Drake and 21 Savage have added another accolade to their resumés thanks to their collaborative album Her Loss still putting up impressive streaming numbers.
On Monday (December 26), Spotify announced Her Loss had surpassed one billion Spotify streams since it was released a little under two months ago on November 4. The news gives 21 Savage his first album to grab one billion streams on the platform, while Drake now holds the record with 12 straight albums crossing the mark.

Her Lossdebuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and moved over 404,000 album-equivalent units in its first week, giving it the third-highest opening this year in music. Drake and 21 Savage had their 12th and third No. 1 album with Her Loss, respectively, and earned a total of 514 million on-demand streams.
The album was fueled by several records that also received visual treatments that parodied live performances, such as “On BS” and “Privileged Rappers.” The Her Loss duo also dropped a homemade music video for the album opener, “Rich Flex,” which further brought fans to the album.
During an interview on SiriusXM Sound 42 last month, the OVO boss proclaimed that Her Loss is one of the “greatest albums” he’s been a part of and believes it could even crack the Top 3 in his decorated catalog.
“[Her Loss] is one of the greatest albums I ever made in my life,” he declared. “I said the other day, I think this is a clear entry into my Top 5 of my catalog — if not, Top 3.”
The album also saw Drake and 21 helping to pen some of each other’s verses. “I ain’t gon cap, Drake wrote some of my verses on this album,” 21 said. “These facts. I don’t give a fuck what a n-gga say, Drake helped me with some of my verses on this album.”
The Toronto mogul added: “By the way, you also helped me with shit too.”

In addition to Her Loss hitting one billion streams, Drizzy’s Honestly, Nevermind — which was released in June — also crossed the coveted Spotify streaming figure landmark earlier this month. And if that weren’t enough, the 6 God also became the first rapper in history to hit one billion Spotify streams with 10 different songs in October.
