Billboard 200: Drake Debuts at #1 with ‘Honestly, Nevermind’ Album

Published: Sunday 26th Jun 2022 by Sam

Drake may have polarized opinions with his surprise Dance-drenched album ‘Honestly, Nevermind,’ but one reality that has stayed the same is his reign atop of the charts.

For, the LP has launched at #1 on the Billboard 200. 

Full story below…

With the final numbers tallied and verified, ‘Honestly’ has flowed straight in at pole position with equivalent sales of 204,000 units.

As has become customary with Drizzy, streaming led the charge.

Indeed, 250.23 million streams of the album’s 14 tracks accounted for 191,000 units. A whopping 94% of the overall total.

‘Honestly, Nevermind’ becomes the Canadian superstar’s 11th #1 on the coveted count.

********

Renowned for delivering gargantuan sales, Drake’s latest opening sum with ‘Honestly’ serves as the smallest of any of the rapper’s full-length solo efforts. Rather, its launch performance is on par with that of the ‘Dark Lane Demo Tape’ mixtape – which premiered with 223,000 in 2020.

Time will tell whether the ‘Falling Back’ led set will sustain in the weeks and months ahead.
