Last week, DJ Khaled sent the music world into a frenzy with the release of his highly anticipated album, Major Key. In news that will have Khaled and his fans reeling, the star-studded LP is currently on track to become the rapper’s first ever No. 1 album on the Billboard Hot 200. Billboard are predicting that Major Key will move 90,000 equivalent album units in the week ending August 4, which will be just enough to steal the top spot from Drake‘s record-breaking VIEWS. Khaled is also on track to sell 60,000 traditional copies of the album, which would propel him into his best-selling week since 2007’s We tha Best. It looks like Khaled may be the one with the key to knocking Drake off the Billboard Hot 200 throne.
