OVO Sound leader Drake’s new Views album is doing things only most recently done by music superstar Adele after toppling its competition in its 12th week of availability.
According to reports, Drake’s latest solo offering has continued to reach new benchmarks atop the overall sales charts.
Drake’s Views stays put at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 for a 12th nonconsecutive week, earning another 85,000 equivalent album units (down 5 percent) in the week ending July 28, according to Nielsen Music. Views has the most weeks at No. 1 for an album by an artist (as opposed to a soundtrack) since Adele’s 21 ruled for 24 weeks in 2011 and 2012. The last male artist to spend more than 12 weeks at No. 1 was Billy Ray Cyrus, with his Some Gave All album (17 weeks) back in 1992. (Billboard)
Drake’s Views sold nearly 90,000 copies in its 11th week of availability.
Drake’s Views remains steady at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart for an 11th nonconsecutive week, as the set earned another 89,000 equivalent album units (down 3 percent) in the week ending July 21, according to Nielsen Music. Views has now earned the most weeks at No. 1 for an album since Taylor Swift’s 1989 spent its 11th and final week atop the list on the chart dated Feb. 21, 2015. The last album to lead for more than 11 weeks was the Frozen soundtrack (13 weeks, 2014). (Billboard)
Recently, vixen Amber Rose revealed her involvement on Drake’s chart-topping album.
A few weeks ago, Views fell from grace after battling it out with rock group Blink-182.
After nine weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, Drake’s Views is dethroned from the top slot by Blink-182’s new set, California. The latter debuts at No. 1 with 186,000 equivalent album units earned in the week ending July 7, according to Nielsen Music. (Billboard)
Drizzy hopped onto Instagram in early July and celebrated Views‘ nine straight weeks atop the sales chart.
