I think he has a chance in a week or two since the song is now blowing up at pop

Yap, it's the end...  The video is not gonna be out soon enough I guess, Ariana is coming in 2 weeks... Than Adele, Bieber and all... and those Remixes of The Hills will keep it there until than. I love you Abel, and Drake is the one who bring you to this world +/- and he hasn't been number 1 on BB never while you were there twice in the past months. Not fair.

Not necessarily
it's blowing up at pop

He better not steal Nicki's #1 from the Hot 100, or I'll be pissed.

Who's to say either will get a #1 credit?
Billboard won't recognize it if so then anyone with a #1 hit would get their friends to sing or rap on a remix and then the whole chart would be bastardized and not legit.
I think 2011 was the last time that worked and with S& M remix the original wouldnt have hit #1 without it whereas this song is already #1

I don't think Drake is stopped for now.
Apparently on Hip-Hop forums the stans are saying HB, it's video is coming next week.
Hotline Bling:
Sales - 150K (video effect + rise on Pop Radio by then) = 15,000
Airplay - 130M = 15,116
Streaming - 23M = 31,081
Total: 61,197
The Hills:
Sales - 150K = 15,000
Airplay - 150M = 17,442
Streaming - 19M = 25,676
Total: 58,118
And honestly, the remix effect I feel like I'm overrating. Yes it's gonna be high on iTunes today because two big artists with fanbases. However, the remixes are so terrible and extra. I don't see them lasting a week. Let alone long enough to give the song a 50% boost over what it's doing now, in the 2nd week of their release.
If the video comes next week I think he's fine.

I think The hills will take it this week (neither em or nicki will get the credit) and then the week after Drake drops the video with a full week of sales and it's exploding on pop HB will get it.
The hills has 1 or 2 more weeks and then at the end of October I see drake taking it before Ariana and new Bieber/Adele come through.

He has an Apple Music deal. The girls in the video got iPhones as payment. The Energy video didn't go on VEVO until months after the Apple Music/Vimeo premiere... his team sucks when it comes to stuff like this.
