Drake rules in the 2018 Top 10 countdowns, and we have the facts to prove it. So strong is the 6's popularity across the nation that Drizzy held three (count 'em, 3) of the Top 10 streamed songs in the year. He's like the Beatles in their day, but he's done it as a one-man show if one doesn't count the posse of writers scripting his hits.
