According to Spotify, Drake's "In My Feelings" Was the Song of the Summer After All
Drake and Cardi B land top spots on Spotify's most streamed songs of the summer list while rapper Juice WRLD saw a breakout entry.
On Monday, Spotify revealed its 2018’s Songs of the Summer list with Drake's "In My Feelings" as the most streamed song of the summer.
Maroon 5’s “Girls Like You” featuring Cardi B is the second most-streamed song of the summer, with about 293 million streams. Cardi B’s “I Like It” featuring J Balvin and Bad Bunny came in third place with more than 289 million streams.
Breakout artist Juice WRLD, the19-yr-old Chicago rapper whose track “Lucid Dreams” has been in rotation on Spotify’s global chart for the last two months, came in at no. 4.
"Juice WRLD is undoubtedly the breakout star of the summer,” Carl Chery, Spotify’s Head of Urban Music, said in a statement. “His rise was one of the quickest in recent memory but his music has proven to have staying power. His knack for melodies and his willingness to be vulnerable on songs like ‘Lucid Dreams’ connected with his audience in a real way."
