Chart Check [Billboard 200]: Drake Drops From #1 After 9 Consecutive Weeks

Published: Thursday 14th Jul 2016 by Rashad

The Billboard 200 reign of Drake‘s fourth studio album, ‘Views,’ has been nothing short of historic.

Topping the tally for a whopping 9 consecutive weeks, the project has undoubtedly set the streaming bar extremely high for any act to follow.  With over 1 billion collective streams of its content, as of time reporting ‘Views’ has “sold” a cool 2.5 million units (with only half of that figure coming from traditional sales).

However, as the age old adage goes, all good things must come to an end.  For, as previously reported, rock group Blink 182 rocked the rapper’s tenure at the top this week with their latest project.  But, fans of Drizzy needn’t worry.  Reports are already indicating he will most likely be #1 again next week.

Until then, see this week’s updated chart below:
