It’s safe to presume Drake is back in the studio, working on his new album, based on recent social media posts.
Carnage aka Gordo was in Canada with Drake working on some tunes and then hitting the clubs before his gig at Coachella this weekend playing the Jeeter-sponsored showcase for Tao.

A song leaked with Drake and Jack Harlow titled “Have A Turn” where Drake throws subliminal shots at Pusha T. Apparently, Drake isn’t ready to call a truce even after making peace with his boss Kanye West.

Hip-hop’s favorite gambler is at it again. Drake, who recently placed three bets on the Super Bowl for a shade over a million bucks (he hit two of them) and lost $100K when North Carolina beat Duke in the NCAA tournament, is putting some serious coin down on the NBA Playoffs. While Drake is a part owner of the Eastern Conference’s Toronto Raptors and a well-documented courtside presence at their games, he’s looking for action in Western Conference playoffs instead.
Drake has put down $200,000 Canadian dollars (about $158,624 US) on the Golden State Warriors to win the Western Conference Finals and make it to the NBA Finals. The rapper posted a screenshot of the online betting slip on his Instagram Story showing that the Warriors have 5 to 1 odds to come out of the West.

If they make it to the Finals, Drake would claim a cool $1 million Canadian dollars ($793,112). It’s a bold bet considering the Phoenix Suns were the best team in the West in the regular season by a comfortable eight game margin. The Warriors are set to open the playoffs against the Denver Nuggets, which won’t be a walk in the park considering how unguardable Nikola Jokic can be. If they win that series, they’ll face the winner of the Memphis Grizzlies and the Minnesota Timberwolves. A showdown with the Suns in the West finals is the likeliest outcome and Drake can only hope that “Steph Curry with the shot boy” is healthy all series, dominates and takes the Dubs into the finals.
Drake is the king of streaming. Even just looking at Spotify numbers, he’s been the platform’s most-streamed artists on three separate years (more times than anybody else) and he was the platform’s most-streamed artist of the 2010s. His popularity continued in 2021: Billboard reports last year, his music had more on-demand audio streams in the US than the combined total streams of every song from before 1980.
Billboard breaks it down:
“Music released in the 1990s generated 60 billion streams in 2021, which translates to 6.07% of streams; music released during the 1980s accounted for 33.84 billion streams, or 3.42%. Music released before then doesn’t even account for a single-digit percentage point: Music from the 1970s scored 3.51 billion streams, or 0.36% of the total; music from the 1960s had 2.64 billion streams, or 0.27%; and 1950s material generated just 212.85 million streams, or 0.02%. (The market share of music released before that is too small to count.) All told, music released before 1980 accounted for 0.6% of 2021 US on-demand streaming – while Drake himself generated 7.91 billion streams, or 0.8%.”
Looking at other data, it would seem Taylor Swift also beat everything pre-1980 last year (in a notably close call), as Billboard previously reported, “Drake racked up nearly 1.9 billion more on-demand audio streams [in the US] than Swift, the country’s second most-streamed artist, who accounted for 0.61% of all on-demand audio streams.”
While the all-time streaming charts tend to favor new music, there is one song from the ’70s that has thrived: Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody” is the only song from the decade in the top 100 most-streamed songs on Spotify (and just one of two from before the 2000s, alongside Oasis’ “Wonderwall“). On Spotify’s official 240-song “BILLIONS CLUB” playlist, which collects songs with a billion streams on the platform, Queen has four songs, while Drake has eight. Swift’s sole entry on the playlist is her Zayn collaboration “I Don’t Wanna Live Forever.”
Excuse me, ladies. Have you dreamed about Drake? Sorry to tell you but you are not the only one. The “God’s Plan” rapper is the third most dreamt about celebrity on the planet. Who beat him? Just Harry Styles and K-Pop superstar and BTS member Junkook.
Secret Linen Store, an online luxury bed linen supplier, wanted to know which celebrities appeared most frequently in our dreams and dug into the data to find out.
The data shows that the most dreamed about celebrity in the globe is British musician and heart throb Harry Styles, according to Twitter, where hundreds of individuals post about their latest celebrity dream every day. According to Twitter data, the former One Direction member has appeared in roughly 800 dreams since the release of his debut single from his upcoming album Harry’s House. Jungkook, a member of the highly renowned boy band BTS, is the second most wished-for star, while Drake, a Canadian rapper, is the third.
Taylor Swift (4th) is the most desired female celebrity, with only Euphoria star Zendaya (7th) and Kim Kardashian (10th) rounding out the top ten.
The only other hip-hop musician in the top 10 is American rapper Jack Harlow, who is the 9th most desired celebrity — his songs frequently go viral on TikTok, and he just collaborated with Lil Nas X. Timothee Chalamet (5th), Zendaya’s boyfriend and fellow star of Spider-Man: No Way Home, Tom Holland (6th), and Robert Pattinson (8th), who recently starred as the latest Batman, round out the top ten.
“Seeing that Harry Styles is very much the man of the moment, we weren’t too surprised to find out he was the most dreamt about celebrity,” said Molly Freshwater, co=founder of Secret Linen Store. “However, it was certainly interesting to see which other famous faces are appearing most in our dreams. Although we can’t guarantee a night of Harry Styles-filled dreams, we do recommend making a few bedtime changes to ensure you have the best possible environment for dreaming. Make sure to change up your bedding as the temperatures change (linen for when it’s warm and brushed cotton for the colder nights), use a pillow spray with lavender or eucalyptus scents and try to reduce your screen time before you hit the hay.”
