Drake released his Scary Hours 2 mixtape last Friday and it on track to make history by being the first artist ever to debut at #1 and #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. “What’s Next” is on track to debut at #1 while the Lil Baby featured “Wants and Needs” is on track to debut at #2.

Like him or love him, Drake makes hits. We’ll have to wait and see if he does take the top two spots, and where the Rick Ross featured “Lemon Pepper Freestyle” lands on the chart.
