Offset’s ‘Haunted By Fame’ Misses Billboard 200 as He Calls It a Contract-Exit Mixtape

First-week sales reportedly fell below 8,000 units after a surprise, low-promo Halloween release.

Overview

  • The Oct. 31 project arrived through UMG with little advance notice and did not enter the Billboard 200.
  • Offset wrote “Mixtape to get out my deal” on Instagram, casting the release as a business move.
  • Sales reports pegged first-week activity at under roughly 8,000 units, a steep drop from Kiari’s 29,000-unit debut.
  • The tracklist includes features from NBA YoungBoy, Lil Dump, and NoCap.
  • Offset faces a pending lawsuit from security guard Jim Sanchez over an alleged LAX dispensary altercation, which he denies, and he publicly rejected rumors of refusing a $10 million divorce settlement from Cardi B.
