There are some Billboard charts where Drake<\/a> is catching up to other artists when it comes to the greatest number of hits, top 10s or even No. 1s\u2026 and then there are rankings where it seems plausible that nobody will ever be able to catch him. The Canadian hip-hop superstar is so far ahead on a handful of Billboard rosters \u2013 especially those focused on rap and hip-hop music \u2013 that it is difficult to imagine anyone coming along and giving him a run for his money.<\/p>\n Drake furthers his lead over all other stars on one radio tally this week as he scores yet another champion, one which has been waiting in the wings to rule for a little while. Impressively, his newest chart-topper is not even his only No. 1 on any Billboard roster this frame.<\/p>\n Drake Scores Another No. 1 on a Radio Chart<\/p>\n \u201cShabang\u201d<\/a> rises one space to No. 1 on the Rhythmic Airplay chart<\/a> this week. The single reaches the summit only about two months into its run on the radio roster. \u201cShabang\u201d had recently been forced to wait just underneath the peak spot as Yung Miami\u2019s \u201cSpend Dat\u201d controlled the roster for multiple periods while Drake sat at No. 2.<\/p>\n Drake Extends His Historic Lead<\/p>\n \u201cShabang\u201d becomes Drake\u2019s forty-sixth No. 1 on the Rhythmic Airplay chart as it lifts one space. The rapper sits in a distant first place on the all-time ranking, as no other artist has even collected 20 champions.<\/p>\n Rihanna claims the second-most rulers on the tally, with 17 No. 1s. The Weeknd and Chris Brown are tied for third with 16 apiece. Either man may eventually match, and perhaps pass, Rihanna\u2019s impressive total, which does not grow very frequently these days, but neither is anywhere close to approaching Drake\u2019s showing.<\/p>\n Drake\u2019s \u201cShabang\u201d Hits New Peaks on Multiple Charts<\/p>\n \u201cShabang\u201d also climbs to new high points on three additional radio-focused Billboard charts this week. The single sits on the R&B\/Hip-Hop Airplay, Mainstream R&B\/Hip-Hop Airplay and Radio Songs charts at Nos. 6, 7 and 27, respectively. Those are all new peaks for the tune on those specific rosters.<\/p>\n Drake Rules With \u201cJanice STFU\u201d Too<\/p>\n \u201cShabang\u201d is not the only hit from Iceman \u2013 one of three albums Drake released simultaneously earlier this year \u2013 to control a Billboard ranking at present.<\/p>\n
