Drake knows a thing or two about trophies and breaking records. The 6 God celebrated surpassing Michael Jackson for the most No. 1s among male solo acts on Tuesday (May 26) after “Janice STFU” debuted atop the Billboard Hot 100.
“Neck broke from carrying the chain Back broke from carrying the game Records broken carry on my name Carry on carry on,” Drizzy captioned the IG post — which could double as lyrics — featuring an illustrated photo of Michael Jackson with Iceman blue braids in front of a snowy landscape.
Iceman standout “Janice STFU” notched Drake his 14th No. 1 on the Hot 100 to usurp the throne from MJ. It was a historic tracking week for Drizzy following the release of his Iceman, Habibti and Maid of Honour trifecta.

Drake posted 42 entries on this week’s Billboard Hot 100, which surpasses Morgan Wallen’s record of 37 from last May. With the extra Billboard Hot 100 ammo from his three new albums, that brings the OVO boss’ total count to over 400 entries on the Hot 100 in his decorated career.
Iceman, Habibti and Maid of Honour arrived on May 15 and the trio debuted at Nos. 1, 2 and 3 on the Billboard 200, making Drake the first to hold the top three simultaneously in the chart’s history.
Iceman served as the main attraction, earning 463,000 equivalent album units in the United States in the week ending May 21.
The No. 1 scored Drake his 14th, which breaks a tie with Jay-Z to hold the most No. 1s on the Billboard 200 of any rapper. As for Habibti and Maid of Honour, the pair notched 114,000 and 110,000 units, respectively. Drizzy holds nine of the top 10 slots on this week’s Hot 100, with the only non-Drake song being Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” at No. 5.
