Spotify’s much-awaited Wrapped is finally here, along with users who can access their own most streamed artists, songs, and more in 2022, most streamed artists, music, and other year-end trends are also revealed by the leading streaming giant. A Revisit Of 2022's Album Relea... Please enable JavaScript Spotify has unveiled the top genre Hip-Hop’s Most Streamed Albums Of The Year list, which is topped by Canadian star Drake’s last year album “Certified Lover Boy”. Drizzy has two other albums appearing on the Top 10, his surprised album this year “Honestly, Nevermind” and 2018’s superhit album “Scorpion” are at #4 and #10 respectively. Drake was also named the most streamed artist of the year in the US. Returning with a studio album after 5 long years Kendrick Lamar has touched down at #2 on the list with “Mr. Morale and The Big Steppers”. Lamar has made his presence on the list with his 2017 album “DAMN.” at #7 as well.
One of the certified legends, Eminem has surprised everyone with his two classic albums “The Eminem Show” and “The Marshall Mathers LP” entering at #3 and #8 respectively. Both diamond-selling albums have been released over two decades ago. It’s been over 2 years since we lost the talented Juice WRLD, but the rapper’s music continues to dominate streaming platforms and charts. Last month, Juice WRLD’s hit 2018’s single “Lucid Dreams” became his first song to reach RIAA Diamond status after selling over 10 million copies in the US.
Now the single also dominates Spotify as it became the second most-streamed hip hop song of all time on the platform. Lucid Dreams surpassed Drake’s Scorpion hit “God’s Plan” to achieve this accolade. The song is now the 15th most-streamed song of all time on Spotify. The song is also closing in on 2 Billion Spotify streams as it’s currently on over 1.9B. The most streamed rap song on Spotify is currently Post Malone’s 21 Savage collaboration “Rockstar“, which has over 2.3 billion streams. Before passing Ed Sheeran’s “Thinking Out Loud” and James Arthur’s “Say You Won’t Let Go,” which are both nearing 2 billion streams, “Lucid Dreams” will need to pass them. Just a few months back, a new posthumous album “Fighting Demons” from the late rapper was released, which debuted at #2 on US Billboard 200.
