Drake could probably create his own Billboard chart at this point, because he has now achieved his 100th Hot 100 single. In a report from Billboard, it was announced that he will have eight entries in the upcoming chart (dated October 10), with songs mostly from his joint mixtape with Future titled What a Time to Be Alive (which debuted at the top of the charts week), pushing his 92 appearances to 100.
Drake’s reign on the charts this year alone has been unprecedented, with songs like “Hotline Bling” and his scathing Meek Mill diss “Back To Back” being stand outs. He’s surpassed James Brown (who charted 91 times), and the only competition in his way to the top spot is Elvis Presley (108), his mentor Lil Wayne (127) and the cast of “Glee” (207). With his work ethic this year, and a new album on the way, we’re sure he’ll reach that goal in no time
