Despite being on shelves for less than a full day, Drake‘s heavily teased, long-awaited sixth studio album – the September 3-released ‘Certified Lover Boy’ – is already a certified SMASH hit.
And though ‘CLB’ has already topped the real-time iTunes sales tallies of over 30 countries (including his native Canada and the United States), its true crowning glory comes from its unrivaled performance on streaming outlets like Apple Music and Spotify.
Details inside:
Apple Music had already announced that every song on the 21-track effort had occupied the top 21 positions of its real-time chart by the time they circled back to confirm it had broken their single-day streaming record.
See the tweets below:
While they did not specify the actual streaming figure, longtime fans of Drizzy know ‘Scorpion’ set the single-day record with 170 million streams in 2018 – meaning ‘Certified Lover Boy’ was greeted with GARGANTUAN numbers.
But wait…there’s more.
Drake took to social media to share Spotify had unveiled similar news.

We may not know what the project’s official first-week sales projection is until later this weekend, but what’s for sure is ‘CLB’ will likely arrive at #1 on the Billboard 200 with the year’s highest inaugural sales week figures.
If accomplished, it will snatch the title from Drizzy’s current rival, Kanye West. Click here to stream ‘CLB.’
yeah because they offered it for free for a week on their platform.
all these fake accolades, i’m sooo tired of em all. throw all these awards/titles in the trash.
Very disappointed, the album shows no growth. Vulgar and only few decent songs. Drake just wants to collect the money, the end of his career is near!
Congrats but I hate the album cover with passion. 🤰🏿🤰🤰🏻🤰🏼🤰🏽🤰🏾 Who came up with this 💩
Let’s go Drake!!!!!! 💕
Certified ♥ Boy 💯

Go listen to it on low quality Spotify with your cheap $100 Sony headphones, thinking yo “equipment” is high end 🤣
My equipment gets updates. Future proof. You worry about that bad karma. And we know you can’t afford it. I’m telling the truth and you are just lying. You are evil. I’m blessed. And you are losing in 2021.✌️

Oh b***** PLEASE! Sony’s ish colors the sound with far too much eq-ing and too much bass, it’s not audiophile level…. Shows you like a CHEAP sound. But then you do listen to CHEAP music like Justin Bieber so why would you need audiophile level equipment…
You are a typical sheep who uses Spotify (320kbps M** and that’s with a Premium account 🤣), you didn’t deny it, and therefore you don’t need high end equipment.
All modern equipment gets updates, but only for so long.
Keep using your cheap $100 headphones. Again, you didn’t deny the cost.
I and millions of audiophiles prefer Sony™. Especially when they enjoy synthwave. And no bass KEF fell off decades ago… Lol Don’t worry about Prince Justin. 👑 You tell that heffa Lana Del Ray to call Justin Parker or keep flopping. ❤️

Audiophiles prefer Sony? Now I KNOW you ain’t no ish! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
*know
Yeah, your no bass, no synth, no hip hop, no movie scores type….. Only folk music loving 60’s Beatles catalog sounding audiophiles. Thank God for Sony™ and Giorgio Moroder lmao!!!! 💕 SONY GIVES ME ORGASMS!!! 💕
Stop perpetrating with your Beats By Shayla ™ lmao
That’s why such a thing as a SUBWOOFER exists, hunnie! And you get it dialled in just enough to blend in with the speakers to fill in the lower end that speakers can’t take care of alone. You don’t want BOOM BOOM unless you’re a 15 year old in the hood… maybe you are? 🤣 The KEFs go far bassy ENOUGH but what you DON’T WANT is SYNTHETIC and OVER-POWERING bass. That’s not how it sounded to the artists in the studio when they were recording. And don’t you want the heat the music as close as possible to how the artist intended?
Nah just stick to Spotify with M** quality and budget Sony headphones in your case.
*don’t you want to hear
Shut up you red bunion heels hanging off 60’s clogs with an old spice deodorant wearing stringy red toed sandal husband listening to age of aquarius assss….. Lmao
Drake whooping your hating asssss and you are deflecting. Lmao
You walk in my home and try to take my Sony™ equipment I’m laying hands you. You are jealous with your mismatched dirty fonky audio shelf.
😂
👑
Audio shelf? Now WHO from the 60s you old ass ghetto bîtch! SCREAMING 🤣
I just won. I struck a nerve. Yeah, you got a dirty fonky audio shelf. I’m modern and you are old school. Sony™ has it on lock. And if you don’t think Sony ™ + Sade doesn’t sound exactly like the band intended…. Gurl bye. And yo bass is weak…. Lmao.

You are brain DEAD 🤣 That is all 💋
You are Night Of The Living Dead. 👻
