Drake’s solo album is currently en route to destroy its sales chart competition.
Based on early reads, Scorpion by YMCMB/Republic’s Drake is on track for a record-breaking first week.
Drake (YMCMB/Republic) 870-920k total activity, 275-300k album.
The set, which surpassed 300m worldwide streams within its first 24 hours, has dominated the Spotify (#1-23 of the Top 25 U.S., 18 of the Top 25 Global), Apple Music (all of the Top 25) and iTunes (#1 album and three tracks in the Top 10) charts since its arrival. Spotify and Apple have both given Scorpion primo real estate, with The Spot according it the streamery’s first-ever site takeover. (HITS Daily Double)
