Drake breaks Twitch’s record for most-viewed, non-tournament stream while playing ‘Fortnite’

Canadian rapper Drake broke records in an unlikely place. He dropped into pro-gamer Tyler “Ninja” Blevins’s stream of the popular sandbox shooter Fortnite: Battle Royale with NFL rookie turned gamer JuJu Smith-Schuster (FaZeJuJu_19) and rapper Travis Scott (cactus_jackk92). In case you were curious, Drake’s username is TheBoyDuddus. At the peak of the stream, it hit over 635,000 concurrent viewers, which completely overtook Dr. DisRespect’s previous non-tournament stream record of 388,888. The streaming service’s all-time Twitch record goes to Eleague Major: Boston with over 1.1 concurrent viewers.
