The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 with the second-largest streaming week for an album of all time and with 480,000 units sold. On September 13, 2019, 20 songs from the original version of Tha Carter V were leaked online, containing many unreleased tracks compared to the official version of Carter V that was released in 2018. more »
