Drake and SZA’s hit, “Slime You Out,” marked the inception of the anticipated release of Drake’s album, “For All The Dogs,” inching him closer to a historic milestone. Additionally, this track reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts, becoming his twelfth to achieve this, and positioned him alongside the iconic Michael Jackson, who has thirteen No. 1 hits. This means the rapper from Toronto is a single song away from equalling him for the fourth-most number ones in the history of Billboard. Currently, he shares the fifth position with Madonna and The Supremes.

A few artists still surpass them in terms of total No. 1s on the Billboard Hot 100, but achieving this milestone is nonetheless an extraordinary accomplishment.

It’s reasonable to speculate that another track from “For All The Dogs” could secure this accomplishment for the 36-year-old artist. Considering the sustained momentum in his career, it would not be astonishing to witness him ascend further in his musical journey.
