Drake Ties The Beatles for Second Most Top 10 Singles All-Time

“Back home, smokin’ legal
I got more slaps than The Beatles” – Drake on “Going Bad”

If we are going by how a record sounds, Drake definitely has more slaps than the Beatles. If we going by the charts and numbers, he is knocking on the door. The 6 God cracked the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100 again with his feature on Chris Brown’s “No Guidance.” The chart entry now ties him for second all-time with the illustrious group.

The latest top 10 is Drake’s 34th time cracking the top bracket of the storied chart. He now only trails Madonna who has 38 top 10 singles. In other words, a new album or four more features, whichever comes first, should be enough to take over the top spot.

According to Billboard, “No Guidance” is Drake’s 12th feature to hit the top 10. Madonna and the Beatles were the lead artist on each of their efforts to hit the top 10. Drake’s speed, however, is more impressive than Madonna. All 34 of his entries have occurred in less than a decade. Madonna’s have taken 16 months. Showing the dominance of the OVO leader, “No Guidance” is his 19th consecutive top 10 debut, a record. It is also his 96th Top 40 hit and 194th entry on the chart as a whole.

Right behind Drake and The Beatles in Top 10 entries are Rihanna, Michael Jackson, and Mariah Carey. You can peep the full list at Billboard.

Charlamagne Tha God Argues That Migos are Better Than The Beatles Following Favorite Group Pop/Rock Win

Migos unexpectedly landed a win for the culture at the 2018 American Music Awards when they took home the trophy for Favorite Duo or Group Pop/Rock.

Quavo and Offset accepted the award with Takeoff noticeably missing. The award came as a complete surprise for the Quality Control artists. “We did not know we was winning this at all,” Quavo told the crowd. “We thank God, Mama, I love you. QC the label. We ain’t even got no speech together, but it’s all good. Hey, Takeoff, yes sir, we brought it home, you thought wrong. I want to say thank you to all my fans, all our fans, for making us No. 1, for making us the No. 1 group in the world.”

The win was one for the culture because we all know that Hip Hop is the No. 1 genre in the world. Additionally, Rock was heavily influenced by Black people.

The Breakfast Club’s host, Charlamagne Tha God, took to Twitter to argue the Migos are better than The Beatles.

Charlamagne elaborated on his stance on The Breakfast Club, though he technically switched his verbiage from “better” to “bigger.” “Does John Lennon have a solo album?” asks Tha God, prompting Angela Yee to respond with “…yes.” “Quavo is bigger than John Lennon,” says Tha God, doubling down. “You don’t need a Yoko Ono when you got Saweetie.”
