Drake’s ‘Scorpion’ First Week Album Sales Revealed

Drake’s Scorpion final first week album sales have officially been revealed by Billboard. Today, the publication announced that the project generated 745.9 million on-demand audio streams in the U.S. alone – setting a new all-time record for any artist in history.

The project debuts at no. 1 on the Billboard 200, moving 732,000 equivalent album sales, of winch 160,000 were in traditional album sales.

The effort marks the OVO Sound artist’s eight no. 1 album on Billboard, as well as tying Kanye West and Emimem for second-most credited no. 1 projects behind JAY-Z with 14.

Scorpion also went to earn the biggest streaming week ever for an album; breaking Post Malone’s beerbongs & bentleys project, which previously held the record 431.3 million.

However, the biggest news, was Drake becoming the first artist to generate one billion on-demand audio streams globally for a single week, as he shared the news last night on Instagram.

‘NBA Live 19’ Introduces New Dribble Crossover Combos

With EA Sports successfully rolling out NBA Live 18, the west coast team is readying their next basketball simulation title. Last week, EA presented LIVE 19 to the public, which featured drastic graphical overhauls for in-game fluidity. Luckily, gameplay is also getting several tune-ups this year, including a new dribbling system for deadly crossover. Through compiled media footage below, the game introduces a variety of double crossover and between the leg crossovers. However, those moves will be limited to just players like Kyrie Irving, Chris Paul, Jamal Crawford and maybe at times, Steph Curry for certain moves. Outside of those four, if you try with any other point-guard around the league, they’ll likely lose the rock and possibly even turn it over. Take a look at the clips below and let us know in the comments what you think.
