Drake Shatters Spotify Record with ‘Make Them Cry’

Drake has officially set a new Spotify record for the biggest streaming day for a hip-hop song, surpassing the previous benchmark held by Kendrick Lamar.

At one point in time, it seemed as though the record set by Kendrick Lamar with ‘Not Like Us’ would remain untouchable. However, the landscape of hip-hop streaming has shifted dramatically following the release of Drake‘s latest project, Iceman, alongside two additional albums released on the same day.

With a staggering 13.2 million streams in a single day on Spotify for the track ‘Make Them Cry,’ Drake has officially established a new record for the biggest streaming day for a hip-hop song. This achievement marks a significant milestone in his career and reinforces his dominance in the digital music space.

Featuring an iconic image of Michael Jackson’s glove on the cover, the project has seen immediate commercial success. Drake continues to lean into his reputation as the most widely consumed artist in the genre, and these latest figures provide substantial evidence to support that claim. As the industry observes this culture-defining moment, the focus now turns to how this momentum will sustain in the coming weeks.
