As Drake’s ICEMAN debuts atop the Billboard 200 albums chart (dated May 30), it not only scores the biggest streaming week for any album in 2026, but also one of the top 10 largest streaming weeks ever.

ICEMAN arrives with 462.2 million on-demand official audio and video streams of the album’s 18 tracks in the United States in the tracking week ending May 21, according to Luminate. The figure adds the streaming totals of the 18 tracks on the album during the tracking week.

The sum places ICEMAN at No. 10 on the list of the biggest streaming weeks for albums, where half of the top 10 are held by Drake releases. All of the top 10 weeks are debut weeks.

Further, Drake now has the top five largest streaming weeks ever among R&B/hip-hop albums, with ICEMAN’s start coming in fifth.

ICEMAN marks Drake’s 15th No. 1 on the Billboard 200, tying him with Taylor Swift for the most No. 1s among soloists. Drake also surpasses Jay-Z for the most No. 1s among solo men and R&B/hip-hop acts. Only The Beatles have more No. 1s than Drake and Swift, with 19 leaders. Jay-Z follows Drake and Swift with 14 No. 1s.
