Since the release of his album ULTRA on March 5, Booba never ceases to be talked about. And for good reason, his project is a real success on streaming platforms. The rapper from ’92 even made the world’s best start on Spotify.
It was the event of the beginning of the year: the release ofULTRA, the tenth and last album of Booba. After more than 25 years of career, the rapper decided to end with this opus, which is available since Friday, March 5. And the least we can say is that his fans have responded, especially on Spotify.
Booba: best start in the world for “ULTRA”
On the famous streaming platform, the rapper grabbed first place in the ranking of weekly album releases. The 44-year-old artist has thus beaten big international names, such as Camilo, Quinn XCII, Zara Larsson or Tory Lanez.

But that’s not all. The Duke of Boulogne also managed to place his single Mona Lisa (in feat with JSX) at the tenth position of the world’s best weekly starts. Booba finds himself in the midst of several planetary artists, such as Drake and his three tracks from his EP Scary Hours.

Lmid-week figures have not been released
To have the first sales figures, we will have to wait until Friday, March 12. Like every week, the SNEP (National Union of Phonographic Publishing) reveals the figures of each album after seven days of exploitation. However on Monday, accounts on social networks give figures “mid-week”, allowing to get an idea on the number of copies that will be sold at the end of the week.
But concerning Booba, no estimate has been released. Questioned by internet users who demanded these famous midweek sales figures, the SNEP decided to clarify the situation. “There are no mid-week figures neither for the ULTRA album, nor for anyone, like every week. Mid-Week rankings are work tools that are not intended for the public. “, can we read on Twitter.
Finally, the SNEP specified: “We never release Mid-Week numbers, you can check on our Twitter account. If there are any leaks, they don’t come from us ”.
Good evening, there are no Mid-Week figures neither for the ULTRA album, nor for anyone, like every week.
Mid-Week rankings are work tools that are not intended for the public. Good evening ????
