DrakeAfter dominating streaming services since its release on Friday, Drake's new album, Scorpion, is set to blitz both the ARIA Albums and Singles charts this week.
The Canadian rapper's fifth studio album is the favourite to debut at #1 on the Albums list, which would see the 31-year-old score his second-straight Australian top charting studio album on the back of 2016's Views.
So popular has Drake's LP been, it is likely to hold out fellow heavyweights — Florence & The Machine's High As Hope and Gorillaz' The Now Now — which are both predicted to debut in the top three.

Drake's command on the ARIA charts is even more prominent on the Singles chart, with at least 13 songs featured on Scorpion expected to land in the top 50.
God's Plan and Nice For What (which enjoyed an 11-week and two-week reign at #1 respectively earlier this year), are both predicted to move back into the top ten, while I'm Upset should climb back into the top 20.
Scorpion tracks debuting on the Singles chart this week include Nonstop, Don't Matter To Me (both top ten), Emotionless, In My Feelings (both top 20), 8 Out Of 10, Mob Ties, Talk Up, Can't Take A Joke (all top 30), Summer Games and Peak (both top 50).
Sydney's own Dean Lewis is expected to also crack the top 50 with his new hit, Be Alright.
