Blink-182 just did what Blake Shelton, Ariana Grande and Red Hot Chili Peppers couldn’t: unseat Drake from the top spot of the Billboard Top 200 albums chart.
The California rock band ended Drake’s domination of the chart after a nine-week streak that hit several milestones. Last week, VIEWS became the third-place Hip Hop album with the most weeks at the top of the chart, behind only Vanilla Ice’s To The Extreme and MC Hammer’s Please Hammer Don’t Hurt Him.
Despite being bumped from the top, Drizzy’s album numbers actually went up six percent since last week and still almost doubled the numbers of the new Maxwell album, which sits in the third spot.
Logic and Desiigner both saw their new projects debut on the chart, at #16 and #22 respectively.
Snoop Dogg’s Coolaid album debuts at #40, selling 11,127 album equivalent units. After its initial release to Apple Music, the LP was played nearly three million times across all streaming platforms.

I support u nigga thou… imma big hell of a fan …. people are just being fucken jealous

Drake will forever go down in history as number 3. Right behind MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice. LOLOLOL. It is what it is…
We all know the only reason why Drake was up there is because the RIAA put sales on easy mode by adding stream to it. Drake puts out a below par album right after they changed it and the rest follows. Once more artist start putting out their music, things will change and he’ll shoot down to 40.
No other rapper hip act let alone another genre of music except Adele will do what Drake just did all these haterz keep it moving !
OK. He is BEHIND MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice. So two other rappers already have. Years ago. Without the internet…
