Drake Surpasses The Beatles For Most Billboard Top 10 Songs In Single Year

    Drake has toppled another Beatles record.

    Drizzy’s guest spot on Bad Bunny’s “Mia” became his 12th song to reach the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 in 2018. The feat helped him to pass The Beatles’ previous mark of 11 for most Top 10 hits in a single year.

    Earlier this year, Drake snapped The Beatles’ 54-year-old record for most simultaneous Top 10 songs on the Hot 100. He dethroned Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr’s longstanding achievement thanks to the massive streaming success of his double album Scorpion.

    Drake is approaching another Beatles benchmark on the Hot 100 too. The OVO Sound head honcho is now just two tracks behind the legendary group for most Top 10 songs of all time.

    The Beatles earned 34 Top 10’s during their historic run. Drake now sits at 32.

    Madonna currently holds the No. 1 spot with 38 Top 10’s over the course of her career.

      1. Why bro? Blood makes good music like why do you need to just shit on his whole catalog? Your moms pussy is trash too but I shtill fucks wit her cause she has a heart of gold and ass that dont quit. Give blood a chance bro and get like him and maybe these hoes will stop overlooking you…
        MESSAGE!!!

      2. Tha’s your opinion ! There’s a reason why rappers and singers do the music they do. They spend a lot of time on their art just as you do at work. Don’t understand why you have to insult Drake because he surpassed the Beatles.

    1. Put those same rules and technology in the Beatles time or Michael Jackson’s time period and this would never be a headline. Numbers is suspect.

      1. Hmmm…how is top 10 a suspect number. Top 10 is top 10. It’s at the top of his competitors at the time regardless of the measure, Drake would easily be the top artist of his generation. If you want to use physical sales, streams whatever, he’s going to be at the top. It’s obvious. And what are you talking about ? Michael Jackson was heralded for selling the most records with Thriller – headlines were everywhere. And yes, there were critics who would criticize this statistic like yourself saying an older measurement should be used. Likewise, they were plenty of critics of Michael Jackson and the Beatles who dismissed both of them as simply a fad in their time. Drake fits well with this history. (Watch slowly how as time goes on, Drake critics will disappear from history and be forgotten). Critics aren’t remembered at all, impact is.

    2. Straight bullshit. The Beatles had real radio play and physical sales. They would have done 100X what he did by today’s standards. All the fuckboys here jocking the Gaynadian need to come out of the closet and be listen to Milli Vanilli already. Lonely Island is realer than that jackass…

      1. What’s with all the anger towards Drake and others? Social media has changed in 54 years and so has music. We can’t tell people what kind of music to like. I music has reached more people. t doesn’t take away anything from the quality of the Beatles ‘ music. There’s a reason why Drake’s music has reached more people.

      2. In the 60s, critics also dismissed the Beatles and Beatlemania as for crazy teenybopper girls and claimed radio was unfair way to measure popularity. They also initially dismissed their music as simple pop. Their first albums were trashed by critics. Drake critics are no different. Nothing is new here.

    3. Call me gay,but Drake is definitely top 50 in hip hop history. Dudes early albums gave me a good life in the clubs and lots of college pussy. Oh,it ain’t over muthafuckas.

    4. They really need two separate categories for accolades like this. You can’t compare streaming with physical album and single sales. You’re getting the assumption as if it is an even playing field and it most certainly is not.

      1. The top is the top….in the 60s, they had Beatles haters saying “they need a separate category for radio”…He’s at the top of all of his peers in his era and has been for years with more consistency than many.

    5. This handsome man is the GOAT period. Not Eminem, not Jay-Z, not Pac, it’s Drake, whether you like it or not. Anybody that hates is a fan of that 40 year old fake drug dealer Pusha T and that snake Kanye. It’s all about the 6 God, he will never be defeated.

        1. And aside from Drake which artiste has ever done a billi a week? That’s right! even the white boy couldn’t haha

        2. When was the last time eminem didn’t flop with an album? He fell the fuck off since encore with a harder fall between mmlp2 and revival. Drake just keeps rising and rising and running hiphop/R&B.

      1. I THINK HE GOT DEFEATED BY ,,PUSHA T ,,ON THAT BEEF ,,,ONLY MY OPINION,,,
        WHETHER U DID NOT WANT TO RESPONSE OR NOT ,,,IN A BATTLE EVERYTHING GOES,,AND DRAKKYY BAG DOWN HE DID NOT RESPONSE EVEN JAY Z RESPONDED TO NAS ON ETHER,,,,BIGGIE TO 2 PAC ,,,FOR HIT EM UP,,,AND ETC,,,BEEF IS A BEEF SO YOURHAS SO CALLED G.O.A.T ,,,HAS AN L ……IN IS DUFFEL BAGGGG…..EM IS THE GOAT,,,THE WHOLE FARM IN THAT

    6. Will Hip Hop get a Best Of Both Worlds from Drake and Lil Wayne And what to Lil Wayne And Juelz Santana Best Of Both Hoodz back when Jay Z was President of Def Jam ? Song of the day is inspired by Drake Co-Signing Hall Of Fame IG Vixen Models Cocaine Lorraine , Ciera Rogers , Cat Washington , Maliah Michel , and many more these the ones playing the game right now shout’s out to Thickestonig , Dalandofmilkandhoney , BBW IG , Thick Unlimited , Thick Beauty’s, Thick Cakes , Vixen Models , and so many more .

The Song is Lost Boyz ( I’m In Love With Two Women )

    7. yeah ,,but these previous artist did it ,,with no help from the internet ,,,,drake is an internet artist,,,,those previous artists did it with b,s,and t

    8. The fact that anybody can buy streams without it being noticed makes every record ever made after streaming started counting towards sales and lists obsolete.

    9. Only The Beatles didn’t have the internet, autotune and an entire staff of songwriters to rely on. So it’s an empty boast.

    10. “Drake, like the Beatles, is an era-defining artist in a way that will likely never be duplicated quite the same way.” – Rolling Stone

      1. Push has nothing to be salty about. He hustler is so fake that when Drake went around trying to get info for $100,000, ppl were turning him away because of respect and sometimes fear (one guy cited possible gunshots coming his way of he couldn’t move his family out of Virginia). Pusha was a crossover star before Drake existed and has been able to stay relevant for almost 20 years now. Drake has more money and fame, but as a rapper he has nothing for Push. If Drake took care of his dudes properly Push wouldn’t have been able to ruin the Adidas deal. “Checks over Stripes (even though I was signed to stripes but I fucked with the wrong guy now I’m forced to rep checks).”

    11. Hip hop these days is too weak I mean this shyt is so fake lol imagine if streams was out in the 90s.. I guess everybody would be legends smh?

    12. All the records will be broken by him, and his records will also be broken. If this was 20, shit even 10 years ago, I would be rolling with this as something amazing. But now with the ability to stream the same song many times and it counts towards the sales, it’s hard for me to care. The Beatles needed people to go out and buy their stuff, repeat listens weren’t rewarded because nobody knows how often it was played. Music is free/9.99 a month now so its easier to crack the top 10. Even Cardi had 3 in there at once. Also, a lot of Drake’s are him featured on someone else’s song, something that the Beatles didn’t do. Good for him, he’s way more successful than I’ll ever be, but it means very little in today’s climate.

    13. Yeah, streams where people can listen to a song 1000 times in a row, with help of click farms, will get you records like these. This cornball is lucky to be in the internet/social media age where teenagers who don’t know shit about hip hop can call him the GOAT.
