TOP 15: VIEWS
FOR MILES
Drake will shatter the one-week streaming record as Views is on track for up to 250m streams in its first week. This is more than double that of Beyoncé’s Lemonade, which just set a new record last week. View’s sales will be the biggest debut for an artist not named Adele or Taylor Swift since Justin Timberlake’s 20/20 Experience debuted with 968k in March of 2013. Here’s how it looks at midweek.
