Fourteen years later, Drake’s most beloved album is still carrying serious weight.

Drake’s Take Care just reached a new milestone, earning its biggest streaming day of all time on Spotify with 4.47 million streams. Even in 2025, the album remains the sixth most-played rap album on the platform daily, an impressive feat for a project released in 2011.

What makes this moment even more striking is that Drake hasn’t released a solo album this year. Instead, it’s his back catalog doing the heavy lifting. Albums like Views, Certified Lover Boy, and Take Care continue to dominate playlists, reminding listeners just how deep his discography runs.

Often considered Drake’s magnum opus, Take Care reshaped the sound of mainstream rap with its emotional honesty, moody production, and melodic vulnerability. The album features guest appearances from Kendrick Lamar, Rick Ross, Rihanna, and The Weeknd (All enemies of his now), and includes timeless records like “Headlines,” “The Motto,” and “Marvins Room.”

With ICEMAN rumored to be on the horizon, the renewed dominance of Take Care may be quietly setting the table for Drake’s next era. Fourteen years later, the album isn’t just surviving — it’s thriving.
