The project debuted at number one on the US ''Billboard'' 200, with three-day sales of 495,000 copies and 40,000 for online streaming credits, making this Drake's fourth time at the top of the chart. He also topped his native Canadian Albums Chart, after moving 37,000 units upon the conclusion of the tracking week. . The album also broke Spotify's first-week streaming record with over 17.3 million streams in the first three days. The record was previously held by Drake himself, with his album ''Nothing Was the Same'' (2013), with 15.146 million streams in the first week. ==Background== In July 2014, Drake announced the title of his fourth studio album to be ''Views from the 6'', on which recording had reportedly not begun.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Drake Announces Fourth Album: "Views From The 6" )〕 In November 2014, in an interview, Toronto Raptors basketball player DeMar DeRozan mentioned Drake intending to release a mixtape in January 2015. On February 12, 2015, Drake released a short film titled ''Jungle'', which featured snippets of new songs such as "Know Yourself" and "Jungle". In an interview with HipHopDX, DatPiff founder Kyle Reilly revealed that Drake was initially in talks to release ''If You're Reading This It's Too Late'' as a free download on DatPiff hosted by DJ Drama, before Cash Money Records intervened. Due to its release via digital download outlets such as iTunes and Amazon Music as well as physically in vinyl and CD formats, contractually it is considered his fourth studio album for Cash Money Records. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「If You're Reading This It's Too Late」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
