Tyler, the Creator’s Grammy-winning LP Call Me If You Get Lost has reclaimed its spot at the top of the Billboard 200. The album, which debuted at No. 1 shortly after its release in 2021, has jumped from No. 120 to No. 1 on the chart due to massive vinyl sales, as Billboard points out. The LP edition of the record was sold exclusively through Tyler’s website. Citing Luminate (formerly MRC Data), Billboard reports that his web store moved 49,500 physical copies, making it the largest sales week for a hip-hop album on vinyl.

Call Me If You Get Lost is Tyler’s second No. 1 LP following 2019’s Igor. Both records nabbed the Best Rap Album award at the 2022 and 2020 Grammys, respectively. According to Billboard, Call Me If You Get Lost is only the fourth album to return to No. 1 after its vinyl release, following Taylor Swift’s Evermore, Olivia Rodrigo’s Sour, and Swift’s Fearless (Taylor’s Version).
