Drake's surprise album If You're Reading This It's Too Late blasts in at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart as expected, easily scoring the hip-hop star his fourth chart-topper.

The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week based on multi-metric consumption, which includes traditional album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). If You're Reading This It's Too Late moved 535,000 units in the week ending Feb. 15, according to Nielsen Music, with pure album sales comprising 495,000 of that figure -- all from digital downloads.

Drake's Surprise Album Sets Spotify Records

Industry forecasters had projected the set to sell over 500,000 copies, but it fell just short of that half-million threshold. Still, it's a remarkable start for an album that arrived with no notice, was sold only through digital retail, is termed a mixtape by Drake (and not a proper studio album) and only had a little more than three days of sales powering its debut. The new set was released in the evening of Thursday, Feb. 12 through Young Money/Cash Money/Republic Records. The tracking week ended at the close of business on Sunday, Feb. 15.

A physical release for the album on CD or vinyl has not been announced.

If You're Reading This It's Too Late follows Drake's three earlier No. 1-debuting albums, which also happened to be his first three full-length efforts: Thank Me Later (released in 2010), Take Care (2011) and Nothing Was the Same (2013).

Drake's fourth studio album, Views From the 6, is due out later this year. It was announced last July."

I understand the hate on the internet tho. Internet forums are mostly dudes who are here to express their feelings and opinions no one cares about to a bunch of people who don't know them :mjlol:

Random nobodies thinking buying Dr. Dre's TPAB and sitting around with two buddies smoking a 10sac of some shytty weed and discussing their dumbass opinions on the world makes them enlightened:mjlol::francis:

Drake haters furious in here :mjlol:


His entire mixtape, including skits, were in billboard at the same damn time :damn:


He's got several songs still in rotation on major urban radio playlists :heh:


But nobody listens to Drake and he has no impact :mjpls:



That Fetty Wap My Way remix is getting heavy burn, meanwhile every DJ cuts right to Drakes part then skips to another song
:to:
Bruh, I was at a cookout where the DJ played nothing but the chorus and Drake's shyt :dead:

Well, it's been the highest selling by a pretty wide margin, however much weight you put into those sort of things (920K to the 2nd highest, Kendrick at 586K).
