DONDA HITS A BILLI

In just 10 days, Kanye West's Donda (G.O.O.D./Def Jam) surpassed 1 billion global streams. West's 10th studio album holds the year's biggest debut for now, and gave Ye his 10th consecutive #1 opening, tying Eminem for the most consecutive #1 bows of all-time.

With Donda, which topped album charts in 11 countries, West returns to #1 in the UK and Australia with his biggest career streaming numbers to date and sees his first career #1 debuts in France, Italy and Sweden. Donda set an Apple Music all-time record at #1 in 152 countries.

West's album listening events for Donda also set livestream records at Apple Music leading up to the release.
