However, Trippie was able to secure his fifth Top 5 album in less than three years. Pegasus opened at #2 on the Billboard 200. The project collected 60,000 equivalent album units in its initial week.

Pegasus features contributions by PartyNextDoor, Chris Brown, Rich The Kid, Young Thug, Future, Quavo, Lil Mosey, Busta Rhymes, Lil Wayne, and more. Trippie Redd also dropped the 6-track EP titled Spooky Sounds on October 23.
