Spotify has released its most streamed songs of the summer on Monday, and it’s probably not hard to guess which artist came out on top. We’ll give you a hint, though: “Kiki, do you love me?”

That ubiquitous phrase propelled Drake’s “In My Feelings” to the top of Spotify’s global rankings, with 393 million streams between the beginning of June and the end of August.

Cardi B, 2018’s breakout hip-hop artist, was in the next two spots, with her feature on Maroon 5’s “Girls Like You” barely edging her “I Like It” single from her debut album. Combined, the two songs racked up more than 580 million streams this summer.

Rapper Juice WRLD’s “Lucid Dreams” came in fourth, and was dubbed the “breakout star of the summer” by Carl Chery, Spotify’s head of urban music, in a blog post. XXXTentacion, who was killed in June, grabbed the fifth spot with “Sad!”

In addition to having the biggest hit of the summer, Drake had an additional four songs in the top 20, including “God’s Plan” and “Nice For What.”
