They can though. Spotify is used all over the world. Apple is very US centric. I would say about half of Drake and Kendrick's Spotify streams are from outside the US.
You’re assuming that the vast majority of Apple Music users are Americans, and then assuming that the vast majority of those American users are mostly streaming Drake songs

Spotify has more users globally then Apple Music so the songs having more streams makes sense.
Do you not think Apple music is more rap oriented then Spotify? Youngboy, Glorilla, Rod Wave, and Lil Baby are great examples to see streaming difference.
Definitely worthy to post that!
Apple music is mainly US so most of the streams are in the US. A lot of rappers get more streams on Apple then on Spotify.
Funny thing is that Spotify is also bigger in the US than AM. Only a few rappers on AM are getting very good streams

"Only a few rappers on AM are getting very good streams"
Based on what? Look at Youngboy, Glorilla, Rod Wave, and Lil Baby numbers on Apple Music vs Spotify. Glorilla went top 3 on Apple music multiple times this year.

Spotify Users by Region
Spotify’s rest of world subscribers surpassed Europe for the first time in 2023, becoming the largest market. The country with the most users is the United States, with over 100 million Spotify users.
Last year, the NMPA tallied 44.4 million Spotify subscribers in the US, compared to 32.6 million for Apple Music.
No, just do it with every artist hitting 100 million on a song
Are they leading it?
Are they leading it?
They barely release 50+ songs every single year (except 2024)

This didn't answer the question. How is this showing that rappers are not doing well on Apple Music?

Can you read? I said not EVERY rapper is doing that well on AM. Some of them are doing better numbers on Spotify.
Actually, only the rappers who had deals with AM (not everyone of course) are doing big numbers there.

You’re telling me that albums vanish from existence after they’ve been out for 7 days?!

What rappers have deals with AM? What rappers are doing worse on Apple Music then Spotify?
