YOUR TOP 20:
CERTIFIED HUGE

Drake’s Certified Lover Boy (OVO/Republic) will open with a total at or north of 600k, based on its first four days of streaming and sales. Drake’s previous proper album, Scorpion (YMCMB/Republic), set the record for first-week streams with 746m. CLB is on track for 680-700m streams, making it the second-most streamed debut thus far.

In California news, proponents of the recall of Gov. Newsom are now claiming the election is rigged, because of course they are.
