Drake matches The Beatles' Billboard chart record

Drake is the first artist to match a chart feat set by The Beatles.

Over five decades ago The Beatles set a new chart record by having 14 songs in the Billboard Top 100 simultaneously.

51 years on and Canadian rapper Drake – whose real name is Aubrey Drake Graham – has now matched The Beatles’ achievement.

Following the surprise release of this latest album, ‘If You’re Reading This, It’s Too Late’, ten of the LP’s 17 tracks have charted and Drake also features on a further four songs on the Billboard 100.

Drake’s current Billboard 100 chart positions are as follows:

#16 ‘Only’ – Nicki Minaj featuring Drake, Lil Wayne and Chris Brown

#17 ‘Tuffle Butter’ – Nicki Minaj featuring Drake and Lil Wayne

#26 ‘Energy’ – Drake

#49 ‘Tuesday’ – IloveMakonnen featuring Drake
