Most Streamed Rappers on Spotify in 2026 So Far Posted on March 22, 2026March 22, 2026 By Remy Gelenidze The 2026 Spotify streaming numbers so far are in, and hip-hop continues to dominate the charts with some staggering figures. From seasoned legends to rising stars, the list shows that fans are consuming rap at an incredible rate. Leading the pack is Drake, who has managed to pull in a massive 4.10 billion streams so far this year, proving his “certified hitmaker” status isn’t going anywhere.One of the most impressive takeaways from this list is the longevity of Eminem. He stands out as the only rapper in Top 20 who debuted in the 90s, proving his music truly spans generations. Even more surprising is that he hasn’t released a full new studio album in nearly two years—his last major drop being The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce) back in mid-2024—yet he still comfortably outpaces most of the industry’s younger stars. The middle of the pack is a mix of high-energy trap and melodic rap. Kanye West holds a strong second place with 1.89 billion streams, while Don Toliver and Kendrick Lamar are neck-and-neck for the third and fourth spots. We also see modern heavyweights like Travis Scott, Future, and Playboi Carti maintaining their grip on the culture, alongside newer viral sensations like EsDeeKid who is quickly making a name for himself among the giants.Rounding out the list, we see that the legacies of late rappers like Juice WRLD and XXXTENTACION remain incredibly powerful, with fans still streaming their catalogs by the hundreds of millions. Whether it’s the old school grit of 50 Cent or the mainstream appeal of Doja Cat and Nicki Minaj, the 2026 rap scene on Spotify is as diverse and competitive as ever.
