Beyonce‘s full of surprises isn’t she?

They don’t call her the Songbird Supreme for nothing.
When it comes to Hot 100 stats, Mariah Carey reigns supreme and you’d be hard pressed to find anyone who can match or surpass her seemingly insurmountable feats.
Beyond being the only solo artist in the 65-year history to have captured 19 #1 hits, she’s also the only artist to have topped the tally in four distinct decades. Elsewhere, she’s known as the first female act to debut at #1 (1995’s ‘Fantasy‘), the first act overall to have their first 5 solo singles reach #1, and she holds the title for most cumulative weeks at #1 (93 and counting).
And while those accomplishments are just the tip of the iceberg, one of the shiniest jewels in her Billboard crown was being one of two artists to lay claim to charting at least one top 10 hit every year for over a decade.
This week, she learned a third act seems poised to join that fold: The Weeknd.

This week, she penciled in yet another historic feat to her log when her self-titled debut album opened in the Billboard 200’s top 40.

Originally predicted to sell in the range of 350,000 copies its first week, the Country-flavored effort – which boasted features from the likes of Miley Cyrus, Post Malone, Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, and more – was already on its way to blockbuster status before news of history-making streams at Spotify and Amazon Music were reported.
