Drake continues to extend his chart dominance. His eighth studio album, For All The Dogs, has now officially spent 100 weeks on the Billboard 200, marking his tenth album to reach this milestone.
Released on October 6, 2023, through OVO Sound and Republic Records, For All The Dogs debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and held the top spot for two weeks. With this latest milestone, the project joins the ranks of Drake’s other long-running albums.

His longest-charting project remains his 2011 classic Take Care, which has logged 654 weeks on the Billboard 200 and continues to climb, ranking among the longest-charting albums of all time. Other standouts include Nothing Was the Same (506 weeks) and Views (487 weeks), both of which are among the most enduring rap albums in chart history.
For All The Dogs was one of Drake’s most ambitious records to date. Featuring an all-star lineup of collaborators—including SZA, J. Cole, Bad Bunny, 21 Savage, Chief Keef, and Sexyy Red—the album blended rap, R&B, and experimental sounds across a lengthy tracklist. Its production roster was equally stacked, with contributions from 40, Boi-1da, Tay Keith, Southside, Vinylz, the Alchemist, and even a posthumous credit from DJ Screw.
The album’s rollout was marked by delays, but anticipation was rewarded when it arrived in fall 2023 with five singles: “Slime You Out” featuring SZA, “8AM in Charlotte,” “Rich Baby Daddy,” “First Person Shooter” featuring J. Cole, and “You Broke My Heart.”
Upon its release, the record ended up on multiple year-end lists and became one of 2023’s top-selling rap albums. In its debut week, For All The Dogs earned 402,000 album-equivalent units in the U.S. and racked up more than 514 million on-demand global streams, marking the biggest streaming week of that year.
