Drake dropped off his eagerly-anticipated new project For All The Dogs last week, and so far, it's been mostly a success. Various tracks from the album are topping U.S. charts, particularly his collabs with Yeat and J. Cole. Reportedly, the Canadian hitmaker is also dominating charts overseas, with For All The Dogs hitting No. 1 in the UK this week.
Recently, it was also reported that the album debuted at No. 1 Down Under. This now makes for his fifth album to reach No. 1 in Australia. His other albums to come out on top on Australian charts include Views, Scorpion, Dark Lane Demo Tapes, and of course, Certified Lover Boy.
Drake's New Album Debuts At No. 1 In Australia
Though it's clear that the album's already proving to be a commercial success, not all of it's reviews have been positive. Some feel as though the project was a bit of a let down after months of teasing, and expected something more groundbreaking. Joe Budden, for example, shared that he thinks that album could have been more mature. Drake didn't take too kindly to the feedback, firing back with a lengthy rant on Instagram.
According to Drake, Budden was being "malicious" with his less-than-satisfied review. Metacritic reviews, however, prove that many listeners agree with him. Regardless, For All The Dogs is expected to sell 400-450k album-equivalent units in its first week. It also had the second biggest opening day on Spotify of all hip hop releases this year, with 108.7 million streams. It came in just behind Travis Scott's Utopia, which garnered 128.5 million.
