The Weeknd is back on the Billboard charts this week with his featured role in the song “Young Metro” by Future and Metro Boomin. This track marks The Weeknd’s ninety-ninth appearance on the Hot 100, bringing him close to reaching the milestone of one hundred charted songs. “Young Metro” debuts at No. 9 on the Hot 100, reflecting its popularity in America as one of five new songs from Future and Boomin to enter the top 10.
Future and Metro Boomin dominate the Billboard charts this week with their joint album “We Don’t Trust You,” which debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. Additionally, most of the tracks on the album also make it to the Hot 100, showcasing the duo’s success across both albums and songs rankings. The Weeknd, who first appeared on the Hot 100 in 2012, has steadily risen to become a prominent and successful artist with numerous hit songs to his name.
The Weeknd has achieved seven No. 1 hits and a total of 18 top 10 successes on the Hot 100 throughout his career. With just one more song needed to reach the milestone of one hundred charted songs, it is likely that The Weeknd will achieve this soon through either a solo release or a collaboration that has yet to be announced. Once he reaches this milestone, he will join a select group of artists who have achieved triple-digit placements on the Hot 100.
The exclusive club of artists with one hundred or more Hot 100 appearances is led by Drake with 329 charted songs, followed by Taylor Swift with 232. Other notable artists in this club include Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj, and Travis Scott. The Weeknd’s continuous success on the Billboard charts solidifies his position as one of the top musicians in the industry today, with a strong track record of producing hit songs and maintaining a strong presence on the charts.
As The Weeknd continues to release new music and collaborate with other artists, his career is on track to reach even greater heights in the future. His ability to consistently produce chart-topping hits has earned him a loyal fan base and critical acclaim in the music industry. With his one-hundredth Hot 100 appearance on the horizon, The Weeknd’s position as a top-tier artist is only set to be further solidified in the years to come.
