It's safe to say that Drake has been killing it this year. The OVO head honcho recently earned his 100th entry on the Billboard Hot 100, thanks to What a Time to Be Alive.
According to the music magazine's site, eight songs featuring Drake debut on the current Billboard Hot 100 chart, which is dated Oct. 10. Each of the entries appear on his collaborative mixtape with Future, which was released Sept. 20 and opened at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. The new entries bumped Drizzy from 92 to a milestone 100 appearances. He first entered the Hot 100 back in 2009 with the No. 2-peaking "Best I Ever Had."
This week, Drake has 13 songs on the chart, including "Hotline Bling," which jumped 9-4. Billboard notes that the rapper-singer has 14 titles that have hit the top 10. Rihanna's "What's My Name?," featuring Drake, is his only entry to reach No. 1.
The Toronto rhymer is the fourth artist to achieve this milestone. The Glee cast tops the list with a whopping total of 207 entries. Drake also joins the likes of Lil Wayne, who earned 127, and Elvis Presley, with 108 entries.
In August, Drake earned another career win. It was reported that his February release, If You're Reading This It's Too Late, became the first million-selling album of 2015. The surprise release sold another 8,000 copies in the week ending Aug. 7, making it the first album released this year to sell a million copies in the U.S. IYRTITL has sold 1.007 million units since its release and debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.
IYRTITL is Drake's fourth million-selling album, following Nothing Was the Same (1.72 million), Take Care (2.26 million) and his debut, Thank Me Later (1.8 million).
Aside from making strides on the charts, Drake is apparently also preparing to drop his highly-anticipated Views From The 6 album. In the middle of his performance at Atlanta's Music Midtown Festival earlier in September, Drizzy reportedly told the crowd, "take a break from Views now it's back to that, and me and Future got a tape before that."
He first revealed the title for Views last July during an interview with Billboard. It was highly speculated that the project would be released earlier this year because of a line from "0-100 / The Catch Up."
