A decade later, Drake’s “One Dance” still dominates, making history as the first rap song to reach 4 billion Spotify streams.

Drake just did it again. “One Dance,” his global smash with Wizkid and Kyla, has officially surpassed 4 BILLION streams on Spotify, making it the first song by a rapper ever to hit that milestone. That’s insane.

Released ten years ago on Views, “One Dance” immediately became a cultural phenomenon, blending Drake’s smooth flows with Wizkid’s Afrobeat rhythms and Kyla’s hypnotic vocal sample. It’s a track that’s built for the dancefloor, the club, and those late-night drives when the vibes just hit right.

When you consider Drake’s catalog—”Headlines,” “Passionfruit,” “God’s Plan”—it’s wild to see that a ten-year-old track still reigns supreme as his most-streamed song. But honestly? Given Drake is the most-streamed rapper of all time and dominates Spotify charts even now, maybe it’s not that surprising.

As I think about it, I hate to be that guy, but is “One Dance” even a rap song? I actually don’t know which category to place it in.
