Drake’s run in the music industry has been something people have to witness to believe. The 6 God continues to break streaming records, and he’s maintained his position atop the Hip Hop mountain for several years already.
With his latest album, Certified Lover Boy, Drake is extending his dominating run, and Spotify is taking note of the damage he’s doing on the streaming platform. On Wednesday (December 1), Spotify announced their year-end “Wrapped” charts, and the 6 God is leading the way among all rappers.
On Spotify’s “Top Artists of 2021 Global” list, Drake comes in at number four behind Bad Bunny, Taylor Swift and BTS. The only other rapper on the list is the late Juice WRLD, who closes it out at number 10.
As for the most-streamed artists in the U.S. this past year, Drake took the top spot, with Taylor Swift, Juice WRLD, Kanye West and Bad Bunny coming right after him.
Drizzy Drake accomplished the feat last year, too, landing at number three on Spotify’s global list while taking second place on the U.S. chart behind Juice WRLD. Despite CLB amassing over a billion streams on the platform, Drake doesn’t show up on Spotify’s Top Songs or Top Albums lists for 2021.
Instead, Lil Nas X takes second place on the Global Songs list with “MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name)” and number six on the Global Albums chart with his debut album Montero. Pop Smoke’s Shoot For The Stars Aim For The Moon claims ninth place on the Global Albums list while Juice WRLD’s Legends Never Die takes the fifth spot on Top U.S. Albums.
Doja Cat Snatches Drake's Spotify Crown - As Lil Nas X Also Surpasses The 6 God
Drake seems invincible on Spotify, but he still gets surpassed by other artists from time to time. In October, Doja Cat leapfrogged him in the monthly listeners count, totalling 63.69 million monthly listeners compared to Drake’s 63.3 million.
Not bad. Tell me more jokes
no shit.
Foh… Streams can be bought and faked, Drake sold 46,000 copies the first week and when you consider that Eminem’s MTBMB sold 117,000 copies the first week, I’d say Drake’s shit was a certified flop. It’s actually crazy, over 20 years in the game and Em is still easily outselling the so called “biggest rapper in the game” Drake!
Who just sits there n thinks about shit like this.. n enough to want to post it online… oh an Eminem fan lol 2 things can be correct at the same time my G. SMH
?how people talk like this baffles me, fortunately! Your opinion does not matter ??
Certified Simp, Certified fuckboy
Do right and kill everything lol
Are people streaming it to laugh at it? Who is taking Drake seriously as a rapper? Who are these people? I mean I know teenage girls eat this shit up but cmon. Who actually takes Drake seriously?
Exactly, he’s garbage, . Eminem is a billion times better than any other current rappers, nearly 50, and he wipes the floor with all of them. He’s a lyrical genius, and none can match him!!!
