After the somewhat random drop of his most recent mixtapes, If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late and What A Time To Be Alive, all eyes and thoughts have been focused on Views From The 6. Over 2 years since his 3rd album, Nothing Was the Same, for about the past year and more, Drake has steadily been working hard to perhaps deliver his best body of work, to date. Views will likely take that title from Beyonce by the end of this sales week.Deemed as one of the most highly anticipated albums of 2016, Drake’s Views From The 6 is shaping up to be his most successful album to date.

As of right now, Lemonade had the biggest debut week of any album released in 2016 thus far. Bey earned 653,000 equivalent album units in her first week of sales, of which 485,000 of those units were comprised of pure album sales. Drake's album will also almost certainly surpass the first-week sales of another music giant, Beyonce, who released her surprise album, Lemonade, last week. This means that Views will almost certainly surpass Drake's previous best debut week, when he sold 658,000 copies of his 2013 album, Nothing Was The Same. Despite the somewhat lukewarm reception, Drizzy definitely did his thing as it pertains to selling the album, accomplishing a major feat on the album's release date.ĭrake's Views album went Gold in one day, selling over 600,000 copies of the album in its first 24 hours of availability on the Apple Music service. This past Friday, the album many people have been waiting for, was finally released, to generally mixed reviews.

Drake'sfourth studio album Views From The 6 was arguably one of the most anticipated releases of 2016 from the moment the album title was announced back in 2014.
