Lil Wayne Stole Elvis’ Billboard Hot 100 Record!
Thursday, September 27th, 2012
It’s a sad day in legendary music. Yes, Lil Wayne is an acclaimed rapper BUT that is sooo not the point.
[From gossipcop.com]
Lil Wayne has broken Elvis Presley’s record for most individual Billboard Hot 100 hits.
The rapper’s appearance on Game’s “Celebration,” which just hit the chart, gives Lil Wayne a staggering 109 Billboard hits, passing Presley’s 108 entries.
There are a couple of caveats, though.
While Presley was credited as the lead artist on all 108 of his Billboard hits, Lil Wayne has been the lead on just 42 of his — he appears as a “featured act” on the other 67 singles.
Meanwhile, several of Presley’s biggest hits came before Billboard debuted its signature Hot 100 list in 1958.
