I mean because of Chicago Freestyle a lot people discovered his songs and then Like I Want You was all over tik tok(if I’m not mistaken)

Peaches of course blew him up more

Not to mention he’s just a talented singer so he put in the work to get to where he is now, but being exposed because of Drake + tik tok helped tremendously

ahhh ok, thought u were one of the fellow dutch users on this site for some reason

You basically got keep your name in the conversation 24/7 when you have that kind of breakout year if you want to sustain it.

Tbh she might need to do a hip hop collab

heartbreak anniversary came before that

It also benefited Drake cause without Giveon Chicago Freestyle wouldn’t have hit the same (unless it was Sampha lmao)

Dead ass thought it was sampha

Drake becomes the fifth act with more than 10 No. 1 albums on the Billboard 200 since the chart began regularly publishing on a weekly basis in 1956. He joins The Beatles (who lead with a record 19 No. 1s), Jay-Z (14), Bruce Springsteen and Barbra Streisand (each with 11).

In fact, the last time an album as short (or shorter) as Honestly, Nevermind had a larger streaming week was over a year ago, when Olivia Rodrigo’s 11-track Sour bowed with 300.73 million on-demand official streams (chart dated June 5, 2021).

The most-streamed cut on Honestly, Nevermind, by on-demand official streams, is its closing track “Jimmy Cooks,” featuring 21 Savage, with 39.59 million. The second-and-third-most streamed tracks are the album’s opening song “Falling Back” (27.05 million) and “Sticky” (26.16 million). “Falling” is the only song from the album with an official music video, and 3.03 million of its streams came from video plays. (Looking only at on-demand official audio streams, the two most-streamed tracks on the set are “Jimmy Cooks,” with 37.93 million and “Sticky,” with 25.37 million.)

“Jimmy Cooks” and “Sticky” are the most rap-forward cuts on the album. Combined, the two songs accounted for 26% of the album’s first-week on-demand official streams (65.75 million of 250.23 million).

In total, Honestly, Nevermind is Drake’s 14th top 10-charting album on the Billboard 200. From 2009, when he first charted, onwards, he’s logged at least one new top 10 in every year except for 2012 and 2014. Honestly gives Drake an eighth consecutive year with a new top 10 album (stretching back to 2015’s What a Time to Be Alive, with Future, and If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late – both No. 1s). No other act has notched a new top 10 in every year since 2015.

Yup

Y’all claim drake blew up everybody Lmao

I doubt Olivia breaks that trend of not doing features but it'd be nice to see her have another album era nearly as big as her debut album era. I like her music.

I think everybody did as well cause he released the video first and it didn’t say who the feature was until they uploaded it to soundcloud

What?
Bad Bunny and Drake aren't even in the same musical genre

Tbh has any female singer sustained their first year hype aside from Adele

it's a shame cause I really do think collabing is the #1 important thing these days

even Bad Bunny has done so many

cole is to

They missed DLDT

How will Drake ever financially recover from this

Wow.

they skipped dldt to add the sfg rerelease
