Say what you want about DJ Khaled‘s tenth album Grateful, but don’t deny that the man, born Khaled Mohamed Khaled, knows how to put together a star-studded cast of rap heavyweights and superstars.

The two-disc album packed a lot of power, with everyone from Rihanna and Bryson Tiller (“Wild Thoughts“) to JAY-Z, Beyoncé, Quavo, Chance the Rapper, Nas and much, much more showing up for support.

Today, Billboard reports that Grateful has pushed “149,000 equivalent album units,” with 50,000 accounted as traditional album sales.

This marks the second number one album for Khaled, following 2016’s Major Key.

Congrats to Khaled. No shade, but we’ll see how those numbers reflect when 4:44 shows up on the charts next week.
