"I spend my life trying to make waves for the city I am from [Toronto]. No accolades really matter to me other than the fact that I have never had a billboard number one," Drake posted on Instagram. "If I get my first number one during the month of October it will be the biggest moment of my career to date (in my mind) and if you are looking for me on that particular evening I will be passed out in the water slide that connects to our pool.

"I love you and thank you for these memories. I always love the moment right before it happens more than when it actually happens. So thank you ... even if it doesn't."

One key note: Drake has topped the Hot 100, but in a featured role. Rihanna's "What's My Name," featuring Drake, crowned the Hot 100 dated Nov. 20, 2010. As a lead, "Bling" has tied his debut hit, "Best I Ever Had," for his highest rank; "Best" peaked at No. 2 on the Hot 100 for four weeks in 2009.

I hope he never gets the #1

Wow at his feature with Rihanna being his only #1 though. What a great era that he was a part of in making history.
