How does Heat Waves not have over 2B streams on Spotify by now. It's been on the charts for nearly two years

From 500+ to barely outselling Bad Bunny 4th week

Bad Bunny still selling more than 100k in his fourth week is honestly incredible, this album aint leaving the top 10 for a year atleast

i know people are probably tired of this topic but do you guys think there's any artist that's capable of hitting Drake's streaming numbers in the next 3 years? 567k streaming units for his last album (CLB)

I remember in 2018 I thought Post Malone was gonna challenge that eventually, but it seems like he has no core fanbase. In 2020 I thought Travis Scott would challenge one day based on how insane he was at marketing but after the incident there's no chance

37. Culture II - 225 million
38. SOUR (2nd week) - 223 million
39. Certified Lover Boy (3rd week) - 222 million
40. Hollywood's Bleeding (2nd week) - 221 million

48. Invasion of Privacy - 203 million
49. YHLQMDLG - 201 million
50. Still Over It - 201 million

With the exception of Drake, no one has ever come close to even 500M US streams. Lil Wayne & Post Malone came the closest back in 2018 but after them, the only other acts to even reach 400M US streams were Juice WRLD & Lil Uzi Vert back in 2020.

Long story short, no. Drake set the record for the biggest streaming week on the Billboard 200 over 4 years ago and almost broke it last year with CLB but I think even 4 years from now, if anyone will break/match his record, it'll be him. Post Malone was the most promising streaming act in the US 3/4 years ago but he's since lost that momentum.

A Mad Ass Nigga

a lot of people that dislike drake don’t even rock with that melon head ass nigga. Drake probably got more nerd fans than not whole time lol. Y’all be tryna make all Drake fans seem like cool ass niggas that go to mad parties and f*** mad b****es. No, a lot of drake fans are the nerds y’all talk about as well. Being a drake fan shouldn’t even be a personality trait 😭

I guarantee you that out in the wild people that dislike Drake see it as a bigger piece of their personality than the people that enjoy his music
