After welcoming major first week sales last week, Drake‘s ‘If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late’ continues to rock and roll on the Billboard 200 this week!

For, before his rivals Chris Brown and Tyga impact the chart with their new album ‘Fan of a Fan’, the ‘What If I Kissed You’ performer has sold 187,000 units of ‘Late’ in its second week, pushing it to sales of 624,000 units ten days after it was turned over to digital retailers.
