Drake Surpasses Beatles to Earn Most Hot 100 Top 10 Songs in a Calendar Year
In the music industry, if 2018 had to remember for anything, it has to be Drake written all over it. From a charts standpoint, no one has had a better year than Drake. Setting and smashing new records almost every week, the 6 God has laid waste to 2018. This week sees him surpassing a particularly big milestone, as Billboard reports Drizzy has now garnered his 12th Top 10 song on the Billboard Hot 100 this year.
Bad Bunny’s Drake-featuring single “MIA” debuted at No. 5 on the Hot 100, which means that Aubrey’s overtaken the Beatles’ record for the most Top 10 songs in a single calendar year. It’s still possible for him to outdo that record if he keeps releasing new material in the year’s final 10 weeks, and judging from how prolific he’s been it seems likely.
