He had three albums&#8217; worth of material for fans to consume, as he dropped a trio of full-lengths \u2013 Iceman, Habibti and Maid of Honour \u2013 at the same time. As is typically the case whenever a musician fills the majority of spaces on any genre-focused tallies, many of Drake&#8217;s tunes have started to descend. He is still the king of many lists, but most of his lofty debuts are on the decline \u2013 except one. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Shabang&#8221; is proving to be a fan favorite from this latest chapter in Drake&#8217;s career. In its second week on the charts, the cut bucks the trend and manages to climb to new peaks on multiple tallies. &#8220;Shabang&#8221; almost hits No. 1 on a handful of rosters, but Drake keeps himself from earning another leader.<\/p>\n<p>Drake\u2019s &#8220;Shabang&#8221; Rises to No. 2<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=MoR47PedfaU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=MoR47PedfaU\" aria-label=\"&quot;Shabang&quot;\">&#8220;Shabang&#8221;<\/a> appears on nine Billboard charts this week, and it climbs on five of them, reaching a new high point on each and every one as it surges. The tune now sits at No. 2 on the <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/charts\/r-b-hip-hop-songs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/charts\/r-b-hip-hop-songs\/\" aria-label=\"Hot R&amp;B\/Hip-Hop Songs\">Hot R&amp;B\/Hip-Hop Songs<\/a>, <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/charts\/rap-song\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/charts\/rap-song\/\" aria-label=\"Hot Rap Songs\">Hot Rap Songs<\/a>, R&amp;B\/Hip-Hop Streaming Songs and Rap Streaming Songs tallies, and at No. 3 on the Streaming Songs rundown. &#8220;Shabang&#8221; debuted at No. 4 last frame on all of them, and if it weren&#8217;t for another single by the same powerhouse, the song would become a ruler on each and every one of those listings.<\/p>\n<p>Drake Blocks Himself from No. 1 With &#8220;Janice STFU&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Drake&#8217;s own &#8220;Janice STFU&#8221; keeps &#8220;Shabang&#8221; from adding to his list of rulers. That Iceman single launched at No. 1 on a variety of Billboard charts a few days ago, and it is comfortable on the throne. &#8220;Janice STFU&#8221; is present on an incredible 15 rankings, and it&#8217;s steady at No. 1 on seven of them. That roundup includes the Billboard Hot 100 and Billboard Global 200, as well as the aforementioned hip-hop and rap rosters.<\/p>\n<p>Drake Already Claims Dozens of Leaders<\/p>\n<p>While Drake does not score another No. 1 on any of the four tallies where &#8220;Shabang&#8221; sits at No. 2, he has already racked up dozens of leaders. Drake claims the fewest No. 1s on the Rap Streaming Songs chart, where he&#8217;s up to 24 ruling hits. He&#8217;s earned 29 on the R&amp;B\/Hip-Hop Streaming Songs list, and 32 leaders on both the Hot R&amp;B\/Hip-Hop Songs and the slightly more specific Hot Rap Songs rundowns.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Shabang&#8221; Replaces &#8220;Ran to Atlanta&#8221; at No. 2<\/p>\n<p>Drake does not replace himself at No. 1 on any of the charts where &#8220;Shabang&#8221; currently resides in second place, but he does swap one No. 2 smash for another. Only days ago, &#8220;Ran to Atlanta,&#8221; a collaboration with both Molly Santana and Future, missed out on ruling as it came in behind <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=SD4yRDY9mek\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=SD4yRDY9mek\" aria-label=\"&quot;Janice STFU.&quot;\">&#8220;Janice STFU.&#8221;<\/a> This time around, &#8220;Ran to Atlanta&#8221; slips to third place, making way for &#8220;Shabang&#8221; to climb.<\/p>\n<p>Drake Owns the Top 10 on Several Billboard Charts<\/p>\n<p>Drake dominates the entire top 10 on two of the four charts where &#8220;Shabang&#8221; nearly runs the show. He does not allow another artist to appear within that region on both the Hot Rap Songs and Rap Streaming Songs tallies, though he doesn&#8217;t quite manage that showing on the more all-encompassing lists. <\/p>\n<p>Drake fills 70% of the slots within the top 10 on the Hot R&amp;B\/Hip-Hop Songs chart. On the R&amp;B\/Hip-Hop Streaming Songs register, only one single not credited to Drake \u2013 Michael Jackson&#8217;s &#8220;Billie Jean&#8221; \u2013 ruins his winning streak. Last week, &#8220;Billie Jean&#8221; fell to No. 21, and now the former chart-topper is back at No. 7.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"embed-base color-body color-body-border link-embed embed-0\" href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/hughmcintyre\/2026\/06\/05\/drake-manages-a-first-on-one-of-billboards-toughest-charts\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Drake Manages A First On One Of Billboard\u2019s Toughest Charts\" data-ga-track=\"forbesEmbedly:https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/hughmcintyre\/2026\/06\/05\/drake-manages-a-first-on-one-of-billboards-toughest-charts\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">ForbesDrake Manages A First On One Of Billboard\u2019s Toughest ChartsBy Hugh McIntyre<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Drake&#8217;s &#8220;Janice STFU&#8221; holds at No. 1 on several of Billboard&#8217;s rap and hip-hop charts, blocking the rising&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":628657,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[6491,222,212986,212988,212987,212980,212984,212981,212985,212982,212983,96,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-628656","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-celebrities","tag-drake","tag-drake-number-one","tag-drake-number-one-charts","tag-drake-number-one-songs","tag-drake-shabang","tag-drake-shabang-billboard","tag-drake-shabang-charts","tag-drake-shabang-number-one","tag-drake-shabang-sales","tag-drake-shabang-streams","tag-entertainment","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/628656","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=628656"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/628656\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/628657"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=628656"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=628656"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=628656"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
