13). The remaining tracks entered the Hot Rap Songs chart at Nos. 7, 9, 17, 19, 25, 26, 30, 36, 38, 40, and 41.
