Months after its release, Drake‘s VIEWS is still racking up serious sales and smashing new Billboard 200 chart records. Billboard reveals that the Toronto emcee’s fourth studio album has just secured the No. 1 spot for the 11th nonconsecutive week, shifting another 89,000 equivalent units and fending off competitors like NeedToBreathe’s HardLove at No. 2, Twenty One Pilots’ Blurryface at No. 3, and Rihanna’s ANTI at No. 4. The last album to spend as long at the top of the Billboard 200 was Taylor Swift‘s monumentally successful 1989, and the most recent release to spend more than 11 weeks on top was the Frozen soundtrack, which dominated for 13 whole weeks.
