In a landmark feat, Drake has become the first artist to reach 115 billion streams across all credits on Spotify.
These major milestone is a furtherance of Drake’s status as the biggest star of the streaming era.

These historic feats are a testament to his status as one of the most commercial artists globally, especially in the United States, where he holds multiple charting records.
