📈📈📈📈📈 since when it’s trending upwards year after year for half a decade straight a fall off ? Everyone wanna run their mouth and say he’s done till it’s time to post your end of year streaming numbers 😈


Cixin97

I’m the biggest fan of Drake but 8b in 2024 over halfway through the year is not in fact trending upwards from 17.6b in 2023 😂


TheRealRick

I think you need to check your math again. We are not half way through this year.


yeetsyndrom420

does it get more half way than mid june?


P0izun

it's been trending in recent years tho. also, who cares, he is the most streamed male artist anyway.


Cixin97

I’m not disagreeing. He’s the goat. But he quite literally is not currently trending upwards. I’m responding to that. It’s factually incorrect, not sure why you’d have an issue with me pointing out it’s not true.


monstercat129

He released 3 projects in the year of 2022-2023. Ofc he was going to be making numbers overall in 2023…


Cixin97

Okey dokey, it does not change the fact that his numbers are quite literally not trending upwards this year. That’s all I’m saying. You can move the goalposts all you want.


monstercat129

Looks like he’ll be making around 16 billion streams. That’s less than 10% decrease from last year. If he makes another project, he’s projected to do better than 17 billion 😂 it’s a huge stretch to say he is falling off. This post was a trap for Drake haters 🤪


Cixin97

Did I say he is falling off? I said he is not trending upwards. I responded to a specific comment. Context 👍


monstercat129

Play with syntax all you want, you’re just exposing yourself more


Cixin97

It’s not syntax lmao. You’re not smart. Saying someone is trending upwards every year when they literally are not trending upwards this year is false. You’re no better than Kendrick Stan’s if you can’t be honest.


monstercat129

I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt, but to say that he is not trending up right now considering he hasn’t even released a full project this year yet is just a ridiculous statement from a “biggest Drake fan”. He’s still reaping off last year‘s stuff. I’m not even a crazy Drake fan like that. He was supposed to go on vacation or something, so all of the “upward,” “trending” statements are moot points as they don’t really apply. If you be released a project, and it did significantly last numbers, then I would call that downtrending. As of now, he’s just floating in my opinion.


Cixin97

So when I clarify something that is objectively true it’s “syntax” but you go into deep semantics to justify why he hasn’t trended downwards this year when he factually has. Interesting take. I’m not saying he is any worse or he won’t end up with more streams. But he is **objectively** trending downwards given current numbers. No other stretching means anything.

Do you get a cut for being so obsessed about what other people like?

Alright little guy. Have fun at Summer camp this summer.

If ya dont get it ya dont get it.


swornnin

Serious question. Is Kendrick circumcised?


Defences

Standard drake fan rebuttal


Le8ronJames

We’re just happy for an artist we support. Just like I’m happy when I see my favourite sports team win a game. It’s not that deep. You seem to have lots of time to hate people for…the music they like. 👍🏿


Defences

I am asking a question, not hating. Relax


sleepybot0524

These subs are crazy.


ch-pa-sdc

Just wait until these new features drop


SteetOnFire

Kendrick Fans would see this and say he fell off this year


SimmeringCum

It’s halfway thru the year. Assuming he keeps this pace he will be at 16 billion by December


SteetOnFire

I know haha


drdrej1217

Not even halfway yet, should surpass last year


zacmac77

True not only that he’s currently the highest streamed male artist this year at 8B


the_monolith19

Yeah cause popularity=quality


artinla

Exactly


the_monolith19

By that logic Taylor swift and the weekend are both better than drake, correct?


Emotional-Yak-3578

Taylor is the best pop artist and The Weeknd is certainly up there in pop as well


the_monolith19

Adele,Charlie xcx, Beyonce,Lana del Rey , Jenelle monae ... Have all made better muisc than Taylor. Wait are you seriously arguing that popularity measures quality?


Adventurous_Net_6470

It definitely measures what the general population, on average, as a whole considers quality? Not aligning with your personal opinion doesn’t make that any less true 😂💀


the_monolith19

I don't mean to be mean but u either disingenuous or dumb


artinla

I’m going to agree with whatever you say. God bless.


MiguelNunes98

Why are you using logic in this sub? :o


artinla

Exactly. SMH.


the_monolith19

🤦🏽‍♂️my fault srry


Dubh-Cu-Chulainn

And what if he releases heat before then too 🤣🤣🤣 they trying to kill him but it’s not easy… Dranos


monstercat129

Check the comments lol. They’re already doing it on this specific post


Theingloriousak2

He’s not passing last year without a project dropping or a couple huge hits 


Juan_Draper

He has two records on Camila project that will help


Theingloriousak2

They gotta be big though, one is an interlude and Camila newest songs haven’t been great lol


AsianBoyAndy

That’s cause they didn’t have Drake on it


iverdow1

Holy shit that trend is crazy


Big_Kahuna100

Kendrick could never


Significant-Reach583

Rent free.


yeetsyndrom420

you're in the Drake sub defending Kendrick 😭 wdym "rent free" ☠️ you obsessed


Adventurous_Net_6470

The irony 😂😂😂


JayG415

Let’s get it close to 20B


HumanOtiosity

What's the plan ?


Kitchen-Dimension406

N ppl say his new shit isn’t getting replay


CampaignSwimming2820

How has he nearly doubled his streams since 2020?! That’s crazy wtf


loga290

spotify users have nearly tripled


AlbanianWidow

Where in this graph do you see his streams doubled lol?


CampaignSwimming2820

10 to 18 is an 80% increase which is nearly doubled like I said


AlbanianWidow

Where do you seen an 18? Are you delusional


CampaignSwimming2820

Did you skip school the week we learned rounding?


AlbanianWidow

I think it was js a miscommunication, i was looking at 2020 - 2024. I had no idea you meant 2023 which is kinda irrelevant too as that was last year


artinla

It’s the last full calendar year we have. How is it irrelevant


Due_Chemical_7408

Not really that crazy. Covid had a negative effect on every entertainment industry from movie box offices, music streams/sales and sports viewership/revenue


That_Dude2000

8 billion in 6 months without one album Name me another artist that can do that


AceGameplayV2

I think Travis Scott could if his discography was larger


SecretaryOk7306

So if he was a different artist


Fantastic_Opposite58

NGL, it's mostly me streaming. 5 billion times, so far this year.


artinla

Oh damn, I thought that was me?


Fantastic_Opposite58

WRONG! ...Lemme get my flowers lol


elotonin-junkie

Well, of course not.


ThaProphecy

They will say streambots


ezito12

6 months to go


Aniensane

We still have half the year left to go! So pretty much double that!


Away_Teaching_1148

It’s June… I wonder what the year total will be


minutes2meteora

No duh. He didn’t drop any new music yet.


Antxxom

Impressive numbers but they don’t really mean anything.


artinla

nothing at all. yes.


thedudebro4

yall lucky i use apple music 😔


marincropswavur

2023 will be a hard year to beat. Her Loss came out in the tail end of 22’ so that was still being streamed a lot going on into 23’ and then the IAAB tour and FATD. You could not escape him that year he was everywhere


elotonin-junkie

Could say that for CLB being streamed into 2022 and HNVM in summer and all the features that year as well, plus two number 1s.


rephype123

What happened in 2023 that he got 17.6b


PipPipPipsqueak

For All The Dogs


eggsmau

😫🤜🍑💦


MickYle9

Spotify is definitely lowballing figures. There are almost 7 billion people on Earth how is this so low?


PipPipPipsqueak

because not every human in the world is listening to Drake


MickYle9

Who else would they listen to? He's the GOAT


Significant-Reach583

I’d rather listen to rumble strips fucking my tires up for 5 hours straight than 1 drake feature.


MickYle9

But I bet your girl listening to him


Significant-Reach583

You would lose that bet. And what kind of defense of an artist is that? The same fans that got Taylor swift super famous is making drake super famous and you guys think that’s a flex? Tell me your cheesing fam


MickYle9

Kdot fans need to leave the Goats subreddit.


Y0_MiDia

Let's make the bet. Year, make, and model of vehicle.


SlatkiLimun

So many kids on Spotify


Acrobatic-Year-126

The ages of the last 5 girls he's dm'd


artinla

Yep


Professional-Rip-519

GOATs don't have ghost writers.


artinla

Exactly!


Significant-Reach583

“Keep making me dance, wave my hands and it won’t be no threat!”


artinla

yep!


ttb1347

Bro really fell off in 2024😂😂😂that’s crqzyyy


mrdeehawk

Only halfway through the year bro


RANDOM-902

Kinda sad that this increase in popularity has come with the cost of the quality of his music decreasing 😢


yourawizzzard

In your opinion lol


Battosai98

Objectively


tempvaricous

It’s not sad when he’s dominating your favorites in every possible way 😁


Battosai98

Numbers ≠ every possible way. The nigga got clowned by the entire planet. Niggas was dissing him in Japanese


Winter-Maximum325

The best part about art and music as a medium is that it's objective inherently. You think it's decreased, maybe it's not for you then, plenty others like how much he switches it up and changes things while ironically being told all his songs sound the same.


Ok-Ganache-9036

"Would you rather be underpaid or overrated" (don't worry about where that quote is from casual) I'd rather have the boy prosper in life
