In a truly landmark achievement, Canadian megastar Drake has become the first artist in history to spend a cumulative total of 400 weeks in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 chart. This monumental feat underscores his enduring dominance in the music industry and his remarkable consistency in producing chart-topping hits.

The latest contribution to this record comes from his recent hit single 'Nokia,' which has enjoyed multiple weeks within the coveted top 10 and was notably shortlisted by Spotify as one of the songs of summer 2025.

A Year of Record-Breaking Achievements

2025 has proven to be a prolific year for Drake in terms of shattering industry records. His Billboard Hot 100 milestone is just one of several groundbreaking accomplishments he has secured.

Earlier this year, Drake cemented his status as the artist with the most RIAA-certified Diamond records. This historic achievement came after his beloved singles 'Hold On, We’re Going Home' and 'Best I Ever Had' both surpassed an astounding 10 million sales in the United States, adding to his already impressive catalog of multi-platinum hits.

Furthermore, Drake also became the first artist in history to reach an unparalleled 500 million RIAA certification units, a testament to his unparalleled commercial success in the United States, where he holds a multitude of charting records.

Dominance Across Billboard Charts

Drake's influence extends far beyond the Hot 100. He recently set a new record for the cumulative weeks spent on the Billboard 200 album chart, surpassing the legendary record previously held by The Beatles. This highlights his consistent ability to produce albums that resonate deeply and maintain longevity with audiences.

His collaborative album with PartyNextDoor, '$ome $exy 4 U,' also propelled him to another significant milestone: his 14th No. 1 song as a soloist. This achievement places him in an elite league, as his 14th No. 1 Billboard 200 topping album now sees him tied with hip-hop icon Jay-Z and pop music megastar Taylor Swift as joint second for the most No. 1 albums. He now stands just five No. 1 albums behind The Beatles' record of 19 chart-topping albums.

Beyond albums, Drake's singles continue to make history. He currently boasts 13 No. 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100, equaling Michael Jackson's record as the male soloist with the most No. 1 songs on the prestigious chart.

Streaming King: Over a Billion Streams and Counting

Drake's influence is equally profound in the digital streaming landscape. He holds the record for the artist with the most songs on Spotify with over 1 billion streams, boasting an impressive 16 tracks that have surpassed this monumental milestone. This speaks volumes about his consistent ability to create music that resonates with a global audience and garners immense replay value.

These historic feats collectively solidify Drake's position as one of the most commercially successful and impactful artists of all time, continually pushing the boundaries of what is possible in the music industry.
