MUMBAI: Multi-platinum, Grammy®-nominated artist Logic – among the top streaming artists in the world with billions of streams to date – rockets to a #1 debut on the Billboard 200 albums chart with Bobby Tarantino II, his new mixtape via Def Jam Recordings/ Visionary Music Group.
With over 123 Million on-demand audio streams in its first week, Bobby Tarantino II is Logic’s second Billboard 200 chart-topper in less than 10 months. The project garnered over 100 million streams globally, to become Logic’s highest ever chart debut in international markets such as the United Kingdom, Australia, Sweden, Canada, Norway, and more. The success of Bobby Tarantino II comes on the heels of Logic’s breakout third album Everybody in May 2017. Everybody and the 4x RIAA Certified Platinum single 1-800-273-8255 catapulted Logic to worldwide success for bringing mental health and suicide prevention awareness to the national conversation. The song earned Logic two Grammy® Award nominations – including the prestigious Song Of The Year – and a triumphant closing performance at the 2018 Grammy® Awards.
“In the short time I’ve been a part of the Def Jam operation, Team Logic has impressed me in so many ways,” said Def Jam Recordings Chairman and CEO Paul Rosenberg. “Bobby Tarantino II carries the tradition of Logic’s many great projects and has a lot to offer- we are just getting started.”
