Drake has officially etched his name deeper into the history books.

The Canadian superstar has surpassed Michael Jackson for the most #1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 among solo male artists, thanks to his latest chart-topper, ‘Janice STFU.’

The track is lifted from ‘Iceman,’ which arrived as part of a three-album drop to huge streaming numbers and instantly dominated conversation online.

Full story below…

With ‘Janice STFU’ debuting at #1 on this week’s Hot 100, the 39-year-old now stands alone among male solo acts in chart history.

The feat sees him overtake Jackson, whose groundbreaking run defined Pop music across multiple generations and helped shape the modern music industry.

Drake pulled off the feat with the following first-week numbers:

*  40.7 million streams
* 2.1 million radio impressions
* 3,000 digital downloads

The song has also proven to be the breakout cut from ‘Iceman,’ leading the pack across Spotify and Apple Music since its release.

Drake has steadily chipped away at chart records over the years, previously surpassing milestones held by acts such as Jay-Z, Mariah Carey, and The Beatles in various Billboard categories.

Still, eclipsing the King of Pop’s tally is poised to ignite major debate across social media, especially given the vastly different eras the two icons dominated.

As of writing, ‘Janice STFU’ continues to perform strongly across streaming platforms following its viral rollout online.

Stay tuned for more on Drizzy’s dominance.
