According to Hip-Hop media outlet Bars, the Toronto rapper has now finished as Spotify’s most streamed rapper for 12 consecutive months, closing out February 2026 at No. 1 again. Tallies shared by music accounts and republished by outlets covering the update place Drake at about 1.45 billion Spotify streams across all credits for the month.
He did not just lead the month, he led it by a lot. One widely shared breakdown of February’s Spotify rap totals lists Don Toliver next at 766M, Kanye West at 706M and his very own infamous nemesis Kendrick Lamar at 603M, with Future (570M) and Travis Scott (558M) also in the February top tier.
This news comes as Drake’s Spotify numbers are still being powered by the old faithfuls. His most played records on the platform are largely the decade-old staples, from One Dance to cuts from Take Care, which continue to pull huge streams even without a new rollout. And with his ninth studio album, ICEMAN, expected to release sometime this year, it would make sense if fans are doing what they always do before a new Drake era: running the classics back.
Still, the numbers make one thing clear: even if the 6ix God does not release another project anytime soon, fans are going “Nonstop” with him.
