## Resource

Drake’s Iceman just shattered another milestone, hitting one billion Spotify streams — his 18th album to do so, a record no other artist has touched. Dropping May 15 as part of a surprise triple release, it stormed straight to 1 on the Billboard 200 with 460K units sold in its first week. In just 24 hours, it racked up 140 million streams, and nearly three weeks later, it’s still dominating charts globally, averaging 22 million daily streams. Critics and fans alike are raving about its razor-sharp lyrics and beats — even Kendrick Lamar’s former critics are now praising it. This latest triumph cements Drake’s decade-long reign as the streaming king, proving his music still commands massive, global attention.
