- Complex Music (@ComplexMusic) April 13, 2020He thus became the first male artist to have achieved this feat and equaled an absolute legend of North American music: a certain Mariah Carey, who had been sitting alone until now, and this since 1997. It is also the seventh number 1 of Drake in this ranking, after What's My Name , Work , One Dance , God's Plan , Nice for What and In My Feelings .
More work
Drake may chain the records, he still has a number to beat, like the one held, again, by Mariah Carey: the record for the number of weeks accumulated at the top of the charts. The Hero performer, with 19 singles in the Hot 100 and 200 million records sold worldwide, spent 82 weeks in first place, against 50 for Drake.
