With Drake’s ICEMAN debuting at No. 1 on the latest Billboard 200 albums chart (dated May 30), the superstar picks up his 15th leader. In turn, he ties Taylor Swift for the most No. 1s among soloists. Drake and Swift trail just one act, The Beatles, who have the most No. 1s among all acts, with 19. JAY-Z now follows Drake and Swift, with 14 leaders.
Take a look at the list of every act with at least 10 No. 1 albums on the Billboard 200 — since the chart began publishing on a regular, weekly basis in March 1956 — below.
