Take Care marks Drake's second consecutive No. 1 selling album following his debut, Thank Me Later, which sold 447,000 it's first week out.
Prior to knowing what Drake's final numbers would be his Young Money boss Lil Wayne spoke to MTV about getting a point across with the disc.
"We expect to work very hard. We expect people to respect our hard work," Weezy said. "Pardon me for sounding however I sound with this statement, but we rich as sh*t. So, numbers and record sales that doesn't matter to none of us. We just wanna get a perfect point across. If we get that done with the album... mission accomplished."
