Scorpion could surpass 700 million streams in the U.S. by the end of the tracking week on July 5, according to industry forecasters.

The album is set to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart with an estimated 700,000 in equivalent album units, marking the biggest week for an album in 2018 and the largest first week since Taylor Swift’s Reputation in November (1.2 million).

Scorpion is also on track to become Drake’s eighth consecutive No. 1. All seven of his previous full-length albums have debuted at No. 1.
