Drake has simply not put a foot wrong in recent months. Whether it’s him taking a healthy interest in our culture and sharing the mic, as well as the stage, with some of our best and brightest stars.

Or it’s simply the fact that he’s banged out seven number one albums on the trot; that is of course if More Life meets its lofty expectations.

Given some brand new statistics it looks set to, as it has already set new records. More Life was streamed an eye watering 89.9 million times on Apple Music in its first 24 hours.  It seems that Drake does “make rap albums that do numbers like its pop”.

These simply astonishing numbers have had a positive knock on effect for all the artists that feature alongside Drake, including the likes of Giggs, Skepta and Jorja Smith.

With More Life doing outrageous numbers, you can imagine it would be a perfect gateway to introduce Drake fans to some of the UK’s finest. It seems that exactly this is what has happened. Check out our earlier piece for a closer look at some of the statistics.
