Drake’s album Views has just hit an extraordinary milestone on Spotify, becoming the third rap album to surpass 10 billion streams.
This achievement not only solidifies Drake’s position in the music industry but also makes him the only rapper so far to have two albums (with Scorpion being the first) reaching over 10 billion streams on the platform. It’s no surprise as all his projects on Spotify boast over a billion streams each, a feat few artists can claim.
While Drake’s past work continues to earn accolades, he remains forward-focused. Recently, Drake shared on Instagram his appreciation for Chilly “Gonz” Gonzales, highlighting their impactful collaborations. Drake wrote, “Thank you, Gonz. This guy was my neighbor, and we ended up making incredible pieces together, one of the greatest musicians of all time to me.”
Meanwhile, the chatter around Drake’s music and career doesn’t seem to wane. A$AP Bari, during a podcast, confidently stated, “Nah, it can never be over for Drake. Drake is Drake.” He added, “If you gon’ start some s**t, finish it. You understand?”
Drake’s new releases, however, haven’t always matched the success and reception of Views. He and Snowd4y dropped an animated music video for “Wah Gwan Delilah,” sparking memes about its parody cover. Despite mixed reactions, fans eagerly anticipate what he will deliver next.
Drake’s remarkable streaming milestones with Views underscore his enduring impact and dominance in the music world. Only time will tell what heights he’ll reach next.
