2016 continues to be kind to Drake.
The Grammy-winning rapper, whose album ‘Views’ not only topped the charts for months but also reigns as the year’s best-seller, is now blessing the Hot 100 with entries from another project due before the year’s end – ‘More Life.’
But, before fans are able to get their hands on the project in full, gems from its tracklist are already making appearances all over the Hot 100. To date, the most successful of the new releases is undoubtedly ‘Fake Love’:
Billboard reports:
…Drake‘s “Fake Love” vaults 24-10 in its second chart week. Following its first full week of tracking, the song zooms 28-6 on Streaming Songs (17.2 million, up 121 percent), although it slips 5-10 on Digital Song Sales (43,000, down 25 percent). It also crowns the audio subscription services-based On-Demand Songs streaming chart, bolting 8-1 (17.1 million on-demand clicks, up 120 percent) to become his record-breaking fifth No. 1 on the tally (which launched in March 2012); he passes Bieber, with four.
“Fake” is Drake’s 18th Hot 100 top 10, the third-most among rappers. Jay Z leads with 21, followed by Lil Wayne with 19; Ludacris also boasts 18. (Drake breaks a tie with Eminem, who’s earned 17 top 10s.)”
