Drake’s winning streak continues.
The third album from the new global ambassador for the Toronto Raptors’, Nothing Was The Same, has debuted at number one (selling 658,000 copies) on the Billboard 200 charts.
This is the the third straight number one album for the Canadian and will be the second largest sales week in 2013 following Justin Timberlake’s 20/20 Experience debut.
This is an impressive considering the amount of quality rap albums released in 2013. Some hip-hop heads and insiders believe 2013 to be second coming or new ‘Golden Age’ in rap.
Drake’s ‘Nothing Was The Same’ leaks and doesn’t disappoint
“It just wasn’t real to me. I saw him after that and it was just like love, so it’s like was that real or was that for the people? Those were harsh words, you can’t just say that and see me like, ‘Yeah, man, what’s up,’ pretending like nothing ever happened. That’s not real,” Drake said about Kendrick Lamar and competition in hip-hop.
