His previous effort, 2018\u2019s Testing<\/em>, peaked at number four on the chart.<\/p>\n Pretty Flacko\u2019s partner Rihanna wasted little time in celebrating her man\u2019s chart success, writing on X (formerly Twitter): \u201cJust me here to let yall know my baby daddy got the NUMBER 1 ALBUM!!! Aaahhhhhh hah!
