Drake has made Billboard history, becoming the first rapper to place ten albums on the Billboard 200 Albums chart in a single week.
The milestone follows a surge in streaming activity across his catalogue during the tracking period ending 8 January 2026.
A Decade-Spanning Catalogue
The Billboard 200 measures album performance using streaming data, digital sales, and track-equivalent units. Drake’s ten charting albums span more than a decade of releases.
Take Care leads the group at number 17, while Her Loss enters at number 200. Other charting titles include:
- Some $exy $ongs 4 U
- Views
- Certified Lover Boy
- For All The Dogs
- Thank Me Later
- Scorpion
- More Life
- Nothing Was the Same
The selection covers projects released between 2010 and 2023.
Momentum Ahead of Iceman
The spike in listening follows renewed promotion for Drake’s upcoming project, Iceman. He has previewed music during livestream sessions, releasing tracks gradually.
Songs already shared include “What Did I Miss?”, “Which One” featuring Central Cee, and “Dog House” with Yeat and Julia Wolf.
Speaking during a livestream, Drake said:
“I’m going on a last recording trip… There’s plenty to talk about. We’ll talk about it.”
He later added:
“Iceman coming soon.”
Several of Drake’s albums have maintained long chart runs, with Take Care spending over 600 weeks on the Billboard 200.
