Spotify users beg platform to hide Drake as their top artist after Wrapped results

Spotify users express embarrassment over having Drake as their top artist in 2024 Wrapped despite mocking him.

Spotify users have been left red-faced after discovering Drake as their top artist in the platform's 2024 Wrapped, with many now begging the platform to hide him from their results.

The annual Spotify Wrapped, released on December 4, revealed that Drake was among the most-streamed artists in the US, with his name appearing in many users' top five lists. However, this has caused an unexpected wave of embarrassment among fans.

Despite heavy competition from Kendrick Lamar, who was the second most-streamed artist in the US, many Spotify users found themselves in the awkward position of having Drake as their top artist. This sparked widespread ridicule on social media, as many had spent the year criticizing the Canadian rapper.

“Who at Spotify do I need to fight to stop getting Drake as my top artist?” one frustrated user tweeted, while others joked about the situation. “I honestly think I was hacked. I am ashamed at this turn of events. Drizzy Drake over Hov is blasphemy,” one user quipped, hinting at their love for Jay-Z.

The rivalry between Drake and Lamar has been a major topic of discussion in 2024, with both artists releasing diss tracks and sparking debates over their musical prowess. Despite this, Drake managed to outperform Lamar in terms of streaming numbers. This has fueled further humor from fans who criticized Drake earlier in the year but found him at the top of their Wrapped lists.

The 2024 Wrapped controversy also highlights the ongoing feud between the two rappers. Drake has continued to make headlines with his sharp comments about Lamar, including dissing him during a stream. Meanwhile, Lamar is gearing up for his 'Grand National Tour' with SZA in 2025.

Fans are left in a comedic dilemma, balancing their dislike for Drake with the undeniable popularity of his music. As the debate continues, it seems Spotify Wrapped has inadvertently reignited the rivalry between two of the biggest names in hip-hop.
