"Nonstop" was critically well-received, being labeled one of Scorpion's best tracks by several critics, even cynics of the album. Commercially, it has reached number one in Canada as well as the top ten in Australia, Greece, Ireland, New Zealand, Portugal, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom; along with reaching top 5 in the United States, prior to being released as a single.[2] Additionally, "Nonstop" was the most streamed song in the US during the first week of Scorpion's release.[3] The song gained renewed popularity in 2020, after being used in viral TikTok videos.[4]
"Nonstop," recorded by Drake near the end of Scorpion's production,[6] is a trap rap song with the chorus line "My head is spinnin', from smokin' the chicken, the bass is kickin" sampled from DJ Squeeky and Mack Daddy Ju's song "My Head Is Spinning" (1995).[7][8] Due to the sample being by artists from Memphis, Tennessee, multiple journalists have categorized the use of the sample as a reference to Drake's Memphis influences.[8][9][10] He references LeBron James going back and forth wearing "6" and "23" shirts to symbolize his sudden rise to stardom.[11] Journalist Dee Lockett suggested the line "Yeah I'm light skinned, but I'm still a dark nigga" referenced a photo of Drake in blackface used by Pusha-T on the cover of his diss track "The Story of Adidon."[12]

Some reviewers of Scorpion, including its detractors, mentioned "Nonstop" as one of its top tracks.[13][14][15][16][17] Caitlin White Uproxx wrote its upbeat nature made it one of the best parts of a record of mostly "joyless, moody songs," describing it as "almost a banger" and noting its many "hilarious lines."[15] A top-five track list from Business Insider described it as "the sharpest possible version of his uniquely corny bravado."[18] The Ringer in 2018 ranked "Nonstop" the 105th all-time Drake song, listing it in the field of "Songs That You Would Not Quote on Your Instagram."[19] In 2020, Billboard, ranking "Nonstop" the 47th best of Drake's 209 Hot 100 hits, called it "one of the nastiest tracks the rapper's ever put out," elaborating that "it breathes an air of invincibility into you the second the bass starts rolling."[20] Some reviewers noted Tay Keith's "infectious" instrumental,[13][21][22] especially its bass line,[13][23][17] and Drake's versatility,[14][24] noting his attempt at replicating flows from contemporaneous rappers.[25][26] Patrick Lyons and Craig Jenkins, however, was critical of his tries to copy current trends, with Jenkins categorizing "Nonstop" as "a Playboi Carti song on a Klonopin"[27] and Lyons panning "his use of a young producer and somewhat lazy 21 Savage flows."[7]
When first released on Spotify as part of Scorpion, "Nonstop" was the most streamed song from the album on its first day, racking 9,298,297 streams (5,749,019 in the United States alone); it broke a record set by "Look What You Made Me Do" by Taylor Swift which garnered around eight million in a day.[28]
"Nonstop" entered the US Billboard Hot 100 chart dated July 14, 2018 at number 2,[29] tying as Drake's third number two-charting single as a lead act with "Best I Ever Had" and "Hotline Bling" which reached number two in 2009 and 2015, respectively. The song debuted and peaked at number two for one week, behind Drake's own single "Nice for What". "Nonstop" remained in the top ten of this chart for one week before dropping out on July 21, 2018.
In Drake's native Canada, "Nonstop" debuted at number 1 on the Canadian Hot 100, becoming Drake's fifth number-one single on the chart and tying as his third number one single from his Scorpion album, along with "God's Plan" and "Nice for What". It was later unseated from the top spot on the issue dated July 21, 2018 by Drake's follow-up single "In My Feelings".
The music video for "Nonstop" was released on July 27, 2018 exclusively on Apple Music before being uploaded to Drake's YouTube channel on August 3;[30] while previous videos for Scorpion tracks ("God's Plan," "Nice For What" and "I'm Upset") were directed by Karena Evans and high-concept, "Nonstop" is a much more realistic video[10] directed by Theo Skudra and filmed in London. It begins with footage from Drake's performance at the 2018 Wireless Festival before he goes out clubbing, drinks tea on top of a building, and rides throughout London on a double-decker bus. It features cameos from French Montana, Quavo, and Noah "40" Shebib.[30][31] "Nonstop" was Skudra's first Drake music video to be documentary-style, which would be true for the director's later videos for "Chicago Freestyle," "War," and "When to Say When." According to Skudra, "It kind of is the epitome of our working relationship. To be able to capture these parties or these moments, they're just things that are hard to find in a director-artist relationship."[32] Drake came up with the idea of filming the video at one of his London events, while the double-decker bus scene was done out of a joke made by a make-up artist near the end of shooting.[32] The part where Drake drinks tea on a hotel rooftop became a meme on social media upon the video's release.[33]
In 2020, the song resurfaced due to a TikTok meme challenge.[34] The challenge involves two people swapping clothes and roles with each other and then switching the light off, proceeding to "go wild"[34] once Drake raps, "Look, I just flipped the switch (flipped, flipped)."[4] One of the most popular videos are of US senator and former 2020 presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren and actress Kate McKinnon in a dressing room at Saturday Night Live.[4]
I felt and heard a lot of nostalgia in this song too, all the way back to February with that huge crush of sound-alike girl group releases. This release sounds like almost any one of those, two months late to the party. *sigh*

Maverik, who has written a handful of sports-related anthems when local teams make it to the championships (including back in 2013), says he stayed up all night after the Red Sox won the World Series writing and recording the song.
The station is hosted by British model Cara Delevingne. It functions similarly to Lips 106 from GTA III, serving as a contemporary pop mix station containing songs of various popular genres dating from the 1980s to the early 2010s. Cara presents an innocent and bubbly personality on-air, actively encouraging fun and positivity while mocking depressed and uptight people (who she calls "wankers"), asserting she knows they secretly love the music. As with most things, she doesn't seem to take her job very seriously, occasionally going on Bleeter or playing Righteous Slaughter 7 on air, though she does seem knowledgable of the music she plays, giving brief descriptions of the songs and their history. She also comments on the cynical state of society in Los Santos.
According to evidence found in the development PS3 unit that contained an early build of GTA V, the original direction of Non-Stop-Pop was oriented towards 1980s pop music, before the whole station was scrapped and the songs were added to Los Santos Rock Radio. That version of the station reused the DJ lines from Radio Broker as a placeholder.[28][29] It is possible that the following songs were included in this iteration of the station:
Nonstop was a Portuguese girl band who represented Portugal in the Eurovision Song Contest 2006 in Athens with the song Coisas de nada, which failed to advance past the semifinals as it finished in 19th place. 152ee80cbc
