2Pac’s “Ambitionz Az A Ridah” is closing in on a major Spotify milestone.
The opening track from his 1996 double album “All Eyez On Me” has now passed 995 million streams on Spotify, putting it less than 5 million plays away from joining the platform’s billion-stream club.
Current tracking shows the song at more than 995.4 million streams as of September 16, 2026.
Produced by Daz Dillinger, the track became one of the defining openings in 2Pac’s catalog.
It was recorded shortly after his release from prison and set the tone for the first side of “All Eyez On Me,” which went on to become one of the biggest albums in hip-hop history.
The streaming numbers are another indication of how strongly Pac’s music continues to connect with listeners decades after his death.
“Ambitionz Az A Ridah” is currently 2Pac’s third-most-streamed song on Spotify, behind “California Love” and “Hit ’Em Up,” according to current Spotify tracking data.
At its current pace, the song is adding roughly 291,000 streams per day.
That means the remaining gap to one billion is relatively small, although the exact date it reaches the milestone will depend on daily streaming activity.
Released in 1996, “Ambitionz Az A Ridah” remains one of the most recognizable songs from 2Pac’s catalog.
Now, one of his signature tracks is approaching a number that only a select group of hip-hop records have reached.
