At the end of August 2025, rap’s dominance on Spotify couldn’t be clearer, with artists pulling in tens of millions of streams every single day.

Spotify remains one of the biggest measuring sticks for an artist’s global impact, and at the end of August 2025, the daily streaming numbers for rap’s elite tell the full story. Leading the way is Drake, pulling in an astonishing 49.4 million daily streams. Currently, “NOKIA,” “Which One,” and “What Did I Miss?” are doing the heavy lifting.

Behind him, Travis Scott continues to ride high with 22.9 million streams per day, showing the lasting power of UTOPIA and the strength of his recent JACKBOYS 2 collaboration album. Kendrick Lamar follows with 21.1 million, a reflection of both his timeless catalog and his outstanding GNX album. Rounding out the top five are Kanye West, with 19.5 million, and Eminem, with 18.9 million, two legends whose catalogs continue to thrive across generations.

Further down the list, you see today’s favorites holding strong: Future (18.6M), Tyler, The Creator (16.1M), and Lil Wayne (14.8M) still pull major numbers, while rising and consistent forces like Gunna (13.7M) and Doja Cat (13.3M) cement their positions.

Even legacy icons like 50 Cent (8.1M) and Jay-Z (8.0M) continue to draw millions daily, proving hip-hop’s streaming dominance stretches across decades. From Drake’s unstoppable wave to underground favorites like $uicideboy$ (9.5M), the variety of rap’s top streamers shows just how wide the culture’s reach truly is.
