Drake is back on top of the charts.
$ome $exy $ongs 4 U, the rapper’s collaborative album with fellow Canadian PartyNext Door, has debuted atop Billboard’s 200 albums chart, the publication confirmed on Sunday, marking Drake’s 14th Number One album.
The record opened with 287.04 million first-week streams, along with 25,000 album sales, according to Luminate.
The album replaced Kendrick Lamar‘s GNX for the Number One slot, perhaps a bit of a consolation prize as GNX skyrocketed last week after Lamar’s lauded Super Bowl halftime show earlier this month.
$ome $exy $ongs 4 U marks Drake’s first Number One album since he and Lamar’s rap beef infamously escalated last year.
Lamar’s “Not Like Us” became the runaway hit from a series of barbs the two rappers threw at one another. The song went on to win five Grammys, including for Record and Song of the Year, and it topped the Hot 100 for three weeks.
