Drake Is The Latest Musician To Chart Singles At Nos. 1 And 2 Simultaneously

As Drake's new single "Nice For What"debuts at No. 1 on the Hot 100 this week, his previous leader "God's Plan" is forced to loosen its iron-tight grasp on the highest slot on the all-encompassing songs tally after 11 weeks in a row at the top. While it might not have collected a twelfth week at the peak, "God's Plan" hasn't gone far, and this frame, it is currently comfortable at No. 2 on the chart, making Drake one of the few artists in history who have been able to control the loftiest two slots on the closely watched and highly competitive Hot 100.

Drake is now the eighteenth musician in U.S. history to see their name appear in the Nos. 1 and 2 positions on the all-genre listing at the same time, and he's in some pretty excellent company when it comes to this specific chart feat.

The first musical act to control the top two slots on the properly-established Hot 100 was The Beatles, who did so several times over. The Fab Four swapped singles in and out of the slots, sometimes dominating more than just Nos. 1 and 2, for several weeks in 1964, when they were first truly unstoppable.

Since The Beatles ruled Nos. 1 and 2 simultaneously a number of times with a handful of well-known tunes that are still beloved to this day, the following 17 acts have all appeared in the top two slots on the Hot 100, either as a leader, a featured guest on a track powered by another star or possibly both: the Bee Gees, Puff Daddy, Ja Rule, Ashanti, Nelly, Outkast, Usher, 50 Cent, Mariah Carey, Akon, T.I., the Black Eyed Peas, Pharrell, Iggy Azalea, The Weeknd Justin Bieber and now Drake.

Of that group, six artists—The Beatles, Nelly, Akon, T.I., the Black Eyed Peas and Justin Biebersaw their monikers appear at Nos. 1 and 2 on more than one occasion, which is something Drake hasn't done just yet. If "Nice For What" steps aside and slides to No. 2 and "God's Plan" returns to No. 1 in the coming weeks, he'll be the seventh to do so, but there's no telling how long he'll dominate the highest reaches of the Hot 100 the way he currently is.
