Drake's new album broke day-one streaming record on Apple Music

Drake did it again: he destroyed Apple Music's record with over 170m streams on day one with his new album "Scorpion".

The previous biggest global debut on Apple Music was another Drake project – mixtape More Life, released in March last year – which was streamed 89.9m times worldwide in its opening 24 hours on the platform.

Scorpion was also streamed on Spotify approximately 132m times on June 29 – nearly 40m behind the 170m stat confirmed by Apple.

Apple says that Scorpion has now broken both worldwide and US-only day-one records on its service.
