With summer wrapping up and school officially back in session, the season was definitely lit with some music comebacks and takeovers!
Spotify just released their top Songs of Summer playlist and to no surprise the King of Billboard charts, Drake, and our favorite break out Queen Cardi B have taken the top slots.
Drake ruled the Billboard Hot 100 for seven straight weeks with his ‘Scorpion’ album and his viral “In My Feelings” Challenge. The track was streamed more than 393 million times between June 1 and Aug 20th.
