Drake and Yeat are on top of the Billboard Streaming Songs chart.

Drake's collaboration with Yeat, "IDGAF," has topped Billboard's Streaming Songs chart, marking the first time a song has done so in its first week being down in streams overall. The track was streamed 26 million times in the United States between the dates of Oct. 13-19. While it's the 20th time that Drake has reached the top of the chart, it's Yeat's debut at No. 1. Yeat made it on the chart once before with “Talk,” which debuted and peaked at No. 17 in September 2022. Billboard created the chart in 2013.

Drake has dominated it in the decade since its inception. Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber both sit in a tie for the second most number ones with just six each. Travis Scott ranks fourth with five number ones while Ariana Grande, Cardi B, Lil Baby, and Miley Cyrus have all done so four times.
