Taylor Swift is the first artist to reach all ten positions on the Billboard Hot 100 in the same week
The artist, whose latest album ‘Midnights’ dropped last week, surpasses Drake, who claimed nine of the top 10 spots last year.
Taylor Swift becomes the first artist to take the entire top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart in a single week, making this one of the most historic weeks in the list’s 64-year history.
Drake, who had nine of the top ten songs on the Hot 100 for a week in September 2021, is surpassed by Swift.
Swift’s ninth career No. 1 single, “Anti-Hero,” sets the bar high for her on the Hot 100.
The top 10 songs on the Hot 100 are all from Taylor Swift’s latest album Midnights, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart on October 21 with the biggest week for any release in seven years.
With her monopoly of the top 10, Swift also surpasses Drake and The Beatles, who both dominated the top five for one week in 2021 and 1964, respectively, for the most Hot 100 titles from the top in a single week.
Swift now has 40 top 10s, which is more than Madonna’s 38, making her the female artist with the most in the history of the Hot 100. She comes in second only to Drake among all acts (59 top 10s).
Additionally, Midnights surpasses Drake’s Certified Lover Boy’s nine 2021 Hot 100 top 10s to become the first album in history with as many as 10 top 10s.
