Drake’s ‘Nothing Was The Same’ Still Top 5 On This Week’s Album Charts

It was a slow week for hip hop on the charts, although some recent releases are still performing well. Pusha T’s "My Name Is My Name" released to a top-5 finish last week but still managed to push another 20,000 units. Drake remains as the only hip hop artist (errr, maybe I should say “R&B artist") in the top 5 with "Nothing Was The Same."

Here’s how the week played out:

4. Drake – Nothing Was The Same (947,000 total)

14. Pusha T – My Name Is My Name (95,000 total)

41. Jay Z – Magna Carta Holy Grail (1,034,000 total)

48. 2 Chainz – B.O.A.T.S. II #MeTime (143,000 total)

51. Macklemore & Ryan Lewis – The Heist (1,112,000 total)

54. Kendrick Lamar – good kid, m.A.A.d. city (1,065,000 total)

57. Young Drop – High Times (6,000 debut)

Although it’s already received a large amount of negative criticism, DJ Khaled’s "Suffering From Success" is most likely the only record other than Drake’s that has a chance of landing in the Top 10.
