Despite being galaxies away from their Billboard 200 stats, Rihanna continues to wreck the Hot 100 records of many-a-legend. Already leaving records set by Madonna, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Aretha Franklin, and Janet Jackson in her rearview (as recently as last week), the diva – who has already “technically” surpassed Michael Jackson‘s #1s streak on the singles chart – now shares his top 10 record.
Thanks to ‘Needed Me,’ the latest gem lifted from her latest opus, ‘Anti,’ Ri – at just 28 years old – can now boast an amassment of top 10s that puts her in 3rd place on the “all time” list.
That’s right. There are only 2 other artists in history who have scored more top 10s on the Hot 100 than her. Get the details below:
(Courtesy: Billboard)
The chart above was published the week ‘Work,’ the official lead single from her 8th album ‘Anti,’ reached its first rung on the top 10 ladder. It later went on to an impressive 9 week run at #1, giving the songstress her 14th chart-topper.
Just last week we reported the diva, thanks to the Calvin Harris-led hit ‘This Is What You Came For,’ nabbed her 28th career top 10. Now, with this week’s ascension of ‘Needed Me,’ Rihanna has 29 top 10 hits.
Congratz!
Billboard Hot 100 This Week

@rihnavy
Did I win or did I win ?
Bissssh please you take more L’s than Snoop and Wiz combined. Bow out gracefully.
Lol that’s funny seeing as how Meek Mill and Azealia Banks passed all of their L’s on to you!
Call me Skai Jackson b****
B**** you tried it, go tend to futures baby momma I heard she took an L from the court
Yawn her’s will never be as impressive as MJ’s Stevie’s or Madonna! They did it solely on their own and didn’t need to cling to 917262718 features LOL!!!
Well the thing is Beyonce has released 5 albums and has had many a feature yet she just isnt on the list, POOR DAT.
In any case BEYAWNCE released sugar water some three weeks ago and the limes have already gone bad, WHERE IS THE INTEREST. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE HYPE?
I Just Dont See It. Her single are plumetting down the charts and its like releseaing all the songs and singles already what will happen now for the promotion of the album? NOTHING, what a facking FAD.
Lemonade Here Today Gone tomorrow BLOOP
Why are you hating so hard lemonade?
There are plenty of other refreshing fruit drinks out there that you can enjoy…
Lmfao!!! The reach!! Throughout Beyoncé entire music career (DC included) she’s had less features than Rihanna. Out of those features few of them have been released as singles kiii!!
.
I can’t at you basic bum frothing at the mouth bitxhes claiming Lemonade is done. The era has just started and sold more copies than Cheatanna! Became the highest streaming album in a week for a Female artists! The first female artists to have 100 million streams in a week lemonade is place at #2 and #5 for top streamed album’s in a week. Meanwhile the so called strea, queen is MIA from those list hahaha!!! Oh and thats just through Tidal! While Beyonce has been irrelevant from that #1 spot on BB100 for 8 years her music still pushes albums better than fRih and for damn sure a TOUR KIII
Lemomade 800k —–> Anti 400k
Formation Tour $20m 4 dates—-> AntiTour $13m 12 dates
????????????????????????????
Rihanna is just someone that sings other people (writers) n1. Rihanna is untalented lucky girl that was at the rightplace when JZ did show up. Rihanna cannt write her own songs, she can’t sing, she cannt dance, she doesn’t play 1 instrument. And i hate her singing voice, it’s the same sound that dying cats makes. Rihanna success in de music business isn’t her success but the success of the writers, Rihanna is just the face of/for their success and nothing more.
In all honesty streaming is the act of the devil for me. All the legendary artists on this list had to literally put in WORK to achieve theses feat and now it’s easy hand out certifications. Like s*** if this was the case back then MJ, Whitney, Prince, Janet, Madonna ect would’ve had hell of other #1 hits.
Streaming needs to be banned, that we we really see whose getting supported by physical sells. This system s*** is cheating, that’s why the industry in the predicament it’s in now continuing to do unfairly and bias s*** to the music.
Girl by welcome to the new age, are we not supposed to advance with technology, who got time to go out and buy physical copies when I can buy it in my phone, stop hating anyways congrats Rihanna girl keep killing these h***.
Congratulations, Queen.
.
“Needed Me” is rising on all metrics, and is currently the third most streamed song in the U.S behind “One Dance” and “Panda”, so I see it rising over the next few weeks. Nonetheless…

#JusticeForKissItBetter. 😉
Slayanna, can’t wait for Billboard Music Awards
Can’t wait for you to try holding your breath for more than 10 minutes ?
Rhianna still can’t touch Michael Jackson’s success….lmaooo
I’m sure Rihanna isn’t competeing with Micahal, he broke so many boundaries for black artist during the MTV White era. He paved the way for Rihanna and her contemporary, matching his chart success is no way matching his impact. RIhanna is still doing the damn thing never the less. Stay pressed
Read!!
Rihanna’s catalog doesn’t even compare to Janet’s let lone Michael’s. It’s just the sign of the times we’re living in where awards and no# 1s don’t mean much. Taylor Swift and Alicia Screams has more Grammies than Michael, Whitney and Stevie that sh*t says it all!!!!
Work, work, work, work, work, work!
Yes, Rihanna is the millennium artist. Young, versatile, fresh and came in at the time when music is shifting to more digital platforms. Her fans are younger engaging and pushing this new generation of music consumption. Many said Madonna wouldn’t be great, or Elvis Presley back in his day, but generations later they are highly revered and down in the history books. Some of you may not see it now for Rihanna, but history is being made and she will go down as an Icon. She said she wanted to be the black Madonna, and I think she’s done it. Rihanna has arrived! You naysayers are irrelevant. Because even without your blessings she still winning.
Imagine if streaming existed back in MJ’s day.
Anyways, congratulations
Streaming exists TODAY and beyawnce is still tumbling down the Hot100,
What is her excuse?
Album SELLER? see Taylor Swift, Adele and the like.
Lemonade>Anti
Views>Anti
25>Anti
1989>Anti
The Pink Print>Anti
Art Pop>Anti
Anti>Jackie
Okay, i’m aware that you know how to use a greater than sign, GOOD FOR YOU.
When you bring anything other than yYOUR OPINION maybe we could talk hunty, because as of now numbers don’t lie and we have receipts all you have are excuses. MISS ME, just as your fave keeps MISSING that #1 spot
Times you’ve been asked for you opinion : 0
Times you’ve offered it anyways : 24577900
OOPS someone is seemingly salty. 🙂
Why would I be salty about u typing through a metro pcs phone ?
When was Beyawnce’s last #1 single on the Hot 100? Oh Single Ladies back in 2008! 8 years ago!!!
I don’t think fossil has the answer, The apex of the Hot100 is ever so elusive to some.
Name is up there with legends. Phuck a Beyonce, Rihanna is is taking crowns form the greats.
Shut the f*** up twink!
When was the last time Ciara had a top 10? #7YearsAgo
When’s the last time you got tested bottom?
Running from my questions like always. I’m surprised you’re back from the dead after this post.

@Mark but aren’t you running from hers? Where’s your test results sis? Or let’s talk about your OTHER AVI earlier today or Stephon exposing you in our DM’s?
Aaliyah would have never made it past 2003 if she was alive ?? you shouldn’t been talking
I want her to snatch Mariah’s record for most hot 100 #1s
Soon.
I’m for She beating The Roaches record. And you know it’s a matter of time before she sells more records than Madonna.
If you’re including her SINGLES to her total album sales, then you truly are more of a sociopathic lying bottom than I though. She will NEVER surpass Madonna
And I want you to snatch a bottle of bleach and chug for dear life
People are so silly. Streaming today is the equivalent of physical sales in MJ those days. More than half of music buyers consume their music from steaming (they pay money to streaming services). So please tell me why wouldn’t billboard include steaming. Think about how inaccurate the numbers would be if they didn’t use streaming. Only old people buy physical copies…today’s world stream. And let’s me frank…Rihanna was killing it even before streaming became popular. So let’s not get besides out selves
The HIVE loves a good excuse. Like Rihanna isn’t the only artist available for streaming. Beyonce’s music is, yet no one streaming that s***.
ALL i see is a bunch of bitter pressed b****** crying over the success of the DIGITAL QUEEN. Keep up hoez.
Not true. Streaming is in no way the same as physical sales. True people do pay for streaming services, but it’s not the same as a physical purchase. An album that’s streamed a million times wasn’t streamed by a million people, it was streamed a million times by a certain amount of people. An album that sells a million physical copies is exactly that: one million physical products sold. Streaming is basically a lazy way for the new generation to achieve these “records”. These new records need to come with an asterisk, because they weren’t truly earned like the Greats who actually sold PHYSICAL products.
I thought Beyonce is new MJ for this generation and i think Rihanna is the Black queen now looking this list!
Beyoncé is because she has a bigger impact & is selling out stadiums 20 years in her career & still remains the biggest artist on the planet . Rihanna’s time is almost up judging from ANTI’s sales
LOL ACCORDING TO THIS LIST STRUGGLEYONCE HAS NO IMPACT LOL.
BIGGEST ARTIST ON THE PLANET, BUT WAS OUTSOLD IN ONE DAY LMAO. RIHANNA CRANKING OUT TOP 10 HITS AND BREAKING A RECORD EVERY WEEK, BUT HER TIME IS UP LMAO. TYPICAL BACKWARD LOGIC FROM THE ROACH MOTEL LMAO.
Streaming is the most accurate, even more than sales. Outsid of the US, we have no data on what these albums sale, we only know what the label tells us. Even back then labels payed radio stations, so don’t think “The Greats” didn’t play any tricks back then. Riahnna is one of the few that has proof of her sales. Queen Of Pop! #YeaISaidIt
Streaming isn’t a legitimate representation of ANYTHING especially when you can set all your devices to repeat songs over and over to boost your fave’s chart positions. THAT is called cheating. BUYING a platinum plaque is called CHEATING.
Exactly. Streaming is an even bigger cheating tactic than payola.
Formation has already grossed over $100 million dollars. Any news on the Anti tour yet ?
My friend had a seat in the 12th row but she got to move up to the 5th
Beyonka is touring like a s**** because that’s the only way she can make money. Her singles flops, her albums sales are nothing to write home with and she’s still Sony’s s****. See what you pest fail to realize is when you OWN your music and label, you get WAY more than 7%. Rihanna is banking on singles, albums and tour sales. She don’t need to s**** away, because her music is making the bank. With that said, the subject is BB top 10s, where did tour come from? oh, from your fears.
MESS @ ‘Beyonce is touring like a s****”
Mum, Formation has grossed 20 million in just four days. Where’s Anti’s updated? Has Rhianna even managed to passed the 20 million mark after 30+ show dates ?
Receipts Bey is only getting 7%!
Exactly with her over inflated prices. Without touring and over the top dance routines Beyonce is nothing. Her songs are whack and she don’t even have hits like Michael, janet, or even Rihanna. That’s why she always release a full album with Videos, because she knows her songs are subpar without a video and her dancing. That’s all her fans talk about her dancing and gyrating, not her songs. She needs over the top choreography to stay alive. She could have that, while Rihanna keep bringing the hits and racking up stats. Ri ri out here breaking records!
Last thing, if #1 hits are so easy, how come someone is going on year 9 without one?
How come you went 20+ years without going to the Free Clinic after being ran through, more times than Anti & Rihanna can say, GOLD, sis?
???
NOT @Meme coming back out of nowhere when it only comments on R•A•P Üp these days. Bye bish! We didn’t miss you!
P.S. @Ashes2AshesDustToSpiritAirlines aka @WHAT NOW. WATCH what you say about Stephon & Annalise. They know ALL of your Transgendered-Black Mart Fix-A-Flat Injection-Fake Voice Box T’s, keep it cute.
I don’t appreciate you talking to me like that. Like me or not I speaksss the truth!
Me & all the BeyPest tears. #Goodnight

What kind of a reach? I knew you were in denial about your sexyality, but you’re illiterate when it comes to reading too, I see.
Beyoncé’s name has been on EVERY single song-writing credit since destiny’s child. Therefore she gets a predominant cut of however many albums she sales. Do your research sis
Wait hold the phone. Why are the pest talking about Rihanna? When no of those Prune Juice songs are in the top 25. Like I said, they will free fall off the charts. No impact, no staying power. Hash tag career.
Hold up! How Sway?
Why is “Prune Juice” outselling cAnti? Acquiring minds are dying to know.
Why are the FRihvy talking about the Hive, when she can’t even sell physical copies or gross over 900k per show? Why are the Frihvy talking about the HIVE when our fave didn’t need to delay her album for two years in accompaniment of a messy rollout? The only thing I see Free falling is Rihanna’s sales after the first week, and DRASTICALLY.
—
You have the audacity to talk about “No Impact” yet Bey has been in the game since the 90s, actually singing/dancing, and INFLUENCING your fave and getting recognition from LEGENDS. You’re audaciousness enough to talk about “staying power” when the only reason Rih is relevant is because she has released an album EVERY year with the exception of her “timeless album” ANTi and commercial deals as well as fashion contracts. Your fave is nothing more than a celebrity high fashion model Joanne Prada aka a SCAMMER.

Now are you done, or should I call Lukhas to come get you? King Mark 111 /.\. Or is it just Mark111 now? ???
No sis! Hold them coins from LukHas because you’re going to need a hospital after this comment!
.
First off how is Someone who is selling an album better than fRih a career hash tag?
.
Second how is SOMEONE that boost the European market through her name alone a career hash tag?
.
Third how is someone that Sells a Stadium Tour 8151561176 lighy years better than Cheatanna dispite having 5 #1s and 20 top 10s compared to Rihanna’s 14 #1s and 39 Top 10s. Le stuggle to sell. Cheatanna is still struggling to sell Arena’s! O how is Beys career a Hash Tag???
.
The things the Slavi say/type and tell themselves to contemplate Cheatannas mediocre career/impact LOL!!
Nnnnn!!! Drag a few tons then sis
Rihanna is the DIGITAL QUEEN yet bey has outdone her on the itunes front and recently set a .billboard record on hot 100. I do think its great that Drake Bey & Rih are acheiving feats currently that legends and icons of the past 80s & 90s havent reached. Drake given bey healthy competition i love it, he has #1 albums on lock & went plat b4 bey. I belive in the future bey will not only be the last black female artist but last artist. The risks shes taking with her albums i truly belive she has ruined A LOT of careers but i wont name names. The list is too long lets just say bey is runing out of competition & the the word LONGEVITY out there with the phrase Triple threat. Congrats rihanna.
There’s no competition though. Rihanna is already the number 1 black female. Beyonce who? Beyonce has a great marketing team, making everyone believe she’s bigger than she really is. She not even in the top 5 of bestselling female artist. But Rihanna is.
Kiiiii at the Navy grasping at all these metaphorical straws and creating these pseudo-ideologies to back their “arguments” because they can’t provide receipts, so instead they choose to leave once the Hive pulls out their receipts? The irony is more transparent, than my reflection on Rihanna’s forehead. Y’all are so tired.
Death!!! Hunteaaa NOOOOO!!! That vocabulary is a foreign language to them. It has to be dumbed down for the Rihtards subnormality! ?
Sis let me play with that t***** pusssy
Congrats to rih for still selling 30+k ww & approaching 1 mill. Congrats to Adele for selling 18 mill in 7 months. & congrats to Drake for #1 hit & for front loaded sales. http://www.mediatraffic.de/albums.htm
Beyonce is recognized as performer. Hence, her sold out stadium tour.
Don’t take your frustrations out on us just because Rhianna is recognized as a singles artist.
Bey Stan always come up with excuses. Adele and Taylor are albums seller as well and they were topping the single front as well. There’s no excuses for Bey who’s proclaimed to be “Queen” can’t even clock in a mil first week or topping the singles chart. SMH.
Congrats to Rih on her success!!!
Why is MJ rocking Lana’s nose?
Rihanna is just someone that sings other people (writers) n1s. Rihanna is untalented lucky girl that was at the rightplace when JZ etc did show up. Rihanna cannt write her own songs, she can’t sing, she cannt dance, she doesn’t play 1 instrument. And i hate her singing voice, it’s the same sound that dying cats makes. Rihanna success in de music business isn’t her success but the success of the writers, Rihanna is just the face of/for their success and nothing more.
SO CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL RIHANNA N1 WRITERS. Rihanna never wrote a song in her life. SHE’S JUST A UNTALENTED LUCKY GIRL.
Streaming streaming streaming
7 singles per year 7 singles per year 7 singles per year
That´s all. Where are the album sales? The talent? She a joke and everybody knows it obviously.
Congrats Rhi Rhi! I love MJ, Janet, Mariah, Stevie and some of the other artists listed, but records are made to be broken. Rihanna has released 8 studio albums in an 11 year period, as well as being featured on a lot of artists songs, so it makes sense that she has many hits. Good for her!
I wish she breaks Mariah’s all-time #1 record. I’ve always despised that woman’s arrogance and childish diva theatrics. I look forward to the injury that would be to her insufferable ego. Congrats Rihanna a #1 in America is nothing to frown on.
Well love em or hate, I’ve noticed Bey and Rih are making a lot of big moves (on an overall recording-holding tally). Rihanna on the singles front and Bey, obviously with albums and touring! Congrats!
Miss Rihanna is truly awesome. Congratulations!
I love Rihanna . That concert was so good last night in ATL. I really enjoyed myself. Can’t believe I saw her. Such an inspiration.
Wheres Sorry
that Rihanna reign just won’t let up…
That Rihanna reign really just won’t let up …people talking like Rihanna do Ciara numbers in term of album sales … her album sales are not impressive yet she still do okay . Don’t forget it’s her 8 album and what she achieved in such little time can be compared to a longer career .
This girl have 10 years + , 8 albums , stadium statut .
Rihanna already scored 10 number one hit without streams and in those 10 only 4 are features .
She’s not the best performer yet she still do great in touring
She’s not the best album seller yet she still do ok in albums sales.
Hollywood respect her
She sings others songs but let’s not forget Beyonce do the same, even Whitney Houston did the same her biggest hit I Will always love u its a cover of dolly parton song .
Interpreting a song its not easy cause you have to add that unique vibe that make the song yours.
And she wrote songs in Rated R and many more . She writes song they just dont make the final cut on the album .
You can’t be pressed but rihanna stand in the same room as Bey today, because who else can compete with Bey nowadays if its not Rihanna ?
Wow… They couldn’t have found a better picture of Mich? ?
LOL THE BUGS WERE CELEBRATING WHEN ALL OF KOOLAID’S SONGS CHARTED, NOW THAT THEY ALL FREE FELL, THEY LASH OUT AT RIHANNA LMAO. TELL EM WHY U MAD ROACHES LMAO.
HOW’S SORRY DOING AGAIN? LMAO.
AND CAN YALL FIND FLOPMATION ON THE CHARTS THIS WEEK? LMAO
Michael’s hair used to really be offa teas
But… I thought she was OVER?
That Rihanna reign just won’t let up. Get it girl!
This girl!!! Cease to amaze me! I find hilarious that the hive are talking crap but their faces singles came an went like a clerk on payday ???. I mean lemonade a hype was so short lived. Yet you guys talked so much trash. It’s so sad. But in all honesty I bang with like three songs. With hold up falling to the bottom of the three. It’s like the novelty of the songs just wear off so quickly. But again congrats to a solo single without a feature releases since late Jan making its way too the top10 with a “flop” video as its only promotion. Never mistake the power in her name with anyone else’s. It’s still beyond me why anything Ciara is mentioned here. Charters and legends only?
Riri will be a top artist of the greatest Singer one day in her life And she’s not gonna always have the number one all the times whenever she come out with an album or single of songs. By the way her anti album is out
