Drake ProfileIt reportedly sold more than 600,000 copies on iTunes in 24 hours and Drake's new LP Views is primed for another impressive feat, as it aims to take out the #1 spot on the ARIA Albums Chart this week from Beyonce with her critically acclaimed Lemonade.
The album is the Canadian hip hop star's fourth offering on the back of 2013's Nothing Was The Same which peaked at #2 in Australia, meaning the latest record would be his first-ever #1 in the country.
Drake has his work cut out for him however, as Beyonce's newest and surprise LP spoiled the Prince-dominated charts last week to snatch top spot, not to mention scoring a perfect five rating from us.
The only debuts set to make an impact in the top 20 are Rob Zombie's The Electric Warlock Acid With Satanic Orgy Celebration Dispenser, Sixx AM's Prayers For The Damned, Graeme Connors' 60 Summers, Luca Brasi's If This Is All We're Going To Be and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard with Nonagon Infinity (which also scored our pick for Album Of The Week last week).
Rounding out the rest of the pack includes Olympia's Self Talk, Richard Marx' The Ultimate Collection, Patrizio Buanne's Bravo Patrizio and Bette Midler's A Gift Of Love.
Over on the Singles Chart Calvin Harris will most likely score the week's highest debut and is set for a top three finish with This Is What You Came For featuring Rihanna, while fans can hear new tracks from Beyonce with Hold Up and 6 Inch featuring The Weeknd, Blink-182's Bored To Death, Ghost Town DJ's with My Boo and Anne-Marie's Do It Right.
