#BBB NEWS| WATCH: Drake Shows Off His Awkward Dance Moves In Hilarious New Apple Music Commercial [PHOTOS/VIDEO]

However you may feel about Drake, one cannot deny the Views artist is multitalented. Whether its his singing, rapping or acting, Aubrey Graham can do it all, including make others laugh by making a fool of himself.

During Sunday night’s (Nov. 21) American Music Awards, where Drake was nominated for 13 awards, Drizzy also appeared in his first Apple Music commercial. In the clip, Drake is in the gym bench pressing. His friend, an equally swol dude then walks off camera and Drake is by himself to play whatever music he wants and obviously, he picks Taylor Swift’s “Bad Blood.” Swift starred in an Apple Music commercial many moons ago  in which she was seen running on a treadmill singing along to Drake and Future’s “Jumpman” before falling flat on her face.

Drake’s Views remains atop the Billboard charts as the number one album for an 11th time. After nine consecutive weeks on top, Views was shortly dethroned by Blink 182’s California earlier in July, but is now back in the number one spot for the last two weeks.

Views sold 89,000 album units for the week ending July 21st, even though 64% of the sales are from streaming. Sales dropped three percent from last week according to Billboard.

In the last 20 years, Views is only one of eight albums to attain the number one spot for at least 11 weeks.

#BBB NEWS| Drake Makes First Time Appearance On Forbes Five Wealthiest Hip-Hop Artists

Aubrey’s 2016 is shaping up to be quite a successful year. After the release of his highly-anticipated LP Views, the 29 year old achieved another milestone by making a first-time appearance on Forbes’ five wealthiest hip-hop artist list.

Released Wednesday, (May 4) the list, which is comprised of the usual suspects Sean P.Diddy Combs, Dr. Dre, Jay Z Birdman and 50 Cent, welcomed Drake after 50 Cent’s legal woes last year caused him to file for bankruptcy, resulting him being booted off the list.

While the “One Dance” artist who’s $60 million fortune is a far cry from Diddy’s $750 million fortune, Drake has proven his business acumen is indeed lit, securing partnerships with Nike, Sprite, Apple Music as well as his sold-out tours.
