Drake's 11th studio album has been receiving a lot of backlash from fans and critics for his sudden change of genre, but it only proves that he's successful as "Honestly, Nevermind" continues to thrive despite its haters.
According to Uproxx, the Canadian rapper broke another personal record after 13 of the 14 songs from his latest album made it to the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
This latest milestone extends his record for an artist with most songs in the charts, comprising 263 tracks.
In addition, his new album is his 11th record to hit number one on the carts, placing him in third place with Bruce Springsteen and Barbra Streisand.
The second place belongs to The Beatles, who have 19, while the top spot remains untouched as Jay-Z continues to hold 14 number one albums.
Even though his album continues to thrive, Drake's success is unstoppable as he recently revealed his plans for this year outside of music.
Speaking to his Table For One radio show on SiriusXM, the rapper said he would release a book later this year.
"Me and Kenzo have a book coming out this year. Yeah, we have a book coming out this year, a poetry book. So I hope you guys tune into that, too, because that's going to be some s***."
He's also planning to release a sequel EP to his hit "Scary Hours," but hesitates to do so because he just dropped a surprise album.
"I got another Scary Hours pack coming, too, in a little bit. Maybe not, like... maybe not right now; I need you to just take this [Honestly, Nevermind] in right now. But I have a Scary Hours, I'm gonna slap some head tops off with a Scary Hours pack," he said.
The latest milestone comes a few days after Drake reacted to the critics of his dance music album.
Many fans deemed his new album as "mall music" that's usually being played at stores like Zara, Forever 21, and H&M.
In an Instagram video, Drake noted that "it's all good" if some of his fans didn't get his new record.
"It's all good if you don't get it yet. It's all good, that's what we do. We wait for you to catch up. We're in here, though. We're caught up already. On to the next. My goodness," he added.
