While a number of female artists struggle to go toe to toe with Beyonce it seems she had found a healthy rival in her ‘Mine’ collaborator Drake.
How and why?
The entertainer’s LP is currently outselling ‘Lemonade’ in the United Kingdom and is now unlikely to push the album away from the top spot when the market’s albums chart is updated on Friday.
“One Dance” claimed the highest number of streams of a single in a week ever on Friday with 7.86m – beating Adele’s record of 7.32m with “Hello” (XL). Drake’s track has notched up 64k combined chart sales since Friday, ahead of Harris and Ri Ri’s second collaboration.

Lmfao!!! You are one stupid bitxh! Exactly how does one cling to somebody they are dragging??? Btw Beyoncé is clearly snatching all her #1 positions back. Drake after 6 days is already lost hold of half his #1 positions. Drake has the #1 album in 47 countries Beyoncé has the #1 album in 42 after 10 days.
LOL AND HE’S STILL SELLING MORE THAN KOOLAID LOL.
AND HE STILL HAS PHYSICAL COPIES COMING. P*** WATER DOESN’T STAND A CHANCE LMAO

“one dance for you”
Congratulations it all his hype too u dont know it will end number one for upcoming weeks good everybody is not adele lol
The definition of hype. And the modest reviews shows it. The album has a score of 72 with 18 critics. I
And Based on the way averages work out, he won’t be moving out of that range. According to LB, the album’s a masterpiece- “best album of the year”. Hmmm… ?
LOL DEATH @ DRAKE PISSING IN KOOLAID ALL ACROSS THE WORLD LMAO.
ROACH NEST MELTDOWNS AND DESPERATE CLINGING TO RIHANNA SOON TO FOLLOW, STAY TUNED LMAO.
Drake is a smart business man he did not jump on tidal whack ass that’s why Jay pissed at him Jay tried courting Taylor remember that pic him and bey took with her but they refuse to buy into that sinking ship look at drake best decision he ever made iTunes went hard Jay think because you black people should by into your business it proves is big lip can’t run his business now he getting ready to sell to Samsung everyone comes for rih about streaming it’s helping all your favorite who would not be on the Billboard chart and rih been getting number ones before streaming started to be counted rih pave the way for everyone
Perhaps the memory evades me but I think it’s been a while since Bey has dealt with this much competition on the album charts. Congrats to Drake. His opening week track record is flawless. Unlike in the past when an album could debut at #20 with less than a 100,000 copies but still go on to sell upward of 3 million in the U.S., in today’s music market your first week is CRUCIAL. Once you can nail those first seven days, you’re set. I’ve listened to VIEWS and I’m not really feeling it. It’s too long and it feels like I’ve heard it all before. Still, he’s at the top of his game. Kudos to him.
I bought his album and I actually like it. I’m going to the tour in August as well. Can’t believe im saying this. I never noticed him or his music. I would always skip over his music when it came on but I’m really feeling one dance and too good featuring Rihanna.
Oh my lmao
SLAY DRAKE!!!!?
Bey about to slay the girls on the albums and singles charts! And she’s not even trying! Lol!
Lol@the fleahives lying that Drake’s have hype is dying down when he’s already pushing platinum while Beyonce isn’t even expected to go platinum her second week!
What happened fleahives? How come Drake is slaying? I thousands Bey came to slay? Lol!
*thought*
Damn, Drakeisha really sold off that soul and that yellow hairy butthole for these massive numbers! You better get it girl! I’m sure that hole has been werked deeper than a crew of miners! Yaaaassss u better get yo coins you yella bearded hamster you!
LOL *CRICKETS FROM THE ROACH MOTEL LMAO….
Dear TGJ, why don’t y’all post about Bey topping Australian and Canadian Album Chart? Drake was dethrone in Australia. And Bey sold 30k so far in UK. In its second week w/o promotion and hit singles.
As for US. #53 BEYONCÉ (120 Weeks, no longevity)
Beyawnce still hasn’t gone gold in her second week and the fleahives still claim she’s slaying! Lol!

Worry about lemonade and that 50% drop in sales next week
This is way too funny. Drake didn’t need paid for reviews or struggle for 700K HBO viewers and yet he is slaying Koolaid like it’s nothing.
‘
I now see why Yonce does her best to avoid competition.
Drake promoted his damn album for two whole years, s***, he should be selling more than that, unlike beyonce she didnt even promote her album and she did damn good. I like both artist btw, but bey is in a league of her own. promoted albums vs non promoted albums doesnt even compare. And for the record Bey surpass the 550,000 that she was expected to sale anyway and most were pure album sales.
Now Jay Z is coming out with his own “Lemonade” according to the media. These two are money hungry buffoons
Meanwhile formation is still number 2 on us iTunes and still in top 5 across the world (This song was free for 3 months) 3 other songs from lemonade are still in the Top ,Lemonade isit still number one 11 days later in more counties than Drakes Album and in number 2 in every other country Drakes number one in gradually claiming it’s number one slots, I don’t know why haters will do anything to drag this woman down, she is indeed slaying…
Did the album sell like 100k per day despite the first day is 600k??
I was thinking the same thing. Because if he sold that much his first day you’d think he’d have crossed the 1 million mark at the latest Monday or Tuesday.
Does this mean that Lemonade wont be #1 its first charting wk in the uk? If not then this post is very petty. Rap didnt fall off R&B did yet bey still debuting high unlike any other r&b artist. But aside from that Self Titled outsold all Drakes albums in the US WW & probably UK too. I do like that they are both giving eachother healthy competition. I just think drake has more to worry about than the otherway arround. I mean it was Bey that knew When Drake was gonna drop, she knew she would collide with drake. Drake is in for it week two lol plus their physical on same day. Very interesting from a competitive stand point but with 20 so so songs its apparant whos really winning.
This post is pointless if Lemonade wont be #1 in the UK. If its simply knocked by drake its 2nd wk this post is unnesary Baiting as if Drake is some huge seller. He doesnt even outsell Grandpa Jayz or Eminem. Probably not DR DRE either. Drake is all front loaded HYPE & extremely overrated. I been over him since Take care. He is a cheese cake Factory & not in a good way *sips lemons*
He beat one of Adele’s records? WOW! The song is fire though so that’s not surprising. Also, it seems that Drake has a ridiculous amount of loyal fans and overall public interest in his music so good for him. I really respect how he’s just himself and not trying to mold into some hard or gangsta persona like 90% of these other rappers are doing.
*Sidenote-that’s also some nice photography of him
Beyonce is hype and trash at the same same time
Drake is hype and trash at the same same time
Drake really should have been number 1 in all countries for a while. The fact that he is just as big, and his album came out a week later. I’m happy for him, he is doing what he has to do. But he really should be doing better on ITunes, seeing as how it is the only platform his album is on. However I cant wait for the next award season. Album of the Year is going to be incredible. Bey, Drake, Rih, Adele. IDK who else big is coming out this year, but it’s already looking pretty good.
Drake album isn’t bad its good songs
