The records keep coming for Drake, who matches the Beatles' feat first set 51 years ago.
Thanks to his surprise album If You're Reading This It's Too Late, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 (dated Feb. 28) with 535,000 equivalent album units, according to Nielsen Music,
Drake has tied a record that stood unmatched for 51 years: He charts 14 songs simultaneously on the Billboard Hot 100 (dated March 7). The sum equals the 14 titles that the Beatles placed on the Hot 100 dated April 11, 1964.
Drake ties the Beatles' mark established on the Hot 100 at the zenith of Beatlemania. He'd previously come closest to matching the mark: He placed 12 titles concurrently on the Oct. 12, 2013, chart. That week, his last studio album, Nothing Was the Same, entered the Billboard 200 at No. 1 with 658,000 copies sold. (The new set is widely considered a mixtape, not a traditional studio effort.)
