Drake continues to cast a multi-platinum shadow over the likes of Justin Bieber, Chris Brown and Jason Derulo.
Standing tall as only of the only artists to enjoy success on streaming and pure sale fronts alike, the rapper has discovered that streams garnered by songs on his ‘More Life‘ release have crossed the 1 billion mark.
With this, the set spends its third week atop the Billboard 200 with 136,000 equivalent album units, extending the star’s lead as Pop and Hip-Hop’s reigning champ.
The set’s 22 tracks have now generated more than 1 billion on-demand audio streams in the U.S.: 1.07 billion through the week ending April 6, according to Nielsen Music. The latest tracking week pushed it past the billion threshold, as it collected another 167 million streams in the frame.
