  "God's Plan" is also the second song to ever reach over 100 million-streams in a week, following Baauer's 2013 viral hit "Harlem Shake." Drake's song logged 101.7 million U.S. streams in one week.

• Has this song received any accolades?

  As of 27 November 2018, "God's Plan" earned Drake his first certified-Diamond track by the RIAA.

  "God's Plan" was awarded with the GRAMMY for Best Rap Song at the 2019 GRAMMY Awards.

• Does Drake refers himself as God in the song?

  While it's possible "God's Plan" refers to himself and his own plan, it's likely he is in fact talking about the deity he believes in, given the line "I can't do this on my own" in the second chorus.

  However, Drake definitely refers to himself as a potential God – musically and/or culturally – in both choruses: "Might go down a(s) G.O.D." Also, one of his most notable nicknames is "6 God".

• Is Drake saying "my bed" or "Mahbed" at the beginning of the second verse?

  In the days following Scorpion's release, a rumor was started via Twitter that Drake's son's full name is Adonis Mahbed Graham, and that Drake is actually rapping "I only love Mahbed and my mama, I'm sorry." However, there is no credible evidence that Mahbed is actually the child's middle name.

  In early June 2018, TMZ reported that Drake and his child shared the same initials, ADG. Seeing that they were correct about Drake meeting with his son on Christmas, it should be assumed that their information regarding Adonis comes from a credible source.

  Additionally, two of Drake's Instagram posts all but confirm that the lyric is "my bed" and not "Mahbed."

• Why is Drake called the 6 God?

  "6 God" has been one of Drake's nicknames since Drake released the song of the same name in late 2014. It later appeared on his 2015 mixtape If You're Reading This It's Too Late. "The 6" is a nickname for his home city: Toronto.

• What have the artists said about the song?

  According to Songfacts, producer Boi-1da explained to Billboard magazine:

  It was a half-finished record that Drake had. He came to me and needed me to put a bounce to it to rock a certain way. So I ended up adding some drums to the record. It came out well. I vibed with it and did what needed to be done. It came out as an amazing record.

  Drake also told RapRadar:

  It was recorded on a whim in my condo and I thought nothing of it.
  We had to rush and turn around because I was worried that another artist was gonna get the version and just start laying random verses on it. We were rushing, rushing, rushing to try to turn it around in the next two days. I was just like, 'Yo, I have to do a second verse. It has to be hard.'
  I never could've told you a week before that "God's Plan" was my single and it was gonna be the biggest song of my career. I never would've known that. My hand just got forced. I do feel as though I can put in the maximum amount of effort, I can use all my heart and my soul in my writing. But at the end of the day, I am being guided by some other power. I don't know what it is, but somebody likes me somewhere. And that's just the facts. A lot of this is organic, it's not that calculated.
