Once the mattresses are gone, anyone who arrives in Drake-Slap-the-City-style will be given “exclusive, heavy discounts while supplies last,” the company said.
Spotify announced that on May 15, Drake became the streaming platform’s most-streamed artist of 2026 in a single day and his album became the most-streamed of 2026 in a single day.
