While the Billboard 200 run of Drake‘s latest album, ‘Views,’ is by no means anything to shake a stick it, the Hot 100 runs of the songs that line its tracklisting are nothing less than historic.

As if notching 20 simultaneous Hot 100 hits wasn’t enough, the crooning emcee is currently reigning with the longest consecutive top 10 run of any male artist in history.  After last month saw him best fellow Canadian hitmaker, The Weeknd’s, impressive 45 week run over 2015-16, this week – as his song ‘One Dance’ slips to #8 – the Young Money maestro notched his 50th (yes, count ’em) consecutive week in the top 10.

The accomplishment not only extends his reign as the male artist with the most consecutive weeks in the tally’s top 10, but it puts him in second place overall (behind Katy Perry‘s whopping 69 consecutive week run at the turn of the decade).

Until we find out if he’ll be beating Miss Perry, tuck in below to find out all of your other favorites landed on this week’s refreshed Hot 100:

Surprisingly, the Canadian crooner decided to try his hand at Tupac‘s ‘Thugz Mansion’ and Tracy Chapman‘s classic ‘Fast Car.’
