You've probably heard of a certain popular Drake TikTok song and seen all the dances to it. Well, it's officially the fastest song to get a billion views on TikTok.

In 2020, there were 176 songs that reached one billion video views on the social media platform, and Drake's had the fastest growth.

3 days how long it took "Toosie Slide" to reach one billion views

If you haven't already guessed which Drake song this is, it's "Toosie Slide," and it got a billion views on TikTok in just three days.

TikTok said in its year in review that this reflects viewers' enthusiasm for new songs by artists like him.

The second fastest song to reach this milestone, "WAP" by Cardi B & Megan Thee Stallion, took two weeks so Drake really blew the competition out of the water.

"Therefore I Am" by Billie Eilish, "Lets Link" by WhoHeem and "Say I Yi Yi" by Ying Yang Twins rounded out the top five.

The rest of the top 10 includes "Where Is The Love?" by The Black Eyed Peas, "Whole Lotta Choppas" by Sada Baby, "Adderall (Corvette Corvette)" by Popp Hunna, "Mood Swings" by Pop Smoke and "THICK" by DJ Chose & Beatking.

Recently, fellow Canadian Catherine O'Hara made waves on TikTok when she recreated her famous scene from Home Alone.
