Last night, Drake and top ‘Fortnite’ player Ninja created a frenzy online after they teamed up to play the survival co-op shooting game on Twitch. An event that’s been planned for days, Drake finally took a break from the studio to indulge in about 4 hours of gaming action.
After Drake shared the link to the stream to his 36 million Twitter followers they managed to rack up 600,000 concurrent viewers - a Twitch record.

Almost, anyway. The actual record for number of streams is held by ELeague Major: Boston 2018 with 1.1 million viewers. Drake and Ninja managed to get the most viewers at one time though, which is not bad going.
Drake and Ninja were later joined by Travis Scott and NFL player JuJu Smith-Schuster. During the stream, fans also got to find out some interesting facts about the Grammy nominated rapper, including that he’s vegetarian and enjoys pineapple on pizza.
Check out highlights below.
