Drake Extends Reign as Spotify's Top Rapper in 2023

Cementing His Legacy: After All-Time Title, Drake Leads the Pack Again

September 16, 2024

Drake concluded 2023 by securing the title of the most streamed rapper on Spotify, with an impressive 17.6 billion streams on the platform, according to Chart Data. Earlier in the year, RapCaviar had also recognized him as Spotify's most streamed rapper of all time, with Eminem, Kanye West, Juice WRLD, and XXXTentacion following closely.

While Drake claimed the title of the most streamed rapper, Metro Boomin's "Heroes & Villains" emerged as Spotify's most streamed rap album of 2023. Reports indicate that the December 2022 release garnered a remarkable 3.3 billion Spotify streams in the past year, making it the sole rap album to surpass three billion streams in 2023.
