'Billboard' made the announcement earlier this week that 2018 was Drake's year. The rapper's prophetic song was enough to beat out Ed Sheeran, Bebe Rexha, Camila Cabello and Post Malone. Drake's album, 'Scorpion,' also featured the songs, "In My Feelings" and "Nice For What," which landed at numbers <br />9 and 11 on the Hot 100 chart. Drizzy is the first rapper <br />to be the overall top artist <br />of the year since 2005. The rapper is also the <br />first Canadian male to <br />be the year’s top artist. The only other Canadian to receive the honor is Alanis Morissette.
