Remember Views? Drake’s album release from way back on April 29? Back before Gucci Mane was a free man, and when the Toronto Raptors were facing the Indiana Pacers in the first round of the NBA Playoffs? That’s a full 66 days ago.
And now, for the ninth week in a row, Views sits perched atop the Billboard 200 album chart, according to the chartmaker.
That means it passes Eminem’s The Marshall Mathers LP to become the third-place Hip Hop album with the most weeks at the top of the chart. It’s still behind Vanilla Ice’s To The Extreme —which spent 16 weeks at #1 in 1990 and 1991 — and MC Hammer’s Please Hammer Don’t Hurt ‘Em — which held the top spot for 21 weeks in 1990.
The last man to hold the #1 album position for nine straight weeks was Billy Ray Cyrus in 1992, with his album Some Gave All, which featured the hit “Achy Breaky Heart.” That was the same year Billy Ray’s daughter Miley Cyrus was born.
Despite a 10 percent drop from last week, Drake’s numbers more than doubled his closest competition, with his 110,788 total album equivalent units (a statistic that tallies streams, album sales and single sales) towering over Beyoncé’s 47,598 total for the #2 Lemonade. The album’s success is in large part due to its continued dominance on streaming platforms, where it pulled in just under 100 million on-demand plays for the week ending June 30.

Drake, Vanilla Ice, MC Hammer… anyone else recognize the similarities? lmao
Oh so Eminem was fake too since he used to be in 3rd? Lmao you haters will say anything
vanilla ice really has one hit “ice ice baby” and one album that did well. MC Hammer also really has just one hit “U cant touch this” and one album that did well. They were both widely considered one-hit wonders. Drake has “The Motto”, “Im On One”, “Started from The Bottom”, “Headlines”, “One Dance”, “Hotline Bling”, “Trophies”, “Know Yourself”, “Jumpman”, “F*ckin Problems” and every other song dominating the clubs / bars / baseball stadiums. Plus he got key guest appearances on classic albums like Kendrick Lamar’s GKMC, Rick Ross “Rich Forever” and YG’s My Krazy Life. MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice are not even comparable regardless of how much you might hate Drake. Drake owns the industry right now. Those guys had big hit songs but 1 year later, no one wanted to admit listening to it

MC Hammer was not like you stated a one hit wonder and just had one album that did well. In facts he got 4 multi platinium albums and more than 10 songs that charted the bilboard top 100.
Sas, you should be recovering on your hospital bed, not typing an essay about Drake. Take it easy.

He doesn’t write his own rhymes. He lip syncs over his own shit on stage. Please kill yourself queer.
“Plus he got key guest appearances on classic albums like Kendrick Lamar’s GKMC, Rick Ross “Rich Forever” and YG’s My Krazy Life.” Only the first album you mentioned was a classic while the last two aren’t, plus, none of Aubrey’s appearances are key,e specially when one of them was him stealing a verse from 4-Tay’s Players’ Club.

Eminem writes his own rhymes. Fuckboy. Drake doesn’t. Queer.
Oh the irony
6 upside down its a 9 now. enough said
Yes dummy. You are stupid enough to like fake ass robot pop tart Milli Vanilli, I am shocked you figured out that a 6 upside down is a 9. Drake still sucks, doesn’t write his rhymes and lip syncs over his terrible vocals on stage. Queer.
6 upside down its a 9 now. enough said
Because of new rules else hed be nowhere its no hip hop album neither its r&b anybody disagree cant handle the truth. Hes singing and making nice music but not best rapper that never
Yo dawg.. Drizzy wanna get in touch wit you so he can send you a medal of valor for holdin him down on HHDX
You American haters have to celebrate your 4th of July with a Canadian having the #1 album for 9 weeks in a row. LMAO! OVO run things, boi! #DrakeIsLoveDrakeIsLife
Canadian Haters too ovoqueer, I helped fake drake celebrate Canada day by continually sending him links too joe budden destroying him lyrically on making of a murderer pt. 1. fake drake is in good company with 2 of the fakest bitch made pop acts pretending to be hip hop in history. the 2 fakest white boys in music history fake drake and vanilla ice…they both have something in common, they both had to have ghostwriters write all their songs, vanilla ice had Mario Johnston aka chocolate, fake drake has Quintin miller among the hundred other ghostwriters locked down in the ovo sweatshop. #DRAKEISFAKEDRAKEISWACK #THE 6FRAUD WITH VIEWS FROM A BITCH
Real talk
Beyonce sold more physical albums than him this week, yet he is still #1 ? This new rule is screwed up
She only sold 7,000 more, stop acting like she sold 700,000 more. He has 100 million streams while she has 4 million, meaning a hella lot more million people are listening to his album. This is 2016, not 1996 going to the store and buying a CD isn’t the only way to listen to music and isn’t the only way of determining popularity.

Aubrey, going where only the whitest of white rappers have gone before.
for a person without a dick that is amazing
I’ll suck Drakes DICK I bet it’s 6 inches
What if I suck your sick?
What if I suck your sick?
we value the entusiasm but sorry he has no dick
Pop Artist… Yes; he joined them alright! Drak join a bunch of Pop Artists. They are not hip hop! Drake is nothing but a pop artist!!! I am not mad at him, though! Get that money…
I lost my anal virginity to Drake’s hotline bling. More like hotline O-ring. I shave my testies like his Caesar haircut. My boyfriend loves it. Us dudes from Toronto bang each other and think of Drake’s sexy music. He is the new Village People/Milli Vanilli. The prostate is the new clitoris. Thanks Drake. I have come to understand my body. Go Raptors.
I wear turtlenecks so my throat doesn’t get cold while I suck all of these other guys dicks up here in Canada. I learned this trick from my hero, Drake. Rhianna loves him because he can take the big strap ons. He started from the bottom. Then he likes it back 2 back. Just like I do. I wish these battle MCs would come up here and see what the real battle is. Our sick sucking battles. By the way, OVO fest is coming up, the biggest gay orgy since Roman times. I can’t wait to get glazed like a donut. Just like Drake instructs us to do with his (really written and put together by other people, he just lip syncs over it) music. Go Raptors! Rainbow power!!
Look. I am here to set the record straight. I don’t write my rhymes. I am too big of a pussy to handle my own beef. I lip sync over my own music “live” on stage because I can’t sing or rap. I talk like a corny Canadian white guy except for when I am being interviewed, “rapping” or “performing.” There you have it. Those are the reasons I am up here on this exclusive lost with other legends at lip syncing and being fraudulent. I have to get back to a turtle neck dick sucking battle. No time to have my ghost writers handle a rap battle for me. Mmmmmmmm
Dudes are just MURDERING Drake constantly in the comment section on HHDX. There is the one Canadian editor or writer for the site that keeps egging these idiots on. It’s quite funny actually. I don’t like Drake either. I didn’t know that he lip synced or didn’t write his rhymes until I saw these comment sections. I looked it up and it’s actually true. I gave up on Drake after that. This shit is funny though.
J E W S from the sticks…
Bottom line Drake runs the game the industry his music is timeless and will dominant every artist and top the charts with ease! These haterz never can give credit to the top dawg !
Yup. Timeless. Just like the other two fake MF on the list my 12 year old friend. LOL
Aren’t you the gay guy always talking about sucking dicks and turtlenecks and shit? You are kind of gross buddy…
Rap is all about the loot and you racist scumbags can’t change that.
It’s all about making your own music and being a MC. Pop is all about the loot, dummy. Go post on Billboard. This is a Hip-Hop site. So according to your post, Hammer and Vanilla are more “Rap” than Eminem or Kendrick Lamar? Idiot.
How is it racist to call the guy a J E W? He is J E W I S H. And he’s from the sticks. Canada. J E W S From The Sticks
Vanilla Ice, Drake, MC Hammer oh ok it makes sense now lol
I live my life the Drake way
We can tell. You are fake as fuck and write all this gay shit about giving head in turtlenecks all day…
We can tell. You are fake as fuck and write all this gay shit about giving head in turtlenecks all day…
Yeah that’s exactly who he fits in with. The two other products sold as hip hop by corporations. Drake the Vanilla Ice of this generation
its got to be gay ass dudes, teenage girls, buying that bullshit. aint no real hip hop heads buying that garbage…dude got ghost writers and shit and the album is still trash.
Drake sucks he don’t write his own rhymes…he’s not mc arm & hammer or vanilla ice cream, he’s like Obama a Bounty! Black outside and white inside lol and his music is ok pop artist,he don’t run rap you basterds no fucking way, that fat kid was sayin “drake is banging” maybe banging Rihanna but no way drake is hard GANGSTA rapper no fucking way you fat basterd…. Go back to your church fatty and don’t talk hip hop here you Stunada. That album Views from the bitch was not a good album so yes joins vanilla hammer one hit WONDERs drake album sucks hes on top? kids today got no taste in music and lyrics , at least Eminem music were funny and new vibe plus Dr Dre showedhim how to beats! If you play Eminem beats are hardcore sound from 2001 till around 2008 he had sound wit D12 , drake is ok not the best but he is Popping in pop music…. but Hip hop R&B he’s flow is medium he sounds and styles like lil wayne at the beginning and so did everyone just like Method Man in 90’s every nyc rapper or new comers they all flow like Method Man, then they try Nas 2pac Jayz Eminem 50 lil wayne flows this is nothing new when trying to copy cat people for cash look at this Dumpass kid Desiigner or lil wayne copying Future and future got his flow from 2 Chainz most definitely but not copying he taken 2 Chainz style …. Chainz says a different ending in his rhymes where Future he use his vocals and bending his words.learn how to hear music you son’s of bitchass lol fucking u got no taste like dj Khalid most fake dj ever hes like drake he dont make own music

Funny i always compared Drake to Vanilla Ice (except that Vanilla actually got called out). This is a bad day for hip hop!!
Very nice! Look forward to hear more.
We aren’t looking forward to hearing more from YOU! This is an official Dtake hater website, queer. Take your pop fan bullshit to Teen Choice’s site or something. Homo
At lease Mc hammer and Vanilla ice got some seriouse dance moves, drake only has those retarded convulsions with no rythm
Sucking another man’s penis isn’t quite the same without “one dance” playing in the back round. I love a nice hot load down my throat while listening to Drake. All of us Toronto boys wear turtle necks so our throats don’t get cold when there is a dikk sucking contest. Rainbow power! Go Raptors! Maple syrup makes the best man on man lube when going “back to back”. Eh?
What was confusing about what I said, big boy? I love sucking big black dicks while listening to Drake. Or fake black guy dicks. More appropriate. But I am totally serious about the dick sucking and being a Drake fan… Really serious. I have my turtle neck on now. I call it a semen bib, for when I can’t swallow an entire giant Canadian load.

Wow. He is finally with the people he deserves to be with and will be remembered as. These fraudulent Wack MF. I think Hammer at least wrote his own lyrics.
That’s good news

Fukk you, fake Christian hoe. No one wants to hear your fantasy dummy brainwashed child molesting Christian bullshit. Go to a Cheistian site for that. There are people stupid enough to like Drake on here, so I guess some of them would believe in zombie Jesus walking on water and other fairy tales. GTFOH

Canada should be embarrassed of this loser. Some straight Milli Vanilli/Vanilla Ice shit. Dude doesn’t write his rhymes, he doesn’t handle his own beef, he even lip syncs over his own vocals at shows because he can’t sing or rap. Be proud of your Pop Tart android homo!
Drake’s success will continue to feed these haters. Keep at it bitches, Drake is running the game right now!
His success at reading other people’s lyrics, lip syncing over his own music “live” because he can’t perform his fraudulent bullshit. His success at having others handle his beef for him. You should be ashamed of posting on a Hip-Hop site. Teen Choice is more up to your speed. Pop tart queer

The only reason its so far up on the list is because they started counted STREAMS as SALES, single mp3’s are also counted as sales. Its so easy to create bots that stream the same album throughout the whole day, every day. Just like you can buy twitter followers, you can buy stream hits and it automatically counts as SALES. The whole system is fraudulent. But the little kids will believe everything
They call them click farms. It’s one of the biggest products out of Bangladesh. Drake and his robots have to be careful. Using click farms to manipulate sales on records involving deals where the more you “sell” the more you make could be fraud. I would like to see Drake in jail doing his best redemption of back to back and started from the bottom.
Anyone want some real head from a Canadian Drake fan? I can suck it better than any woman. Put on some Drake or The Weekend and I can suck a basketball they a straw. I specialize in fake black guys from Canada who talk black around black people, but I really sound like Smithers from the Simpsons. I gargle semen all day. Come get some. Make a donation.
