Drake’s “VIEWS” Certified Double Platinum

    After it sat at the top of Billboard’s Top 200 albums chart for the sixth week in a row, the RIAA says that Drake’s VIEWS is certified double platinum.

    The album has now sold more than two million units. It sold its first million in the span of a week after its April release.

    To date, the single “Hotline Bling” is five times platinum. Another cut from VIEWS, “One Dance,” was Drizzy’s first to top the Hot 100 Chart. He is in the company of Eminem and 50 Cent for his chart achievements with the project.

    The RIAA changed its rules in February to include streams in its certification process.

    1. Before i even clicked on this, a voice inside my head was tellin me Victoria aka the biggest Aubrey groupie wrote this, and boy was that voice speakin the truth! He should celebrate by slappin Victoria Hernandez ass twice!

    2. Haha all you fuck boyz can never say another word King Drake 2milli in 6 or so weeks stop it everyone saying nobody selling albums go get fuct ! Drake is King he makes classic music and nobody is on his level period! Views Classic all Summer Sixteen.

      1. Drake isn’t selling albums. His album is being streamed on pay sites/apps. Other than women and gays who like that shit, only reason people streaming that record is to confirm how terrible it is.

    3. FUCK FAKE DRAKE! Bitch made pop princess puppet. He’s a manufactured pop singer who reads & recites reference tracks written by others, steals & bites lyrics & material written by authentic hip hop artists. Ducks & dodges battles from real MC’S who would destroy his fake pop singing Carreras. #DRAKEISFAKEDRAKEISWACK #THE 6FRAUD WITH VIEWS FROM A BITCH

      1. the guy that dumps on dj vlad because he got his ears stomped together courtesy of rick ross says:

      3. Right. He went up against Meek with SOMEONE ELSE WRITING HIS RHYMES. LOL. Please. Let’s see him take a shot at Eminem or Kendrick. LOL

    4. Stay mad haters. Stay mad while drake stays dominating the rap game. Numbers dont lie. None of these other rappers can dream of doing drake numbers in 2016. Without drake hiphop music would be dead. Look at the sales of all these other rappers. They can’t even go gold. Eminem, Jay Z and Lil wayne are washed up. Kendrick’s album sales are on a decline. The rest of these rappers are irrelevent.

      1. Blah, blah, blah. You’re not saying anything any other delusional Drake stan isn’t saying. Put it to rest.

      2. Blah, blah, blah. You’re not saying anything any other delusional Drake stan isn’t saying. Put it to rest.

      3. Eminemis washed up? C’mon son either you retarded or you taking some phucked up drugs. GTFOH with yo bulls**t.

      4. Couldn’t be more on point. Em has twice the money and has sold 5X the albums as this punk. Somehow he is blacker and more street, if that makes any sense. LOL

    5. Let’s get it!!! Drake stay winning this is great for the hip hop community #Views #2xPlat #OVOSound

      1. Right. Great for Hip-Hop. A guy who talks white then uses the Nword and talks hard on records (again, fim Canada, no guns or real gangs), that DOESN’T WRITE HIS OWN RHYMES, is good for the Hip-Hop community? Maybe good for th LGBT community and Dance Revolution… Not Hip-Hop. Made in a lab.

    6. Hey Victoria you twitter journalist. He did NOT SELL 2 million copies, STREAMS are counted as sales, so you need to do your research instead of the viewers doing the research for you. I wonder if you even graduated High School. Streams and these twitter trolls(victoria) are killing Hip Hop

    7. Hell yeah! Views is double platinum, beeeeyotches! Can’t stop Drizzaveli ever unless you kill him. And even then, people will still hail him as a legend for years to come just like Pac. #DrakeIsLoveDrakeIsLife

      1. t his own rhymes. Soon Drake will do something stupid and fall off, like let someone record how he really talks to his mom for example. He is not a real MC. Again, he doesn’t even write his rhymes. Webster would be where he is had he convinced Lil Wayne he was worth investing in. Drake talks white whenever no one is around. When he uses the Nword he looks over both of his shoulders to make sure a REAL one isn’t around. BTW this dude is from Canada, he talks white and runs around with security everywhere while talking about “run up on me and we goan see”. LOL. Lots of famous street gangs in Canada that people around the world copy and are scared of (sarcasm). LOL. Hilarious. I can picture Drake running up sounding like Steve Martin. You talking aboot me? With his flip-top South Park Canadian head. Oreo Cookie. Well, more like a mocha Oreo, off white on the outside, white on the inside. LOL. With his crew of Arab named white guys. He is always talking like he is from the streets. They don’t even have GUNS in Canada. LOLOLOL. Hilarious.

    9. Kracker lips Drake y’all. Whiter than Bryan Gumball. Repping Canada. Land of maple syrup. They have fake country stars (remove the O in country for that one), they should also have fake rappers. He doesn’t write the rhyme or do the beats. Basically he is Kermit the frog? LOL

    10. DEAR RIAA STREAMING SHOULD NOT COUNT AS ALBUM SALES BECAUSE A ARTIST AND THEIR PEOPLE CAN JUST STREAM THEIR OWN ALBUM AND IM NOT TALKING ABOUT FANS WHEN I SAY THEIR PEOPLE BUT ANYWAY THEY CAN STREAM THEIR OWN ALBUM OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN AS MANY TIMES AS THEY WANT

    11. Just like somebody said below, the same way the Record Labels got caught using bots to increase Music Video VIEWS(Google it, Record Companies got fined heavy for that), the same way they can use those bots to STREAM their songs all day long. You are all sleepwalking zombies

      1. Hmmm. Eminem. Kanye. Jay Z. Niki Minaj. Dr. Dre and Wayne have all out sold him in albums/Streams and have made more money. Your idea of everyone is a bit off. Dummy. Learn how to read/count.

    12. Im a Nigerian who didnt like Drake at first but realised I was bullshiting myself n I prefer d Drake that raps coz he is really awesome, one of the greats although his singing is ok n gives him a lil advantage.

      1. Wow. You should be more offended than anyone that this Whiteboy is dropping Nbombs and pretending to be gangster when he isn’t. But really you aren’t Nigerian are you? LOL.

    13. Hahaha thanks for the laugh haters No ghostwriter will know your life story unless he is you.
      Nxt hatin point plz

      1. that he doesn’t write his rhymes. The writer is credited on his songs. Miller is his last name. Fu

      2. that he doesn’t write his rhymes. The writer is credited on his songs. Miller is his last name. Fu

      3. He has admitted personally that he doesn’t write his rhymes. There have been interviews with several REAL MCs debating on if you actually have won a battle or not if someone wrote for you. Mr. Miller is credited on ALL of his songs. Stop being a sheep dummy.

    14. lmao i love how DX is such Drake haters that at the bottom they said “the RIAA changed its rules in Feb to include streams in it’s certification process.” Drake still the most consistent rapper out right now

      1. Are you kidding? Victoria is DX’s biggest Drake groupie there is. Damn near every Drake article is written by her, and whenever she writes articles about other artists, she’ll always sneak something about Drake in there. She’s far from a Drake hater.

      2. False bro..Miller raps and is no where near Drake..the man is a success..you sound real jealous aha..what have u done with your life?

      3. Dylan? LOL. Check out the Drake interview where he speaks about using ghost writers. Also check out Ice Cube defending Drake’s right to do so. Even Mos Def weighs in. I guess Dylan knows a bit more than Drake himself and rea MC’s. I own my own business, cars and have a college degree. No one wrote anything for me my whole life. Herb.

      4. Check the publishing on Frake’s Back 2 Back. It clearly says “Miller”. Tool. And BTW, Miller is a famous mainstream rapper? LOL. Those skinny jeans must be cutting off your circulation. Herb.

      5. Nope. The person that writes his rhymes, Mr. Miller would be the consistent rapper you are talking about. Sheep.

      1. Wow. Meek Mill should have consulted with you. You ethered Drake and his Jimmy jockeys with that right there. That Oreo Ishtar was hilarious.

      2. Wow. Meek Mill should have consulted with you. You ethered Drake and his Jimmy jockeys with that right there. That Oreo Ishtar was hilarious.

    16. Hilarious. Drake not writing his own rhymes is a fact. All of his followers on here haven’t dared to address the fact that he talks white when he isn’t rapping, then ha the nerve to use the Nword. What about him talking gangster talk “we can meet up any time any place”? Come on! Dude is WAY phony. Just need Miller to write for Bieber, with those Diplo beats we will have a better, blacker Drake. LOL

      1. Right, “fam”, why does his voice and cadence change from one situation to the next? Nice try. He sounds like Mr. Smithers from the Simpsons. A dorky kracker. When he gets on the Mic he tries to sound like he is Sam J in Pulp Fiction and drops Nbombs left and right “fam”. If you don’t think White people and black people use different cadences and slang you live in Canada. LOL. Ether!!

    17. Who cares if that wack ass Drake album went double platinum. Wack shit ain’t gettin any of my money, so fuck ya!
