Drake’s run on the charts can’t be stopped. On Monday (March 15), Billboard revealed the 6 God is holding the top three slots on the current Billboard Hot 100 simultaneously thanks to Scary Hours 2‘s trio of tracks.
The Supah Mario-produced “What’s Next” debuts at the top for Drake’s eighth No. 1 hit with the Lil Baby-assisted “Wants and Needs” coming in at No. 2 and the latest Rick Ross-Drake link-up on the six-minute “Lemon Pepper Freestyle” earning the third spot on the Hot 100.
Drake is the first to ever debut a trio of tracks in the Top 3 while becoming the third artist to ever achieve the feat. The Beatles in 1964 and pop star Ariana Grande in 2019 previously ruled the Top 3 on the Hot 100 at one time, meaning Drake is occupying rare real estate.
The “God’s Plan” rapper adds to his own career record with 45 Top 10s and 119 Top 40s on the Hot 100. “What’s Next” snatched the No. 1 spot from Olivia Rodrigo’s “Drivers License,” who departs from the summit after eight weeks. Drake also boxed out the tuneful Silk Sonic (comprised of Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak) from entering the Top 3 with their debut single.
Facebook Music Video Streams To Influence Billboard Charts Going Forward
With the positive reception from fans to the appetizing Scary Hours 2, it’s all eyes on the release of Certified Lover Boy, which Drake allegedly promised to deliver before April expires.
Stream the EP below.
Drizzy a GOAT. Your favorite could never do this.
probably not but my favourite’s worst song in their catalog would still be better than those 3 shit songs.
LOL. My favorite couldn’t buy streams and pay people to write his shit?
Most sales doesnt equal most talent. Ariana Grande did this lol Plus eminem still has sold way more albums than he ever will. K thx.
Good to know your favorites are Ariana Grande and Eminem. Lol.
Em is 1000 times better than Frake, you bubblegum bitch. You probably fuck with BTK as well. Ho ass loser.
Not surprising … the amount of people that listen and purchase music in 2021 is 4x that when the Beatles dropped … the numbers can be attributed the ease of access to media alone
You have that backwards. Instead of actually have to sell albums people stream everything unlimited. It’s 5X easier to chart nowadays these numbers are meaningless.
Too true ese
Please. This bubblegum Cosplay wannabe American bitch will never be the weakest Beatle. Stop believing the hype dummy. In this case, the stream manipulation. He has more downloads than the Beatles and equivalent sales, yet less money than 5 other rappers? Strange.
I had a friend who hated Drake so badly, I made a Drake Playlist for him and now all he bumps in his Velar is Drake. Bro if you’re hating its cuz you just want to, and not cuz Drake is wack. We all know he’s your favorite’s favorite. Real recognize real. At some point Jackson was hated too
It’s human nature, it’s easier to hate. We all can’t be losers cuz we listen to Drake?The guy is good, just accept it
Very true, we all know the Drake haters play his music secretly.
Stop responding to your own posts. We get it, it’s cold in Canda and you don’t have friends.
who cares about billboard anymore? if you’re music compels someone to go out and physically buy a copy thats one thing, but someone using their fat finger to click the pixels showing your song name on spotify is another, entirely different thing. Everyone knows these numbers are manipulated these days its all fake
“Who cares about Billboard anymore” says the frustrated Drake hater.
„Drake is the first to ever debut a trio of tracks in the top three while becoming the third artist to ever achieve the feat.„ WHAT?
What was confusing about it? Makes sense to me.
Debut a trio of tracks, not have 3 of their tracks for top 3…makes complete sense
Streams and Billboards are just tarnished BS numbers. I am a fan of Drake and this feat doesn’t mean a god dam thing. I miss when album sales were true album sales. Physical copies and not this payola payoff scenario that keeps happening. I wouldn’t accuse Drake of that, he is just part of the inflated numbers because he is still current
Drake is definitely doing payola. He’s been accused many times of it.
Drake no doubt is the king of streams in the modern age but these comparisons are meaningless. A stream today is basically the equivelant of a single play on the turntable in the 1960s. If you added up the amount of rotations basically ANY Beatles release got back in the day apon release in the same way PLUS the sales and radio numbers… this new history of ‘records’ would look EXTREMELY different. Not to mention the world population now dwarfs what it was 50-60 years ago.
So true
“occupying rare real estate”. interesting choice of words.
So is Drake renting?? Lol
Jus stop
Drake has one of the most annoying voices in the game. How people can stand it, no idea.
blows my mind. Dude is the defintion of an actor playing a rapper. this dude got more ppl writing and telling him what to act out. He a good actor
We can relate to what he talks about. Unlike raps about guns and killings and that underground bull. He talks about having a good time, managing relationships and stress. We like that
when i hear #1 streamed online , i think ohh shit he got the machines and bots working overtime. its proven fact they run the numbers up on purpose.
