BigXthaPlug Matches His Billboard 200 Peak With “Better Over Time”

BigXthaPlug has tied his highest Billboard 200 position. “Better Over Time” enters at No. 7 on the chart dated November 14, 2026, giving the Dallas rapper his third top-10 album. Billboard’s Keith Caulfield reports that the project earned 35,000 equivalent album units in the United States during the tracking week ending November 5th.

The result matches the No. 7 peak of 2025’s “I Hope You’re Happy” and follows the No. 8 showing for “Take Care” in 2024. Across those three projects, BigX has built a run of top-10 openings while moving between rap and country collaborations.

Streams Lead the First-Week Total

Billboard’s chart report puts streaming-equivalent units at 29,000, generated by 29.06 million on-demand official streams. Album sales supplied another 6,000 units. The streaming total places “Better Over Time” at No. 7 on Top Streaming Albums, while the sales figure sends it to No. 12 on Top Album Sales.

A Guest List That Crosses Musical Lines

The current Apple Music edition runs 19 tracks and approximately 45 minutes. Leon Thomas joins BigX on “No Limit,” Ava Max appears on “Burn,” and GloRilla guests on “FAF.” Fridayy contributes to “Heal Me,” while Lil Wayne joins Belly Gang Kushington on the closing “Lite” remix.

Those pairings give listeners several routes into the album. A singer-led collaboration, a rap guest verse and a remix each bring a different voice into BigX’s catalog. The expanded edition’s November 2nd date also helps listeners identify which version they are seeing when browsing the track list.

The chart result adds a commercial follow-up to PowerPage’s recent Power Mic Check feature, which explored BigXthaPlug’s call for more fun in hip-hop. Readers can revisit that conversation alongside the new album to hear how the artist’s stated priorities connect with the music now reaching his audience.
