Post Malone’s Twelve Carat Toothache debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart.

The album was initially released as a 14-track album, with a deluxe version featuring two extra songs on June 7, with features from Roddy Ricch, Doja Cat, Gunna, The Weeknd, The Kid LAROI and Fleet Foxes. It's Post Malone’s fourth straight Top 5 album, but Bleeding debuted at No. 1 and spent five weeks in the top spot.

Twelve Carat Toothache was beaten by Bad Bunny’s Un Verano Sin Ti, which returned to the top last week.

“You think about everything at the same time, and it’s fucking overload,” Post Malone revealed about chart success. “There’s a lot riding on the music. There’s a lot riding on just being able to keep making songs. And that’s hard to do because you’re like, ‘Fuck — I already talked about everything.’ And you kind of run out of ideas, and that’s scary shit. Trying to shove 20 to 25 songs, it doesn’t work. Talking to the label [it’s like], ‘Oh, if you have less songs, you’re not going to stream as much,’ but the whole thing is that you don’t want to compromise your art and your gut vibe on anything. I’ve made a lot of compromises, especially musically, but now I don’t feel like I want to anymore. I don’t need a No. 1; that doesn’t matter to me no more, and at a point, it did.”
