According to Billboard, this is a huge milestone for Drake, as it is officially his 14th number-one hit. This has allowed him to surpass Michael Jackson for the most number-one hits from a male solo artist.

Furthermore, it should be mentioned that Drake has 42 tracks on the charts this week. This is officially a record for most simultaneous debuts on the Hot 100. The previous record was occupied by Morgan Wallen, who once had 37 songs on the charts at one time.

If you are curious about the other 13 Drake songs that have gone number one, you can find them below. As you will notice, most of Drake’s number ones are from 2016 onward. This makes a lot of sense as 2016 is around the time he started tripling down on the pop records.

Evidently, things are slowly changing these days as he prepares to take his new album BULLY to venues across Europe. And while some countries refused to let him enter, places like Albania and the Netherlands are gearing up to see the Chicago artist make his triumphant return.

But where does that put his shows in the U.S.? Will BULLY see a North American tour? Well, the demand certainly isn’t lost. His sold-out shows at the SoFi Stadium in California proved that people have anticipated his live shows, and it appears that his next stop will be in Florida. According to The Tampa Bay Times, Ye will be returning to Tampa for the first time in ten years, since the Saint Pablo tour at the former Amalie Arena. This time, Ye will perform at Raymond James Stadium on June 26th, 2026.

If you know anything about these streams, you would know that he is constantly making women feel uncomfortable. He gets into their personal space, and then he guilts them whenever they reject his advances. These clips consistently go viral on social media, and some feel as though Broner is crying for help.

Overall, these streams have been in collaboration with Deen The Great, who has also been heavily criticized for his on-stream behavior. Recently, however, the two hosted Sexyy Red, and as you can imagine, there were all sorts of awkward clips emanating from the stream.

For instance, last night, Broner attempted to shoot his shot with Sexyy Red, who clearly had more interest in Deen. This subsequently led to a moment in which Broner called this out, and Sexyy Red could nothing but just look on in silence.

Adrien Broner Back On Stream

There were other instances of Broner attempting to put the moves on Sexyy Red, but to no avail. This is not Sexyy Red’s first time when it comes to streaming with these kinds of creators, so she knows the drill and kept her composure quite nicely.

Ultimately, if you are a fan of Adrien Broner, you can’t help but feel like this is a sad fall from grace. At one time, some thought he could be the next Floyd Mayweather. Instead, his career stalled out with some bad losses.

Not to mention, his behavior and appearance over the past few years have been a cause for concern. His recent streams with Deen The Great make you wonder whether or not he is in the proper headspace to be on stream at all.

Whatever the case may be, there is no doubt that Mamdani is one of the most scrutinized men in all of America. Now, Peter Rosenberg is contributing to that. On The Ebro Laura Rosenberg Show, Rosenberg displayed his displeasure with the Mayor and his team.

In a lengthy rant, he revealed that Mayor Mamdani had promised to do their show. However, he hasn’t made himself available, and there has been a game of telephone to try to get him on.

Peter Rosenberg Upset With Zohran Mamdani’s Team

In the clip above, Rosenberg describes how the Mamdani team has had numerous demands for their interview. For instance, they wanted questions ahead of time. Furthermore, they wanted the hosts to show up an hour early, which also involved moving dates and times around.

The interview has yet to be conducted, and Rosenberg is at his wits’ end about it. With Mamdani making appearances at New York Knicks games, Rosenberg feels as though some time could be carved out for an appearance on the show.

Moreover, the New York radio host notes that they were fired from the Hot97 morning show soon after the infamous interview with Andrew Cuomo. The implication here is that Ebro, Laura, and Rosenberg had a hand in electing Mamdani, all while sacrificing themselves and their jobs.

Whether or not Mamdani comes on the show in light of this rant remains to be seen. Whatever the case may be, Rosenberg’s point has been made.

Now that ICEMAN, HABIBTI, and MAID OF HONOUR are dominating the charts, Ak is looking to take a victory lap of sorts. He has been streaming a whole lot as of late, and as per usual, Kendrick Lamar has been a hot topic of conversation.

In a recent clip posted by his alternate account on X, Ak claims that street rappers have been telling him that Lamar killed rap. How? Well, his moralizing against Drake in the beef has created discourse that is beginning to infiltrate every single discussion about every single artist.

DJ Akademiks On Kendrick Lamar

Akademiks argues that previously, no one questioned whether or not the artists they listened to were good people. In fact, he argues that fans wanted to listen to artists with legal troubles and checkered pasts. However, following the beef, Kendrick has made it so that some fans are constantly taking a stand against those they deem morally reprehensible.

Ultimately, one has to wonder which artists are telling Ak these things. You also have to wonder how genuine of a take this take is, given Ak’s proximity to Drake.

Discussing the morality of certain artists is not a new thing. During the rise of #MeToo, plenty of artists were debated and subsequently denounced for past behaviors. To this day, the reverberations from the movement are being felt. It’s hardly a new thing, and, interestingly, Ak would attribute this to K. Dot and not just society in general.

Cardi B, specifically, had several categories on lock. In the Best Hip-Hop Album category, Cardi took the win for Am I The Drama? In this category, she went up against Don Toliver’s OCTANE, Gunna’s The Last Wun, Playboi Carti’s MUSIC, and NBA Youngboy’s MASA. 

Her second win came in the Best Hip-Hop song category for “ErrTime.” Here, she faced off against Drake’s “NOKIA,” Gunna’s “wgft” ft. Burna Boy, Playboi Carti’s “Rather Lie” ft. The Weeknd, and YKNIECE’s “Take Me Thru Dere” ft. Quavo, Metro Boomin & Breskii.

And Cardi B’s third came in the Best Female Hip-Hop Artist category, where she emerged victorious against GloRilla, Doechii, Sexyy Red, and YKNIECE.

The ladies were also represented well in the Breakthrough Hip-Hop Artist category, with Monaleo taking the win. She was up against EsDeeKid and PLUTO.

However, the team is finally experiencing some success. On Monday night, they blew out the Cleveland Cavaliers to secure their spot in the NBA Finals. Now, they await the winner of the series between the San Antonio Spurs and the Oklahoma City Thunder.

You can imagine just how happy Fat Joe is about all of this. Unfortunately, according to the man himself, he has not been treated well by the Cavs franchise. According to the famous artist, he was blocked from purchasing courtside seats for Games 3 and 4.

Fat Joe On The Cavaliers

At Madison Square Garden, Fat Joe is a mainstay of celebrity row. This usually contains other famous celebrities like Spike Lee, Timothee Chalamet, and even Ben Stiller. Many of these famous Knicks fans were courtside in Cleveland. However, Fat Joe got blocked. In his words, the Cavs did this because he is a Knicks superfan.

Ultimately, this isn’t extremely surprising. It would be a bad look for the Cavaliers if all of their courtside seats were occupied by Knicks fans. It would make it seem as though the team doesn’t have a strong fanbase of its own.

With that being said, the NBA Finals will begin next week, and we imagine Fat Joe will be courtside for Games 3 and 4, as the Knicks are guaranteed to be the lower seed in the series.

Since that fateful Friday, DJ Hed has remained in the headlines thanks to a recent move involving the song “2 Hard 4 The Radio.” This is the song in which Drake takes shots at the West Coast over Bay Area production. He even disses Mustard on the song, for good measure. However, Hed took it upon himself to remove some of the disses and clean it up for his own radio broadcast.

This has led to some widespread criticism, with many stating that DJ Hed should either play the song as it was written or just forget about it entirely. Overall, this was a take that was articulated by Wayno on his YouTube page.

DJ Hed Takes Some Heat

Rory & Mal had a similar take on the situation, with the pair calling Hed “weird” for his move. Rory & Mal have been kind to Drake over the past couple of years, so this should not be a surprise. However, it’s clear that hip-hop commentators don’t love the idea of a DJ editing out disses to make his friends more comfortable.

In the end, Drake is likely to have the last laugh here as “2 Hard 4 The Radio” is one of potentially 43 tracks that will land on the Billboard Hot 100 tomorrow. In fact, this is a song that has Top 10 potential given its hype on the album.

However, it is expected that “Janice STFU” will be the song contending for number one.

While there were flashes of brilliance, like Linsanity, the franchise was mostly stuck in the pits of hell. Knicks owner James Dolan was consistently maligned in the media, while numerous coaches were hired and fired. For 27 years, it was a dark time to be a Knicks fan. Of course, 27 years ago was the last time they made it to the NBA Finals. When was the last time they won the championship? 1973.

In recent years, the Knicks have been on the up and up. Jalen Brunson, Karl-Anthony Towns, and Josh Hart have helped turn this team into perennial playoff contenders. Last season, the Knicks were a win away from the NBA Finals. This season, however, they finally got the job done. Last night, they blew the Cleveland Cavaliers out in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals to complete the sweep.

Unsurprisingly, New York City was in a state of euphoria after the game, and they were seen turning up on the streets after the game.

New York Knicks Fans Rejoice

This was an incredible moment for the Knicks fanbase, especially when you consider everything they have been through over the past few years. Now, they can breathe easy for about a week as they await their opponent in the Finals.

That opponent will either be the San Antonio Spurs or the Oklahoma City Thunder. Their series is tied 2-2, with Game 5 going down tonight in OKC. It has been an incredible series, and if it goes seven, the Knicks will be well-rested compared to their opponent.

No matter what, the Knicks making the Finals is both good for basketball and the NBA. Now, one of the most downtrodden fanbases in the league can have a little taste of success.

This week, the Billboard Hot 100 is coming out on Wednesday, and there is a realistic chance that Drizzy logs over 40 tracks on the charts. Even if he doesn’t do that, he will likely surpass Morgan Wallen’s record of 37 simultaneous debuts on the Hot 100.

Many have wondered which Drake track will end up going number one. Unfortunately, for the artist, he still needs to contend with Ella Langley, whose song “Choosin’ Texas” has been a stubborn number one for weeks.

That said, early forecasts are now claiming that if Drake does take the number one spot, it will be with “Janice STFU.”

Drake Is On The Cusp Of Another Number One Song

“Janice STFU” has been far and away the runaway hit from the ICEMAN project. While some feel as though “Shabang” could also become a number one song, it is clear that “Janice STFU” is the song of the summer. At least for now.

At this time, Drake occupies the top three spots on the Billboard 200. He is now the first artist to debut with three albums in the top three spots. Overall, this is a spectacular achievement. It speaks to Drake’s longevity and ability to own the narrative.

Moreover, he now has 15 number ones, which is a hip-hop record. He is also tied with Taylor Swift for the most number ones by a solo act. Needless to say, Drake’s career was never actually dead.
