Apple Music, in collaboration with chart analytics platform chartdata, has unveiled its all-time ranking of the 20 most-streamed artistes on the platform, with Drake emerging as the top performer.
The Canadian superstar leads a list that places Taylor Swift at No. 2 and Future at No. 3. YoungBoy Never Broke Again occupies fourth place, while Bad Bunny rounds out the top five.
The wider top 20 includes some of the most influential names in modern music, including Eminem, Justin Bieber, Ed Sheeran, Rod Wave, Gunna, Lil Durk, Kendrick Lamar, Chris Brown, Ariana Grande, Travis Scott, Post Malone, Kanye West, Morgan Wallen, The Weeknd at No. 7, and Lil Baby at No. 6.
Drake’s position at the summit reflects his sustained dominance across streaming platforms, built on a catalogue that continues to generate massive global consumption years after release. His recent run of projects, including Iceman, Maid of Honor, and Habibti, has further strengthened his streaming footprint across major platforms.
Following the release of those projects, Drake set new benchmarks by becoming the most-streamed artiste in a single day on both Apple Music and Spotify. Apple Music also previously named him its most-streamed artiste of 2026, while more than 60 of his songs simultaneously appeared on the U.S. Apple Music chart during the same period. He also holds 27 entries on Apple Music’s all-time top 500 most-streamed songs list, more than any other artiste.
His commercial momentum has also carried over to the Billboard 200, where Iceman recently spent a third consecutive week at No. 1, earning 171,000 equivalent album units in the United States for the week ending June 4.
The achievement places Iceman among Drake’s most successful chart runs, joining earlier projects such as 2021’s Certified Lover Boy, which spent five weeks at the top of the Billboard 200.
Beyond streaming and chart performance, Drake’s global dominance has also been reflected in industry recognition. Earlier this year, the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) named him the world’s best-selling rapper for the 11th consecutive year. In its 2025 Global Artiste Chart, he ranked No. 3 overall, behind Taylor Swift and Stray Kids.
