Drake is finishing off 2024 as Spotify’s most streamed rapper in the U.S. and globally. On Wednesday, Spotify unveiled its highly anticipated end-of-the-year Wrapped list. The “Rich Baby Daddy” himself topped his hip hop rivals, beating out the likes of Future, Metro Boomin and Kendrick Lamar, all whom Drake has spent the better part of the year in a rap beef with. With Kendrick in particular scoring a No.1 hit with his Drake diss “Not Like Us”, which became the second most streamed song in the U.S., and he currently has a No.1 album with GNX. Not to be outdone, Drake’s top hip-hop artist of 2024 gives the “First Person Shooter” rapper a remarkable flex — he’s been Spotify Wrapped’s top hip-hop artist eight years in a row! Even in a year full of rap beefs, it looks like Drizzy still has his loyal fans supporting him.
