Drake lands another Top 10 hit in "Pain 1993" with Playboi Carti, which ties him with Madonna for the most-ever Top 10 singles on the Billboard Hot 100.

Drake is one of the most accomplished artists of all time. Whenever he releases a song or a project, the people listen. As one of the most impactful rappers ever, he also owns a number of chart records. This week, he managed to get even closer to his next big feat: becoming the artist with the most Top 10 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 ever.

This week's update of the Billboard Hot 100 was a very big event. Nobody knew which track would stand tall as the favorite for the top spot but, finally, Doja Cat and Nicki Minaj were named the champions of the week with "Say So." Elsewhere in the Top 10, Drake debuted at #7 with "Pain 1993," his Playboi Carti collaboration, and it marks an important moment in both of their careers.

For one, this is the first time Playboi Carti has been in the Top 10. Drake, on the other hand, has almost been there more often than any other artist in history. Alongside "Toosie Slide," which is currently at #4, Drake just earned his 38th entry in the Billboard Hot 100's Top 10. That effectively ties him with Madonna as the two biggest hitmakers in chart history.

All he needs is one more big hit and he can boast about being the most accomplished hitmaker in Hot 100 history. When do you think it'll happen?
