Drake Surpasses The Beatles' Billboard Hot 100 Record!

Postby DanielsonTHAGOAT » Oct 07, '14, 7:37 am

The rapper trumped The Beatles’ Billboard Hot 100 record, thanks to his contribution to iLoveMakonnen’s “Tuesday.” The track entered in at No. 90 on the chart, marking Drizzy’s 72nd appearance. The Beatles’ record stood at 71 entries, placing Drake at the eight all-time spot as he now falls behind Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Jay Z, James Brown, Lil’ Wayne, Elvis and Glee.

Drake’s Young Money boss Lil’ Wayne is the reigning rapper on the Hot 100, racking up 122 entries on the list. Jay Z comes in second with 82. The hit TV show Glee tops the all-time record with a whopping 207 entries. It seems likely that Drake will be coming for Weezy and Hov’s spots, as he’s managed to break The Beatles’ record in a fraction of the time.

Sharing his accomplishment on Instagram, Mr. Graham kept his caption simple:

“Bigger fish to fry my G #SOUND,” he wrote.


Drake continues to keep winning. There's no stopping the young King.

Pretty cool accomplishment, until you consider that even Lil Wayne managed it.

Danielson, what's your favourite Drake song and why is it Headlines?

I'm not a fan of Rick Ross' part at all but man Drake killed it.



Another one of my favorites, it's so incredibly smooth. ^

Wait, so has he released 72 singles? Is that what that means? Or does it take into account when a song re-enters the chart?
