Kendrick Lamar Dominates Charts: First Rapper to Achieve 100 Million Spotify Listeners and Three Simultaneous Top 10 Albums

Kendrick Lamar continues to redefine success in the music industry, achieving unprecedented milestones. He has become the first rapper in Spotify history to reach 100 million monthly listeners, currently boasting 100,052,025 listeners. This places him among an elite group of only nine artists to ever surpass this mark, including Bruno Mars, The Weeknd, and Taylor Swift.Adding to his accolades, Lamar has also made history on the Billboard 200 chart. He is the first rapper to simultaneously hold three albums in the top 10: GNX at No. 1, Damn at No. 9, and Good Kid, M.A.A.D City at No. 10. This achievement coincides with SZA's SOS holding the No. 2 spot, marking the first time two Super Bowl Halftime Show performers have claimed the top two positions following the game.The resurgence of Lamar's album, GNX, is partly attributed to its physical release on February 7, sparking significant sales. His recent Super Bowl Halftime Show performance, which also featured SZA, further fueled his chart success. The tour will take the two performers throughout the US and Canada until July, when the tour will continue in Europe. The Grand National Tour is set to wrap up on August 9 in Stockholm, Sweden.
