OVO Sound leader Drake is experiencing a tough weekend after being dissed by Hot 97’s Funkmaster Flex by now having his Views album fall from atop the sales chart.

According to reports, longtime Drizzy pal DJ Khaled‘s Major Key album has dethroned Views from being the country’s number one selling release this week.

After 12 non-consecutive weeks at #1, Drake’s Views (YMCMB/Republic) has been dethroned by DJ Khaled’s Major Key (We The Best/Epic). Khaled lands at #1 on HITS’ Sales Plus Streaming (SPS) Chart with 96k, while Drake slides gracefully to #2 with nearly 80k. Khaled also stands as the top dog on the Album Sales Chart, as Major Key scores about 60k in album sales alone after a week-long Apple Music exclusivity period. (HITS Daily Double)

A few days ago, Khaled penned an emotional thank-you letter to fans for supporting his new release.

Based on early estimates, Khaled’s latest compilation album was expected to sell at least 45,000 copies in its opening week and possibly knock Views from the top spot.
