hahaha…LOL
TOP THAT BIG SEAN…..#DRIZZY-a turning point in hip hop..
You mean to say a turning point in R&B?
This proves that a lot of females/young kids buy more albums than anyone else. Still, Quality>Quantity. MC Hammer, Vanilla Ice, Nelly, and Ja Rule sold a lot of albums, too.
Wait. Drake is hip-hop? Last time I heard, he was an R&B/pop singer.
Well he raps better than you…
Typical stan response. His rapping skills are weak; even I fan out-rap him and I don’t even rap.
man, fuck this jewish-looking nigga. he ain’t shit
Drake is gonna do a album with Flo Rida next,Watch.
o well im downloading his next shit anyway
SECOND BEST RAPPER TO WEEZY F,
PUSHA T- NO GIRLFRIEND,NO HOME, SMALL ASS HOUSE, HIS FAMILY HATE HIM, HES KANYE WEST SIDEKICK, WORST RAPPER ON GOOD MUSIC, DOES NOT HAVE MONEY LIKE DRAKE, DRAKE IS I SEXIER THAN HIM, MALICE IS BETTER THAN PUSHA, HE OPENED FO FUTURE
I WOUL LICK THE BOTTOM OF DRAKES FOOT FOR FREE
lol definition of a true dick rider lol youll suck his dick for free to right
@Anonymous
You’re the definition of a hater. DK is right on all counts about Puhsa T. You wouldn’t give a flying fuck about Pusha T if you didn’t hate YMCMB so much. Pusha is a fucking lame and a total tool. If you’re a fan of his, then you’re lame too. How can you even dispute the facts?
Good joke, dickrider.

#Ey3 LUV 2012…..
What? No Pusha T on this list?
Lol all of Drake’s haters don’t sell as much as him combined. Common, Pusha T and Chris Brown are not at his level. Drake is one of the biggest names in the game right now. He’s an international superstar. His stature and fame grow bigger by the day. His ascent is unstoppable. A punch of these old as rappers tried to throw spitballs at a tank. Guess what punks, it’s not gonna work. Drake make hits and all of these other dudes flop.
And Drake hated on Luda and Luda albums first two albums sold more than Drake whats your point, lol
Good joke.
@Dentaldamboy
How does Drake’s dick taste?
one of the biggest TROLLs on HHDX
actually Nicki Minaj’s Roman Reloaded was one slot above Drake…Rounding out the top 10: Carrie Underwood, Blown Away (602,000), Luke Bryan, Tailgates & Tanlines (575,000), Nicki Minaj, Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded (557,000), Drake, Take Care (549,000) and Adele’s debut, 19 (539,000). Other notable albums in the top 20 include: Justin Bieber, Believe (#12, 490,000), Madonna’s MDNA (#13, 484,000), Black Keys, El Camino (#16, 424,000) and Rihanna’s Talk That Talk (#17, 424,000).
what made you guys ignore Nicki Minaj when she was higher than Drake..smh..

I just can’t belive how many people bought this garbage.
Too bad for you, that this was a great and honest album. Sit your ole hating butt down, clown.
