NEW RELEASES: DRAKE'S BIG BOY

With his first day U.S. streams over 230 million, Drake’s Certified Lover Boy (OVO/Republic) is headed for a massive debut—the biggest since Taylor Swift’s folklore (Republic) opened with 846k in July of last year. CLB is projected to collect between 650-700m streams by week’s end.

Drake (OVO/Republic) 575-625k total activity, 45-55k albums


As we reported earlier, Drake has shattered streaming records at both Apple Music and Spotify in CLB's first 24 hours. Check out the links below for all the Drake action. Now if you'll excuse us, we're going to attempt to stop counting streams for a few hours.
