Canadian rapper Drake has released eight studio albums, one collaborative album, three compilation albums, four extended plays, seven mixtapes, and one reissue. His music has been released on record labels Universal Motown Records and Republic Records, along with subsidiaries Young Money Entertainment, Cash Money Records and OVO Sound. With 170 million records sold worldwide,[1] he is among the best-selling music artists in history. Drake has achieved thirteen number-one albums on the Billboard 200.[2] Billboard (Drake and Billboard are both apart of UMG) hailed him as the "Artist of the 2010s Decade"[3] and the 16th Greatest Artist of all time.[2] RIAA ranks him as the best top-selling digital artist of all time with 244 million in the United States.[4]

Following him signing to Young Money Entertainment imprint, Drake's mixtape, So Far Gone was repackaged as a 2009 release of his seven-song extended play. The EP peaked at number 6 on the US Billboard 200, and later became certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[5][6] In June 2010, Drake released his debut studio album, Thank Me Later. It debuted atop both the Billboard 200 and the Canadian Albums Chart,[5][7] and later became certified platinum by both the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and Canadian Recording Industry Association (CRIA).[6][8]

In November 2011, Drake released his second studio album, Take Care, which debuted at number one in both the United States and Canada, becoming his second album to achieve this feat. In September 2013, Drake released his third studio album, Nothing Was the Same, becoming his third consecutive number-one album in Canada and the US.[5][7]

In 2015, Drake released two mixtapes, If You're Reading This It's Too Late which became available for purchase in February and a surprise joint mixtape with Future, What a Time to Be Alive, which was released in September.[9] Drake's fourth studio album Views was released in April 2016, once again debuting at number one in both the United States and Canada, while also debuting at number one in the United Kingdom, where it became his first number one album. The album achieved huge commercial success, becoming the most popular release of 2016 in the US.[10]

Drake's fifth studio album, Scorpion, was released in June 2018 and again debuted at number one in Canada and in the US. The album was certified platinum on the day it was released[11] and became the first album to be streamed over one billion times in its release week.[12] It sold 732,000 album-equivalent units, which included 160,000 pure album sales, making it the biggest first week of the year. In August 2019, Drake released a compilation album titled Care Package. He released his seventh mixtape Dark Lane Demo Tapes, in May 2020. In March 2021, he released the extended play Scary Hours 2. In September 2021, Drake released his sixth studio album, Certified Lover Boy. In June 2022, Drake released his seventh studio album, Honestly, Nevermind.
