Drake has beaten Madonna’s record for the highest number of Top 10 hits in US chart history. The Canadian rapper has two tracks in this week’s chart in collaboration with DJ Khaled, Popstar at No 3 and Greece at No 8, bringing his total Top 10 hits to 40 and beating Madonna’s record of 38. In March, he also broke the record for the most hits in the US Hot 100, at 208. That tally has now reached 224, aided by his most recent full-length release, Dark Lane Demo Tapes, which came out in May. Every track from it placed on the Hot 100, including Toosie Slide at No 1. Drake’s chart run began in 2009 when Best I Ever Had reached No 2. His 40 Top 10 hits include 15 tracks where he is a featured artist on songs by Rihanna, Future, Travis Scott and more. Madonna’s run began with Lucky Star, which reached No 4 in 1983, and her most recent Top 10 hit was 2012’s Give Me All Your Luvin, featuring Nicki Minaj and MIA. Except for a No 84 placing for Bitch I’m Madonna in 2015, singles from her last two albums have failed to chart in the US, but the albums themselves have performed well – Rebel Heart reached No 2 in 2015 and the critically acclaimed Madame X topped the album chart in 2019.
