Drake is no stranger to trophies and record-breaking achievements.
On May 26, the rapper celebrated a major milestone, surpassing Michael Jackson for the most #1 hits among male solo artists. This achievement came as his latest track, “Janice STFU,” debuted at the top of the charts.
“Neck broke from carrying the chain Back broke from carrying the game Records broken carry on my name Carry on carry on,” Drizzy captioned the IG post — which could double as lyrics — featuring an illustrated photo of Michael Jackson with “Iceman” blue braids in front of a snowy landscape.
The project’s standout track, “Janice STFU”, earned Drake his 14th #1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100, officially surpassing Michael Jackson and securing his spot as one of the chart’s most dominant artists.
While this milestone is groundbreaking, The Beatles still hold the all-time record, including group acts, with an impressive 20 #1 hits.
The past tracking week was monumental for Drake, propelled by the release of his trio of albums — “Iceman”, “Habibti”, and “Maid of Honour”. This powerhouse release generated remarkable numbers, earning him a staggering 42 entries on the current Billboard Hot 100.
With this achievement, he shatters Morgan Wallen’s previous record of 37 entries in a single week, set in May of last year. Drake’s three new albums further boost his lifetime total to over 400 entries on the Hot 100, cementing his legacy in music history.
Released on May 15, “Iceman”, “Habibti”, and “Maid of Honour” made an unprecedented debut by claiming the top three spots on the Billboard 200 chart simultaneously — a historic first for any artist.
