Drake extends multiple records on Billboard’s Streaming Songs chart with new album Honestly, Nevermind, paced by yet another No. 1 on the July 2-dated tally.
“Jimmy Cooks,” featuring 21 Savage, crowns the latest survey with 42.2 million official U.S. streams in the June 17-23 tracking week, according to Luminate.
It’s Drake’s chart-leading 13th No. 1 since the ranking began in 2013, a record not even close to being matched; Justin Bieber boasts the second-most rulers with six, while Taylor Swift is third with five.

Drake first paced Streaming Songs in 2016 when he was featured on Rihanna’s “Work,” while “One Dance” later that year became his first lead ruler. Prior to “Jimmy,” he had last crowned the list earlier while featured on Future’s “Wait for U” alongside Tems; that song, the previous No. 1, drops to No. 5 July 2.
It’s also 21 Savage’s second Streaming Songs No. 1. His other, also as a featured artist, came on Post Malone’s “Rockstar,” a 14-week ruler beginning in 2017. (His best as a lead act remains the No. 2-peaking “Runnin,” a co-bill with Metro Boomin, in 2020.)
In all, five songs from Honestly, Nevermind hit Streaming Songs’ top 10, with “Jimmy” followed by “Falling Back” at No. 2 (28.8 million). With five top 10s added to his tally, Drake now possesses 72 top 10s, again by far the all-time leader, with nearly three times the number of runner-up The Weeknd, with 26.
