As he preps for a world tour in 2027, he’s also reveling in a Golden Age of his own making—after all, with VIEWS going Diamond and more platinum albums than most artists dream of, it’s safe to say the universe is shining favorably on this chart-topping icon. Who knew hitting 40 could come with such celestial perks? Let’s dive into the milestones that are making this a groundbreaking year for Drake!

Drake is having a massive 2026. He is on track for the best streaming year of his career, and his album ICEMAN continues to be one of the best-selling projects this year. He also dropped two other projects and is slated to go on a World Tour in 2027.

With Drake set to turn 40 years old on Saturday, he is reportedly celebrating the right way. While he is enjoying nights out and dinners with friends, he is also reaching some significant milestones. According to Kurrco, he is now the first artist in RIAA history to surpass 350 million certified units.

Moreover, VIEWS just went Diamond. The same can be said of his songs “Marvin’s Room” and “In My Feelings.” VIEWS is his second Diamond project next to Take Care. Meanwhile, Drake has a total of 18 Diamond songs, which is massive.

Drake Breaks Records And Turns 40

Additionally, Drake now has 14 platinum albums. This is one of those accomplishments that most artists could only dream of. It just goes to show that through all of these years, Drizzy has been exceptionally consistent.

Just a couple of years ago, it felt as though Drake might be done, once and for all. The Kendrick Lamar battle had turned him into a punchline. However, his strong 2026 has reasserted him as the biggest rapper on the planet.

It seems as though Drake is ready to keep that momentum going into next year. Whether or not more albums are on the horizon, remains to be seen.
