Drake has the #1 album in the country and nearly breaks the Gold record mark in his first week.
After news broke that his surprise album release set a new benchmark for first-week album streams on Spotify, the official sales numbers are in and Drake’s If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late is the #1 album in the country. Drake’s latest first-week album sales are more than double that of the #2 album on the Billboard 200 and his record-breaking stream count boosted his Total Activity Count even further.
In the same week that his fellow Young Money label-mate Nicki Minaj fell out of the Top 10 entirely with The Pinkprint, Drake’s is the only Hip Hop or R&B album currently in the upper tier of the chart. More than a dozen spots below, J. Cole’s album regained three of the five spots it lost last week while Ne-Yo’s Non-Fiction fell eight.
Lower down the charts, Rae Sremmurd has managed to stay in the Top 40 with just under 6,000 albums sold over the latest sales period and Kid Ink has fallen more than 30 spots since the Top 20 debut of Full Speed last week.
