I’m sure Drake always knew a song he created called “Janice STFU.”
Drake has officially broken another one of his own Billboard records.
“Janice STFU” has now spent 19 weeks at No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Rap Songs chart, making it the longest-running No. 1 hit of Drake’s career on that chart. The song passes “Hotline Bling,” which previously held his personal record after spending 18 weeks at the summit between 2015 and 2016.
“Janice STFU” has controlled the chart since debuting at No. 1 on the listing dated May 30. During its record-breaking week, the song generated approximately nine million official U.S. streams and reached an airplay audience of 15.7 million. The Hot Rap Songs chart combines streaming, radio airplay, and sales data.
Drake now has eight songs that have spent at least 10 weeks atop the chart. Behind “Janice STFU” and “Hotline Bling” are “Best I Ever Had” with 15 weeks, “The Motto” with 14, “Rich Flex” and “I’m on One” with 13 apiece, and “God’s Plan” and “In My Feelings” with 11 each.
The 19-week run also ties “Janice STFU” with Lil Nas X and Jack Harlow’s “Industry Baby” for the fourth-longest reign in Hot Rap Songs history. Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s “Luther” holds the overall record with 47 weeks (This dude just can’t escape from Kendrick’s wrath).
I wonder if Drake knew “Janice STFU” would become this massive. Timbaland clearly saw it coming; unfortunately, we definitely did not.
