The Hot 100 includes all-genre U.S. streams, radio airplay, and sales data. The Canadian native secured the top five spots with ‘Way 2 Sexy‘ featuring Future and Young Thug, at No. 1. and following is ‘Girls Want Girls, Fair Trade, Champagne Poetry, and Knife Talk. 

Drake now joins the ranks with music legends, The Beatles, who also had five songs in the Top 100 in 1964, a record no other artist had reached since then.

However, holding their ground against the Six-god obliterating the charts, is Justin Bieber and The Kid LAROI in the sixth spot with their single Stay, but Drake has claimed every other spot.

‘Way 2 Sexy’ recently made headlines following the release of its video due to fans believing he was taunting Kanye with a Kim Kardashian look-a-like.

The song still managed to debute at No. 1, also giving rapper Future a number one song.

The pair almost reached this accomplishment with ‘Life Is Good’ but it eventually fell off without reaching the covent position. Now, after 125 entries, the Atlanta rapper’s wait is finally over.

In addition to topping the top 10 charts, all of Drake’s songs from ‘Certified Lover Boy’ are charting within the top 40 songs.
