About Views

Views is the fourth studio album by Canadian rapper Drake. It was released on April 29, 2016, by Cash Money Records, Republic Records, and Young Money Entertainment. Recording sessions took place from 2015 to 2016, with both Drake and his longtime collaborator and record producer 40 serving as the record's executive producers. 40 also primarily handled the production on the album alongside each of these several other record producers such as Nineteen85, Maneesh Bidaye, Kanye West, and Jordan Ullman, among others. The album contains the elements of genres such as R&B, dancehall, hip hop, and pop, among others. Views was supported by five singles: "Hotline Bling", "One Dance", "Pop Style", "Controlla", and "Too Good". The album received lukewarm reviews from critics, many of whom found it to be an overlong retread of Drake's previous work. Despite this, it spent 13 non-consecutive weeks at number one on the US Billboard 200. It was certified quadruple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The album was nominated for Album of the Year and Best Rap Album at the 2017 Grammy Awards. As of April 2018, Views sold 1.73 million copies and a total of 5.41 million album-equivalent units in the United States more »
