Drake hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Janice STFU,” a debut that gave him his 14th career chart leader and pushed him past Michael Jackson for the most No. 1s among solo males in the chart’s 67-year archives. The song arrived on the May 30, 2026, Hot 100 after pulling 40.7 million official streams, 2.1 million radio airplay audience impressions and 3,000 sold in the U.S. from May 15-21.
It was not just a chart-topper. “Janice STFU” launched at No. 1 on Streaming Songs, giving Drake a record-extending 22nd leader there, and opened at No. 6 on Digital Song Sales. Billboard said Drake claimed one of the most triumphant weeks in the history of the Hot 100, led by the song’s No. 1 debut.
The scale of the week was even bigger across Drake’s catalog. He added nine new Hot 100 top 10s, extending his career total to 90, and placed 42 songs on the chart at once, breaking Morgan Wallen’s one-week mark of 37. Of those, 40 were debuts. Drake also became the first act ever to pass 400 career entries on the Hot 100, a threshold no artist had reached before.
All 42 titles came from his three new albums, ICEMAN, HABIBTI and MAID OF HONOUR, which opened at Nos. 1, 2 and 3 on the Billboard 200. Drake released the albums on May 15, 2026, through OVO Sound and Republic, and the first week of listening showed up everywhere at once: streaming, sales and radio.
Among the new songs, “2 Hard 4 the Radio” led Drake’s airplay audience with 6.3 million, followed by “Ran to Atlanta” at 4.1 million, “Cheetah Print” at 2.8 million and “Amazing Shape” at 1.2 million. The chart’s design explains the result: the Hot 100 blends streaming, radio airplay and sales, and Luminate reviews and authenticates the data before the final totals are published.
For Drake, the numbers say the same thing from every angle. He has turned a three-album release into the biggest single-week showing in Hot 100 history, and the record is not just that “Janice STFU” went to No. 1. It is that one release week produced more chart entries than any artist had ever managed before.
