Drake’s Historic Hot 100 Record Has Been Matched — Again

Drake is, in many respects, the most successful artist ever when it comes to the Hot 100. The Canadian rapper has charted hundreds of songs on Billboard’s ranking of the most consumed tracks in America, and though he doesn’t claim every record, his legacy is secure.

One of Drake’s most impressive Hot 100 showings is matched this week — not by another rapper or even a pop superstar — but by the biggest name in country music to emerge in quite some time.

Morgan Wallen’s New Top 10 Hits

Morgan Wallen’s new album I’m the Problem debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with the largest opening sum of 2025. Several tracks from the project reach the Hot 100’s top 10 for the first time, with several opening in that space and others surging.

Wallen is joined by Tate McRae at No. 1 with “What I Want,” which debuts in the highest space. The brand new tune “I Got Better” opens at No. 7. At the same time, “Superman,” which was released earlier in May as a promotional cut, breaks into the loftiest tier for the first time. The track originally kicked off its time at No. 16 but now rockets to No. 8 in its second stay on the tally.

Morgan Wallen Ties Drake’s Record

As “What I Want” and “I Got Better” debut inside the top 10 and “Superman” reaches No. 8, Wallen’s I’m the Problem has now produced nine top 10 hits on the Hot 100. His full-length is just the fourth in history to score that many smashes, and Wallen is now tied with Drake at this figure.

Drake’s Certified Lover Boy also produced nine top 10 successes on the Hot 100 when it was brand new. He managed the feat in September 2021 when he occupied all but one slot inside the uppermost region on the ranking.

Only Taylor Swift has Fared Better

Only one musician has conquered the entirety of the top 10 in one fell swoop — and she’s managed to do so twice. Taylor Swift became the first artist to accomplish the incredible showing with her album Midnights, which sent its brand new cuts into the highest region. She repeated that showing and even expanded her reach to dominate the entire 14 highest spaces at one time with 2024’s The Tortured Poets Department.
