Boston rapper and producer Clark D is celebrating a major milestone His track “Lifesaver” has officially hit one million streams.
“Lifesaver” marks Clark D’s first-ever song to reach seven digits, and he’s using the moment to reflect on both where he came from and where the music is going. The track was created as a tribute to Boston legend Eddy Guru and, according to Clark, was his way of clearly stating his purpose in music: making work that has real impact.
While “Lifesaver” carries strong Boston roots, its reach has gone far beyond the city. Sydney, Australia currently holds the top spot for most streams by city, a surprise to the artist, who noted he doesn’t know anyone in the region. Berlin ranks No. 6, and the track has even charted on iTunes in Sweden. The growing international audience marks a new chapter for the independent artist, whose music is clearly resonating across borders.
Clark shared the news of the milestone on social media over the weekend, expressing gratitude to both longtime supporters and new listeners discovering his work for the first time. The song, created entirely at home, took just under 18 months to cross the 1 million stream mark, according to the artist.
He also took a moment to offer encouragement to fellow artists, noting that focusing on what matters personally can sometimes be the clearest path forward.
As momentum around “Lifesaver” continues to grow, Clark D is keeping things moving. Tickets are still available for his One Night Only: Atlanta performance.
