Feb 17, 2015 Drake is the biggest thing on Spotify since… Drake. His surprise retail mixtape If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late was streamed a record-breaking 23.6 million times on the service in just its first four days, according to Spotify. The previous record for debut-week streams was set by Drake’s last album, Nothing Was The Same, which was streamed 15.6 million times in its first week in 2013. IYRTITL also broke Spotify’s single-day streaming record, with 6.8 million streams this past Saturday, Feb 14. The mixtape hit Spotify on Friday morning after spending a few hours Thursday night on iTunes (and, briefly, SoundCloud). http://www.buzzfeed.com/reggieugwu/...tered-streaming-records-on-spotify#.cwoa6Edkl #Respect
Feb 17, 2015 Good for him. I still enjoy S4TW2 more. But at the same time, I didn't really like that mixtape at first either, so this probably has to sink in for a bout a week for me.
Feb 17, 2015 How do you know they are throwaway? I thought he was preparing this for like a month or 2 now
Feb 17, 2015 Of course they are throwaway tracks, besides 6 P.M In New York and Now & Forever the rest of the songs are just tracks that didnt make it to Views From The 6, plus Jungle and the three songs from the small EP.
Feb 17, 2015 You just said " of course they are throwaway tracks" that's not really proving anything. I asked how do you know this? This mixtape sounds pretty coherent mostly and when I think throwaway compilation, I think tracks randomly thrown together.
Feb 17, 2015 Please, do you really think he is going to spent so much of his time in a surprise mixtape meanwhile he is working on the album? He did it just to get off the label and release Views From The 6 without Birdman's a--- in the middle. Not saying is a bad thing doe, he is a pretty f---ing smart guy, and the mixtape was ok.
