Drake has equaled Michael Jackson‘s record for the most No. 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
Following the release of his new album For All the Dogs on October 6, Drizzy’s collaboration with J. Cole, “First Person Shooter,” debuted at No. 1 on the singles chart.
In doing so, Drake has matched Michael Jackson by securing 13 No. 1 singles on the Hot 100. Only The Beatles (20), Mariah Carey (19) and Rihanna (14) are ahead of them.
To celebrate, Drake took to Instagram to share an edited selfie of the late MJ wearing an OVO hoodie along with the caption: “Mooooooooood,” as well as a photo of himself wearing a sparkly, MJ-inspired glove while out at dinner.
In another post, Drake said that he believes he should’ve already beaten Jackson’s record — as he rapped about on “First Person Shooter,” coincidentally (“What the fuck, bro? I’m one away from Michael/ N-gga, beat it, n-gga, beat it”).
“Sicko Mode technically makes 14 but they didn’t count my feature so we got work to do,” he wrote, referencing his 2018 collaboration with Travis Scott.
Congrats Drake!
