Drake's recently released album, Nothing Was the Same, is already a success. The rapper's album went to Number 1 on the weekly Billboard 200 album chart on Wednesday.

Drake's Nothing was the Same produced the second largest sales week of the year thus far. The album, which is the Canadian rapper's third studio album, sold 658,000 copies in its first week, according Nielsen SoundScan figures.

Only The 20/20 Experience, Justin Timberlake's album released in March, bested Drake's week sales this year. The 20/20 Experience sold 968,000 copies in its first week.

Nothing Was the Same's success means that every one of Drake's studio albums has debuted at Number 1 on the Billboard 200 Chart. In fact, Nothing Was the Same has the best opening week of a rap album since Lil Wayne's Tha Carter IV, which was released in Sept. 2011.

Drake bested the debut of other reputable artists' albums, Cher, Metallica, Sting, Kings of Leon and Elton John.

Fellow rapper Kendrick Lamar, however, is not celebrating with Drake.

Kendrick Lamar recently recorded a cypher verse for the BET Awards. A preview was posted to All Hip Hop's Instagram page. In the preview, Lamar has a few choice words for Drake.

"And nothing's been the same since they dropped 'Control'/And tucked a sensitive rapper back in his pajama clothes/Ha ha, jokes on you," Lamar raps.

This is not the first time Lamar has had something to say about Drake. In "Control," the Big Sean single to which Lamar refers in his cypher verse, Lamar raps about outshining Drake and other rappers.

"I'm usually homeboys with the same niggas I'm rhymin' with/But this is hip-hop and them n***as should know what time it is/And that goes for Jermaine Cole, Big KRIT, Wale/Pusha T, Meek Millz, A$AP Rocky, Drake/Big Sean, Jay Electron', Tyler, Mac Miller/I got love for you all but I'm tryna murder you n***as/Trying to make sure your core fans never heard of you n****s," Lamar raps in his verse.

Drake claims that he was not intimidated by Lamar's verse in "Control."

"I didn't really have anything to say about it," Drake said when Billboard asked him his thoughts on hearing Lamar's verse. "It just sounded like an ambitious thought to me. That's all it was. I know good and well that Kendrick's not murdering me, at all, in any platform. So when that day presents itself, I guess we can revisit the topic."

Drake has yet to make a comment on Lamar's cypher verse.
