While Drake's beef with Kendrick Lamar hasn't gone well, the data says that the Canadian rapper is more popular than ever.

Drake already has eight billion streams on Spotify in 2024.  That puts him on pace for his biggest streaming year ever, even though the usually prolific rapper hasn't dropped a project in '24.
