Drake solidifies his heightening relevancy this week, silencing the naysayers with another week at number one on the Billboard 200 with his Platinum selling set ‘VIEWS.’
There’s also good news for chart-topping single ‘One Dance.’
Full story below…
At six weeks, the LP becomes the Toronto native’s longest reign atop the album tally. Drizzy’s fourth studio album sold 135,000 units this week when combining streaming, tracking and sales data.
The feat sees the Canadian become the first male artist to top the chart this long in almost a decade. Prior to now, 50 cent’s ‘Massacre’ and Eminem’s ‘The Eminem Show’ are the last albums to boast this achievement. Selling 32,000 copies in pure sales, 81,000 with streaming and 22,000 in track equivalent units, ‘VIEWS’ passes the test of time and format and is proving its longevity.
On the singles front, the WizKid and Kyla assisted ‘One Dance’ is enjoying similar success.
Sitting at #1 on the Hot 100 for its fifth week (non-consecutively), the dance-floor jam managed the feat by racking up digital downloads of 94,000, 22.5 million US streams, and a radio audience of 154 million.
Slay!

He should’ve performed at Summertime Ball. Everyone would’ve went crazy. Sure beats having Will.I.Am. doing an entire 25+ min. set.
Nice
Congrats. It’s funny how Queen Of Pop Rebel Heart, The Black Madonna’s Anti, Gaga’s Artpop, Ciara and tons of other artist couldn’t outsell Partners by Barbra Streisand. This is embarrassing.
U are so pathetic for that. An album that is like 5months old. You hive members show how insecure yall are when your favorite ent winning like the “queen” yall claim her to be.
What is really embarrassing is a rap artist bodied miss bey by only dropping his album no HBO no Becky…. Just a quality album and not one where there was 500 writers to write ur illiterate favs songs, for her personal album
Im confused what any of this had to do with drake by the way he didn’t need to do no movie and release 13 videos
Wow. the shade was laid on thick
Wow slay Drizz. I just wonder how long his run will last, somebody on Twitter said he’s the new Nelly and we all know Nelly couldn’t stand the test of time.
Nelly ‘s success lasted 4 years. Drake has been consistently successful for 8. All of his albums debuted at #1 and are platinum plus. Soooo what exactly were you saying again ugly?
Death not, Nelly having a better run then CICI.
Nelly’s lasted about 9-10 year’s and has sold almost 22 million in the US alone (pure sales). Drake is doing good, but he hasn’t matched Nelly’s success yet. I like Drake but to me his music is mediocre.
Thank you!! And that’s what i was trying to get at but Molly had to run her b**** ass to my reply section only to self drag for the 100th time.
Nelly debuted in 2000 and became irrelevant around 2004/2005. 10 years my ass Kii.
Drake has SURPASSED Nelly. He may not have a 9 million selling album like nelly but he has shown more longevity. Nellys last platinum album was in 2004. Nelly went out with Ashanti. Girl bye.
Ok, so basically Nelly became irrelevant around the time Ciara did? OK, gotcha.
Ciara is MUCH more relevant than Nelly in 2016, mark troll and that’s a FACT. Even Nellys reality show FLOPPED. Anyway, Ciara has nothing to do with this. We are talking about Nelly and Drake. Stay on topic f*****.
Drakes debut album was 2009, it sold the same as Nelly’s 2008 Brass Knuckles album (gold). In 2010, Nelly’s Just a dream single went to number 3 on the hot 100. He was the decades number 3 artist, behind Eminem and Usher. Credentials are Credentials, no matter the time span and so far, Drake does not have Nelly’s credentials. Why are people so obsessed with this irrelevant thing?
ALL of drakes albums (even a “mixtape” debuted at #1 and went platinum plus. ALL OF THEM. Can Nelly say the same?
Thank Me Later – #1, 1.8x platinum
Take Care – #1, 2.2x platinum
Nothing Was The Same – #1, 1.7x platinum
Views – #1, Platinum
If You’re Reading This Its Too Late – #1, Platinum
What A Time To Be Alive – #1, Platinum
?
Drake: So Far Gone (2009) 639,000
Nelly: Country Grammer, 8,581,000.
Nellyville: 6,488,000
Sweat/Suit: 4,000,000 combined
The reinvention remix album: platinum
Brass Knuckles: 623,000
5.0: 314,000
He’s sold 21,815,000 in the US alone (without shreaming), can Drake say that?
But So Far Gone was not drakes debut album and are we seriously comparing 2000’s sales to 2010 up until now? That’s like how the Britney stans compare her sales to Bey’s. DEATH. Nelly was a pop fad. He could never sit with Jay and Ye like Drake is currently doing now. #AllPlatinum #AllSummer16
That was Drakes first mixtape, you included mixtapes in your comment. Nelly sat with Jay and Ye…Jay even said it in his song Excuse me miss, “only ones moving units is Em, Pimp Juice (Nelly), and us!! Jay and Ye aren’t really releasing music. I wouldn’t even count Ye’s exclusive album. Nelly was out when they were in theur prime and releasing albums back to back. He was still over them as the second top rap artist of the decade. Drake is on his own now, no big names are releasing music.
They do have a right to compare Beyonce’s sells to Britney Spears because Beyonce came out in the early 2000’stages. Plus you have Adele and Taylor, who came after Beyonce, but they continue to sell millions.
But still sis, Nellys platinum plaques HALTED after 5 years. Seven years in and Drake is still getting them consistently. Why is that?
No nelly music was faddish
Drake can adapt to any style Latin to urban to pop
Congrats to Drake but Beyonce is still selling more in physical sales. She sold 47k. She would be killing him if she had her music on all streaming services!!
Still mad I see. Sorry that your “Queen” can’t handle competition.
Mad about what? I was just making a valid point. I also congratulated Drake. I don’t have a reason to be mad, my fave sold more than 400k first week! Anti?? lmaooo
“She would be killing him if she had her music on all streaming services!!”
.
Living in a should’ve, could’ve would’ve world and two exclamation meaning you’re yelling. Sounds mad and bothered to me. Plus bringing up Rihanna to deflect won’t work. that card is so played out.
Honey BYE!!! You’re looking too deep into it. I am not mad at all. My fave is slaying effortlessly. I just made a point that she would be slaying him if her music was on all streaming platforms, ! Don’t talk about competition if your fave can’t compete!
The behave us so sour about Drake stealing her shine. As I said before if her album was on more streaming platforms her pure sales would not be so high.
Shes playing stadiums performing new music. She should b selling more honestly
lmao. How much should she be selling? honey majority of current artists don’t even make it to 47k first week. Her stadium tour has grossed 96 million from 18 shows. She is doing just fine.
Lemonade sold over 600k in its first week and has already reached platinum status in PURE SALES. So how much more are we talking about here?
The sheer desperation of your comment!!!!
He did that
Not every artist can do this in this decade. So only Rihanna and Drake have this feat in 2016 so far.
The only difference is, Drake’s album sold waaaayyyyyy more.
The fact still stands. And Anti sold over 2 million WW. Another fact.
LOL Anti hasn’t even reached gold status. Drake nor Beyonce needed any help. All of their success this era was EARNED. Meanwhile, Rihanna needed assistance from Samsung. FACTS.COM
It’s good to see beyonce and drake killing it , view is defo a contender for Aoty at the Grammys next year. It’s going to be interesting to see even though everyone knows lemonade should win but the Grammys shady AF you never knwp what they might do . Lemonade is most critically acclaimed album of the year and is best selling album released this year WW. Lemonade 1.7 (WW ) views 1.4 WW 25 format deserv to win , it was all hype and only hello is worthy of a win so she will probably take best song / record of the year
She came to slayyyyyyyyyy. #Drakeshia #Views ???????
Btw what do Drake call his fans?? Anyone can you help??
Drake stans don’t have a name
Has CICI found haself a new label? You know you’re a flop when Epic records drops you.
But has Lil gremlin got birbmans díck out of Lil gremlins mouth yet?
H** if your gonna try and drag the first rule is that the dragged isn’t overused. Now go get those rejectes you Stan for a hot. They’re probably big in their foreign country, but in the land of the free there nobodies.
Is Lil Seeizy able to release that album yet?
They’re locals selling out the garden though. When has wayne?
http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/465545/k-pop-hits-madison-square-garden-at-smtown-live
K mart guy, I see your still presse over my brutal honesty. Face the facts Jubilee and her friends will remain local acts and you will deal.
But has wayne sold out the garden?
??
Wayne has to suck dicn to be let out of his birdman 360 deal Ciara took her money and left
Big difference
His only way out is death. Poor that.
Well don drake!
He needed this after th hive stole money from his haus
When will my fave achieve such chart success, definitely not with this mess of an era.
I see little Ms Closet bottom Markiesha is using those darn streaming numbers again. I thought my fellow navy members were against streaming?
Congrats Drake! He is slaying!!
.
Did y’all know Bey is the only black female artists to go Platinum off of pure sales since 2013 which was also her album to go Platinum off of pure sales lol! Slay bish!!
.
She’s also sits pretty at #3 with Katy P for female artists who wrote or co-wrote their #1 hits.
.
Mariah Carey 17
Madonna 10
Bey/Katy 9
.
Kiii meanwhile a certain someone is absent from the list dispite having 14 #1s lmfao!! #Poordat #NothingButAPuppet
.
She’s also the most award female artists this decade at the Grammys along side Basic Swift both tying for 10. But that will change come 2017 ??!
.
Anyteaways Y’all stay safe have fun in the drag wars and be careful out there! ISIS murdering everybody out here smh! #LoveIsLove
By “co wrote”, do you means change:
Hers to Her
He to She
? To!
Maybe! People can just be in the room while the song is being made and get credits on the album dumb dumb. Beyonce more than likely didnt write every lyric but definitely contributed to her own music.
But Rihanna is the first this year to go platinum, PERIOD. 🙂 (No need for marginalization)
Not in PURE SALES! lol.
You cant come for Bey. Lemonade sold waaayyy more than Anti did.
But Adele outsold her in just one week of sales!!!!
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rihanna didn’t.
Typical. Beyonce stans always revert to Rihanna bashing when Adele is brought up. Why is that?
While lil wayne coughing up seizures & cough syrup his biggest successor dominating both charts. Lil wayne last hit was when????
2015 with Nicki’s truffle butter. Now go sit your fat ass down somewhere without causing and category 5 earthquake.
How do you use snapchat?
Lmao
It’s an app that let’s you take photos or videos and either make them your status update or send them directly to people.
–
If you send them to people, the snap will automatically delete itself after 10 – 30 seconds after it has been opened
A status will sit there for 24 hours
I tried and I’m not getting it
Useless hives are crying as usual. Lol…Their grandma is done.Congrats to my King Drake…..8yrs ago though. Lol
How is she done and she’s SELLING more? lol
What,she is selling more than Adele?
Only in your dreams!!!
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who said anything about Adele? You’re an idiot lol
Who in the Ying Yang Twin are you?
In lessor (or better) news Lemonade sitting pretty on ww chart at #2 after 6 weeks. Flop when/where/how/what/who??? Never selling less than 100k each wk in pure sales ww. Poor drake only selling like 70k ww 4 or 5 wks in already passed by lemonade. If platinum ww is 2 mill then lemonade will be plat ww b4 viewerSHIPWRECKED.
But doesn’t the sizurp Stan always drag nicki but wants to use her for “Wayns last hit”
Besides the one spat between me and Abel I’ve never taken shots at Nicki. Maybe if your eyes weren’t so closed you could see that.
Maybe if you didn’t “smells like patchouli oil. Or weed!”, my sinus’ wouldn’t act up and then i’d be able to see properly
I actually smell like Dove Men care body wash and Vaseline, not the regular Vaseline but the one with the Coca Butter.
Chile wtf. Upgrade to LUSH
Right after u upgrade to HUSH, as in HUSH the f*** up and mind your damn business.
Lil Wayne’s last SOLO single was “Believe Me” which flopped like a fish out of water.
Believe me went platinum though and had a higher peak then any of Ciara singles the past 10 years.
You can’t Stan for CICI and call anybody a flop Lmao. It doesn’t work like that you dumb ass trick.
FLOP! Drake replaced Lil Seizy.
And Rihanna replaced CICI expect CICI has no legacy, impact and isn’t getting paid off of Rihanna albums sales.
@JACKED
But CERRORS last solo hit was Pre-Bday. (10+ years ago) during the destiny fulfiled era while drake was still in HS reading making 4 and 5.0 gpas and still being a Nerd
I Bet’s platinum certification says hello you fat heart attack having ass b****. Where’s Sorry on the charts?
Drake was rolling around in a wheel chair on Degrassi at that point in time lol.
Wasn’t the Lil S**** stan mocking Aaliyah’s death last week? Well look who may join her soon. 🙂 #Karma
SCREAMING!
You didn’t XD
You’re confusing me for one of your many enemies on this blog. I’ve never made fun of Aaliyah’s death and would never make fun of anybody’s death. Some of y’all maybe soulless,
But I’m not.
Why would you brag about smelling like vasaline?! The gremlins have low standards
Dyyyyyyyying
Better then Chinese take out eh.
I’m not even Chinese, but Chinese take out smells better than Popeyes on its worst day
Don’t eat chicken nice try though. Like Bruce Lee keep it kicking and go on about you’re day.
LMAOOO @ (Like Bruce Lee keep it kicking and go on about you’re day.)
I can’t! You people on this site are hilarious.
I bet was a FLOP. it literally took 365 days for it to go platinum. Believe Me was platinum in less then 4 months try again Molly.
And by the fith month, Lil seizy was forgotten about again
Kiii. Exactly. Which song will still get play on the radio today??
Too bad nobody can remember those b****** you Stan for. How many Gold or Platinum records do they have in the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA?
Chile Gaga has Hits and multiplatinum albums I America, she has grammys and golden globes.
Rihanna has grammies, hits and multiplatinum albums this decade
Katy Perry is the most streamed person in the world and has 25214521 number ones
@Matt
What has Ciara done?
Ling Ling, maybe you don’t understand English that well, but I said your fave. Stop clinging to American artist and Rihanna and tell me where’s KFlop succes in the USA?
Ok Shaquaan,
Before I had anything kpop related in my Username, I started on th site in 2012 as Himeros- a GAGA Stan. I was always a gaga stan just like I have always stanned my ethic music
Katy ended GaGa though ??✌?️
Chile do you think I care? I Like them both
Sure you do Jackie Chan✌?️✌?✌? I’m done with ya.
I applaud Drake for his charity work.
Charity work you say? That’s defines CICI non existent career perfectly. Has she set a date for that canceled parking lot tour sis?
Sis you stan for a syrup drinking epileptic and a p**** whos afraid of stages. Go have a seat on the shelf next to the Carter V.
It’s called Anxiety you dumb ignorant b****. Maybe if you weren’t trolling on this site 24/7 you could go educate yourself on the topic.
Cry me a f****** river??
I wonder if that river will be longer then CICI career? ???
I cant @SKIDMARK using its own fave CASKET/TOMBSTONE\GRAVES&ASHES-Liyah to drag Lil Seizure’s 3+ yr old Demise. His next seizure will have him join king Vegeta & Raditz & Nappa in HELL!
SCREAMS!!! From this day forth, Marsha can’t feel some type of way about anybody else making a mockery of Aaliyah’s death. Because she just did lol. Disrespecting her own fave’s passing smdh.
The Lil Seizy stan is SEETHING!
At what exactly? Definitely not you and your multiple personalities.
Honey I have you STEAM pressed kii. Proceed ugly!
The delusion, you probably also think CICI next era will be her comeback to huh? Lord knows y’all been saying that since what 2009?
Whether QUEEN sells 200 or 2 million, she will still remain relevant and COINT. Questions? Comments? Concerns?
In 2016 she’s known for having Future’s baby ?? that’s her only lifeline at the moment.
And Seizy F Baby is known for drinking NyQuil and planting his seeds in every light skinned groupie who enters his hotel room.
Lol! You fleahives need to hang your heads in shame! Drake is obliterating Beyawnce on the charts! Poor Beyawnce still can’t get a #1 hit!
@tyler
Ciara created tinashit, Casey, and has more relevance than Lil seizy
what made you come to that conclusion?
Effortless slayage
Congratulations Drake!
Where is Beyonce ft drake – mine, on the charts?
Where is sorry? Where are flopmation? Where is zaddy lessons? Where is floptition?
And screamimg at that power bottom Marquisha dragging himself. God forbid my fave does, but if he does at least he will leave a legacy behind. The only thing Aaliyah left behind was and ex husband who like to p*** on little girls and a memorable Beyoncé interview at the VMA’s.
Drunk in love is like the BIGGEST most pivotal TRAP record of this decade. It defines that whole sound it was proceeded by. Idk what bey needs another #1 hit for. Bish has 9 already, none spending less than 3 wks there for total 56 wks. When bey gets a hit ITS BIG! Not like one dance & hotline bling… CORNEY & FORGETABLE. My fav rappers are all trap (young dolph E40) keep drake.
But where’s sorry on the charts?
Somewhere getting more spends than I Bet
Spends? Kii stay in school sis.
Where’s I Bet on the charts sis?
I Bet is no longer charting sis, but Sorry has dropped into the deep seas of abyss.
YET Sorry peaked higher than any song that HeHe has released in the last 10 years…
And dropped like it had a f****** anchor attached to it a week later.
I Bet flopped like a fish out of water.
Sorry>>>Any song that The Prince has released this past decade
Can the seizure stan please tell me why my local kflops sold out the garden when Lil seizy couldn’t?

Gurl stop ?? Wayne has never had a concert in NY, only in Buffalo and Jersey and has sold out their respective arenas. So stop clinging to that and go get your faves a international hit. Wayne has plenty.

I wonder why you keep coming with the same old tired ass drags? I wonder why Anti- Walls can’t sell 500k in the states? I wonder why Anti Tour is flopping all over America and across the pond? I wonder why the Gavy has to cling to Drake and streams just to compete with Beyoncé? I wonder why you still pretend to be straight, even though your sweater then my Granny’s tea? I wonder sometimes to Marquisha.
I am on the f****** floor lmao
The Pest shows me time after time that they lack reading skills. Somehow I dissed Aaliyah by saying Lil patsey will join her in death soon? Ok…

Y’all could’ve kept this post, Demetrius. Anyways, this Stan war is so tired. Flops of the dead arguing with flops of the bare relevance, I mean…what struggle?
Ended Lemonade.
King of longevity and ANTI still #6, never left the top 10 in 5 months. When will your faves
if it ended lemonade then it must have DEMOLISHED anti lmao.
The real question is lol, WHEN WILL YOUR FAV? Is that Keri eviction notice Hilson in your avi, didn’t Beyoncé end her career a couple of yrs back. I see she’s out in the studio writing apologies songs to Bey lol.
Who are you aviless b**** ?
Queen Keri is fine. Your illiterate favorite didn’t do anything to her career. The Queen has been vacationing and making music.unbothered
LOL @ Queen Keri, girl bye! That peacock has been on vacation for yrs, yeah a vacation from having a career. What happened to that apologie song she had penned to Bey?
You’re delusional poor thing
Lol Sure sis, sure.
That Lil Wayne stan is dragging and knocking out to the depths and beyond LOL I can’t!

Kii creating usernames to give yourself props I see. I’ve always known you were a lame ass b**** but damn…
Only one account h**, I don’t have serval like yourself and Marsha the power bottom.
Oh, Is that right?
B**** shut up log out and sign back in as Molly so I can drag you in that account to.
Gotta give yourself props via fake account? How sad.
What..lol I see this is a norm on this site, people are constantly accusing people of being other people. Back off.
I know it’s your basic @ss because you miss place your commas all the time. Nice try tho.
Whatever girl. I’m not here to try and justify my identity to a bunch of strangers. I’ll just sit back and watch that Wayne stan body you and other’s LOL.
The 12 Years A S**** stan is too easy. Must be sad that Drake is selling all these records and the money is going to Master Birdman instead of Patsey. lol
Oops
Oops is Keri career sis.
The h/I/v and their side b****** are pathetic
@Keri Qween
The irnoy! You aint nothin more than the Navy’s sidekick and you can barely even do that right lol
Death!! Not you calling me a side b****, when all you do is d*** ride the Gavy.
@tyra
Im an honorary Navy member sis. Not a side b**** like your little minions
*in my best Taylor Swift voice* you will never ever ever, be anything honorary. Lol You’re follower. Nothing more, nothing less.
@Tyler sis we all know that Marquisha is that Keri Stan. Nobody in their right mind stans for that peacock looking b****.
@Weezy
I didn’t even know that Tucan Sam had a stan base lol
The weasel fan is pressed as usual kii
I still sent a prayer out for Drakes lessor today
@Tyler right!! You learn something new everyday.
That lessor took your fave on his tour and gave her the biggest hit of her career, don’t forget b****.
Tyra whatever helps you sleep better on your twin sized mattress at night
That wasn’t Keri’s biggest hit like i told you before so carry on
You’re just mad because Big Birds career ended before it had a chance to actually start.
Listen Koon. Keri is a songwriter(unlike the thief you Stan for) she will always have a career and coin.

Weak ? and Here comes Annalise’s s**** kii
Lol sure sis. Now do like your Parakeet fav, and disappear.
“Hello” is way better than “Formation.” Adele’s material is stellar. Beyonce’s album is different in terms of sound. But she isn’t original. Adele’s music has a classic feel to it. Also, a lot of industry people kiss Beyonce’s a**. Adele sold way more albums & her album has been very impactful. Beyonce hasn’t had a huge single at all. Adele is being smart in terms of how she presents her music. So chill with that bs. Congrats to both Beyonce/Drake. Beyonce’s visual which she got from someone else was cool. But that’s the thing that hyped her music. Adele didn’t need that..
Personally, I think that “Hello” sounds like every other song that Adele has released, bland. Would have had a much more raw feel to it had it been sang by a real soul artist like Jazmine Sullivan, Ledisi, or Jill Scott…
Is that some sort of trick question?
I disagree. 25 was very bland. As if she tried to recapture 21’s sound. Lemonade has a higher metacritic score too
Jackie and Matt are giving me LIFE.
This lil s******** stan is forever mentioning my name… #SitDownBottom
Jackie, stop embarrassing yourself sis.
Shouldn’t you be praying for your favs health sis?
This post is STILL happening? Gorl…HOW? Do y’all have lives?
Congrats to Drake
Congrats to Drake! He’s killing it tbh. Couldn’t think of a better person to break Ariana’s #1 album streak
“Know you that B**** when you cause all this conversation”!!! Look @ yall??
