Drake Dances into History with “One Dance,” Surpassing 3 Billion Streams
Drake Dances into History with “One Dance,” Surpassing 3 Billion Streams
Earlier today, Drake faced a setback as his 2011 album “Take Care” narrowly missed the diamond certification mark, but for the Toronto rap sensation, challenges are just stepping stones to greater heights. Unfazed by the hiccup, Drake has something major to celebrate—his smash hit “One Dance” has officially joined the exclusive 3 billion streams club, marking a historic milestone in his illustrious career.
In a light-hearted moment, Drake received congratulations from his OVO Sound president, humorously saved as “Man Like Morgan” in his phone. The text came in recognition of the achievement, showcasing the camaraderie within Drake’s inner circle. To share the joy, Drake tagged Wizkid, along with the song’s producers, Noah “40” Shebib and Nineteen85.
What sets this accomplishment apart is its rarity. “One Dance” becomes only the seventh song to achieve this remarkable feat, rubbing shoulders with chart-toppers like The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights” and “Starboy,” Post Malone and Swae Lee’s “Sunflower,” Ed Sheeran’s “Shape of You,” Lewis Capaldi’s “Someone You Loved,” and Harry Styles’ “As It Was.” This achievement not only cements Drake’s versatility but also highlights his ability to create timeless, catchy tunes that resonate across genres and endure through the years.
Now, we want to hear from you! Is “One Dance” your favorite non-rap track from Drake? Do you consider it his greatest hit, given this monumental milestone?

Lisa Boostani creates a mesmerizing tidal realm in “Ocean”
Lisa Boostani’s “Ocean” takes you deep into a sensory world where body, spirit, and myth come together, beyond the surface of genre. Boostani makes a soundscape that is both ethereal and deeply human by combining the broad essence of psychedelic pop with the strong appeal of alternative rock.
Her voice rises as if it is coming from deep within her, shaped by emotion rather than action. She intentionally channels the intangible, turning weakness into strength rather than a source of pain, and “Ocean” tells people to get involved in this inner world, not just watch it. This release is an integral part of her first EP, “One,” which will come out in March 2026 and is based on love, sensuality, and unity.
If “Ocean” is any indication, the EP will show sensuality not as something pretty, but as a kind of spiritual intelligence, a way to know yourself by connecting with others. The song’s textures and structure have an aquatic quality, moving between clarity and delirium, rhythm and freedom. Its emotional focus is on immersion instead of resolution.
The striking quality of “Ocean” is the blend of the mystical worlds. Boostani understands that strength often shows up as gentleness and that deep feelings are better expressed through frequencies than words. She wants people to see consciousness as immediacy, sensation as truth, and openness as an undeniable strength.

NOAH. captures the unspoken signals in enchanting R&B track “That’s Bless”
“That’s Bless” captures the unspoken late-night message, the smile that was exchanged from afar, and the feeling you sense but are afraid to say. NOAH. offers a song with a smoky R&B feel and lyrics that capture unspoken tension, firmly in the realm of emotional ambiguity, where connection is clear but not defined.
This piece concerns the subtle discomfort of mixed signals and quiet longings, when looks say more than words ever could. NOAH. handles the theme with restraint, letting the chemistry simmer rather than explode. NOAH.’s delivery shows a confident gentleness, recognizing that some feelings don’t need strict definitions to be real.
In “That’s Bless,” he captures the essence of connection and the compelling allure that endures, even when both parties pretend it is not there. The composition is based on real-life events, and it acknowledges that specific attachments endure in the heart long after one has persuaded oneself of having progressed.
“That’s Bless” is at the crossroads of closeness and distance, clarity and confusion. The song doesn’t resolve the tension it talks about, and that’s what makes it so powerful. It sums up the connection we say we don’t want but keep coming back to in memory, rhythm, and pulse.
