In 2015, he became just the fourth artist in history to earn 100 career Hot 100 entries. He joined the 200-hit club in 2019, then became the first (and still only) artist to reach 300 entries in 2023. In 2026, he extended that record even further, becoming the only artist ever to amass 400 career Hot 100 entries.<\/p>\n
Among Drake\u2019s many other Hot 100 achievements are the records for the most top two, top three, top five, top 10, top 20 and top 40 hits, along with the most No. 1 debuts in the chart\u2019s history.<\/p>\n
He also holds the record for the most No. 1 Hot 100 hits among solo male artists, with 14. Among all artists, he\u2019s tied with Rihanna and Taylor Swift for the third-most No. 1s overall, after only the Beatles (20) and Mariah Carey (19).<\/p>\n
As Drake continues adding to his resume, here\u2019s a look at every major Hot 100 record the superstar has broken throughout his career \u2014 and the milestones he hasn\u2019t reached (yet) \u2014 through the chart dated May 30, 2026.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s also worth noting that the rise of streaming has drastically reshaped how artists accumulate Hot 100 records. In recent years, blockbuster album releases have allowed acts to chart multiple songs simultaneously, a stark contrast to earlier eras when artists typically promoted one radio single at a time in a largely physical-sales-driven marketplace. That shift in consumption helps explain why modern artists have been able to rapidly increase their career totals for Hot 100 entries and other chart milestones.<\/p>\n
