Drake‘s ‘VIEWS’ continues to make a splash on television by way of promotional appearances launched to support it.
Last night was the ‘Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon‘s turn to receive the bearded bop-builder, welcoming him to discuss the polarising set and enjoy a game of Faceketball.
Drop and down and get your clicking on to check it out below…
The Contemporary R&B album received a Metacritic score of 68/100 indicating generally favourable reviews, and stands proud after its opening week sales of 852,000 units booted Beyonce‘s ‘Lemonade’ from the top of the Billboard 200.
That isn’t all.
For, this figure (which doesn’t include stream-equivalent units) saw him sell almost three times as many units as Rihanna’s latest set ‘ANTI’ has sold in five months…in seven days.
Her ‘Work‘-led set, which dropped on January 28th 2016, is yet to cross pure sales of 400,000 units.
What’s a drake?
Gotta love him and congrats to his first week sales! It’s amazing and I’m still blown away by it. Well deserved.
Also his laugh is cute and they both kinda sucked at the faceketball lmao
It’s nice to see a little more of Drake on TV 🙂 Especially seeing that he’s been looking so good lately. Ever since 2014 when he grew a beard, bulked up and updated his style, he’s truly become a heartthrob. Not that he wasn’t one before to some people but now I REALLY SEE IT.
5 months? Really David?
Came out 28th Jan
28 Jan
28 Feb- 1month
28 March- 2months
28 Apr- 3months
28 May- 4months
And on my calander we are still mid-May
So in actual facts the album is 3 and a half months in.
With a huge first single and a great supporting tour.
Why bring down a black woman to bring up a black/mixed race man?
Why put two black woman against each other at all?
Why not just support them and thank God we have these ppl as examples of our greatness?
In the UK we do not have such examples of huge black stars and I find it strange that the ones we see our children see worldwide have to face silly backlashes instead being supportive and motivating them to be greater.
That is why we as a community never get far. We dont support our own and ita crazy.
Anyway congrats to Rih for 2x platinum and the fact she “gave away” 1mill albums speaks for her nature. I dont think it fazes her because she is doing what she loves and making money and making her fam proud.
May is the fifth month of the year honey and Anti has had two years worth of promo. You know David would be the last person to try to bring a black woman down so chalk this up to him sharing the facts.
Yes I am very much aware May is the 5th month of the year.
Being that it was released the 28th of January and by applying simple math and LOGIC
Jan 28th – Feb 28th: 1 month since release
Feb 28th – March 28th: 2 months since release
March 28th – April 28th : 3 months since release
April 28th – May 28th: 4 months since release
Today is the 13th of May so that would make it 3 1/2 months no?
2 years of promo? 4/5seconds, AO and BBHMM came out just last year my dear and there was no CONFIRMED release date of the album until THIS YEAR! I am baffled where you got this 2 year promo from?
Regardless it’s a great time for music right now
Rih, Bey and Drake as black ppl killing it in there own way and on their own terms= Black Power
That’s all it’s about my dear.
Just when you thought this article wasn’t gonna take a turn for Rihanna ! Why am I not surprised !
Man he’s come a long way since playing Jimmy on Degrassi
Nice
