Drake’s reign of dominance shows no signs of ending any time soon. The megastar recently scored his eleventh chart-topping album after his latest release, Honestly, Nevermind, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. The project’s blockbuster opening week also marks the latest milestone in the 6 God’s career, as he becomes the fifth artist in music history to have at least eleven of their albums reach No. 1. Drake joins a rare class that includes some of the most iconic and acclaimed acts of all-time.

With Honestly, Nevermind, Drake is currently tied with Bruce Springsteen and Barbra Streisand for the third-most No. 1 albums (11), trailing only Jay-Z (14), and The Beatles, who currently holds the record with 19 Billboard chart-topping albums of their own.

Honestly, Nevermind moved 204,000 equivalent album units in its first week, equating to one-third of the 613,000 units of sold Certified Lover Boy album. Honestly, Nevermind also accounted for the fourth-biggest streaming week of an album in 2022 with 250 million streams after falling short of Future’s I Never Liked You (284 million streams), Kendrick Lamar’s Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers (343 million streams), and Bad Bunny’s Un Verano Sin Ti (357 million streams).

Drake could potentially score his eleventh chart-topping song on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Jimmy Cooks”—his collaboration with 21 Savage—which is currently projected to debut at No. 1.
