Billie Eilish’s Happier Than Ever debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart, earning the highest album sales and audio on-demand streams total for the week. It is the follow-up to her chart-topping album When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go, which spent six weeks at No. 1 and was the tenth most popular album of 2020.


Last week’s No. 1 album, The Kid Laroi’s F*ck Love, drops to 2nd place, Olivia Rodrigo’s Sour and Doja Cat’s Planet Her both fall one position to Nos. 3 and 4 respectively, and Dua Lipa’s Future Nostalgia holds at 5.

Drake Drops Booking Agent He Shared With Kendrick Lamar

After more than a decade of working together, Drake has cut ties with Brent Smith at Wasserman Music.

Drake quietly parted ways with the booking agent he shared with longtime rival Kendrick Lamar earlier this year, Billboard has learned, in a move largely kept quiet to avoid media scrutiny.

One source tells Billboard that Drake and former longtime agent Brent Smith of Wasserman Music have not worked together for most, if not all, of 2025 due in part to the fallout over last year’s feud with Lamar and the release of his Billboard Hot 100-topping diss track “Not Like Us.”
