The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, Billboard R&B Charts, and Billboard Hot Rap Songs, marking the first time a rapper was able to score two number one albums in a year, in 11 years, since Jay Z back in 2004. The album debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart, with 153,000 units in its first week, becoming Future's seventh consecutive album to debut at number one. He gained popularity after his songs were played by DJ Esco at Magic City, a strip club in Atlanta deemed 'largely responsible for launching the careers of artists. Since then his work ethic has driven him to his success. But it’s Future talking candidly about formative life moments-selling drugs, getting shot, his grandfather’s passing-that demonstrate his passion and desire to stay on top. Though Future had told MTV that Streetz Calling would be his final mixtape prior to the release of his debut studio album, another mixtape, Astronaut Status, was released in January 2012. In 2016, Future became the fastest artist to chart three number-one albums on the Billboard 200 since Glee soundtrack albums in 2010. In December 2011, Future was featured on the cover of Issue #77 of The FADER. : The Movie which features the artists signed to his Freebandz label: Young Scooter, Slice9, Casino, Mexico Rann and Maceo. With the release of The Wizrd, several songs from the album charted on the Billboard Hot 100, leading to Future becoming the artist with the 10th most entries in Hot 100 history.
