Drake becomes first artist to surpass 140 billion Spotify streams

Drake has become the first artist in Spotify history to surpass 140 billion streams, according to data from Kworb. This milestone places him significantly ahead of other major artists, including Taylor Swift, who holds second place with approximately 130 billion streams, and Bad Bunny, who follows with 128 billion.

The Canadian rapper maintains a high level of daily engagement, averaging roughly 57 million streams per day on the platform. This momentum is supported by a prolific release schedule in 2026, which includes the projects ‘ICEMAN’, ‘HABIBTI’, and ‘MAID OF HONOUR’.

His album ‘ICEMAN’ has seen particular commercial success in the United States, qualifying for RIAA double-platinum certification after moving over two million units. This achievement follows Drake reaching the 130 billion stream mark in March 2026.
