Kendrick Lamar’s album “Damn” has officially surpassed 10 billion streams on Spotify, making it a significant milestone in his career.
This achievement marks the first time one of Kendrick’s albums has reached this massive number, placing “Damn” among an elite group of Hip-Hop records that have achieved similar feats.
Other albums in this category include Juice WRLD’s “Goodbye & Good Riddance”, Travis Scott’s “Astroworld”, Drake’s “Views” and “Scorpion”, XXXTENTACION’s “?”, and Post Malone’s “beerbongs & bentleys” as well as “Hollywood’s Bleeding.”
Released in April 2017, “Damn” earned widespread critical acclaim and commercial success. The album not only secured a Grammy Award for “Best Rap Album” but also became the first non-classical or jazz album to win the prestigious Pulitzer Prize for Music.
