"Racks In The Middle" marked the last single Nipsey released while he was living. Its leap on the chart is largely due to streaming numbers which increased by 44% this week. Additionally, it jumped from 14 to 7 on the Rap Streaming Songs chart.

What's even more impressive is that "Racks" has leaped into the top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song is currently sitting at #26 after sitting at #44. It's also in the top 10 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop songs.

While the song's been doing well on the charts, his debut studio album, Victory Lap has maintained a position in the top 10 of the Billboard 200.

Following the rapper's death, Victory Lap re-entered the Billboard 200 at #2 while four other projects of his -- Slauson Boy, Crenshaw, The Marathon, and Mailbox Money -- made their way on the chart for the first time ever
