DRAKE BECOMES FIRST ARTIST(NOT RAPPER) TO GO PLATINUM THIS YEAR

Drake on Monday became the first artist to release an album this year that has sold more than one million copies in the United States, ending the latest industry drought.

The Canadian rapper’s “If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late,” which he put out digitally without prior warning in February, has sold 1.007 million copies as of the week ending Friday, tracking service Nielsen Music said.

Only one other album has sold more than one million copies in the United States this year – pop superstar Taylor Swift’s “1989,” although it came out in 2014.

Well,I guess Meek Mill's got something to ponder on!
