Drake makes Billboard history with the most no. 1s on their R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart.

Drake broke a Billboard record this week, surpassing Usher for the most no. 1 records on Billboard's R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay charts since its inception 22 years ago.

The news arrives as Lil Wayne's new single "Believe Me" featuring his YMCMB labelmate Drake enters the no. 1 spot on the R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart. Thus Drake nabs his 14th no. 1 record on the R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart, passing Usher who previously held the record with 13 no. 1s. Lil Wayne isn't too far behind, with "Believe Me" acting at his 10th no. 1 single on the chart.

Drake and Lil Wayne are preparing to embark on their joint tour "Drake Vs. Lil Wayne" in the coming weeks, with the tour kicking off on August 8th in Buffalo. The full set of tour dates can be seen here.

Congrats to Drake on his latest achievement.
