Drake continues to dominate the charts.

The Toronto superstar's latest album, Iceman, has secured a fourth consecutive week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, moving 133,000 equivalent album units in the United States during the latest tracking period.

The project's success remains largely driven by streaming. Of the album's weekly total, 132,000 units came from streaming activity, which translates to more than 135 million on-demand streams of songs from the album. The project also held onto the top spot on Billboard's Top Streaming Albums chart for a fourth straight week.

The latest milestone puts Iceman in rare company. It's the first album to spend its opening four weeks at No. 1 since Taylor Swift's The Life of a Showgirl began its run with seven straight weeks atop the chart in late 2025.

Among hip-hop and R&B releases, Drake's streak is even more notable. Before Iceman, the last album in either genre to debut at No. 1 and stay there for its first four weeks was Travis Scott's Utopia in 2023.

The accomplishment also adds to Drake's already historic resume. With Iceman spending another week atop the Billboard 200, he now has 41 career weeks at No. 1 on the chart. That extends his record for the most weeks at No. 1 among hip-hop artists and Canadian acts.

The new total also pushes Drake past Adele, who amassed 40 weeks at No. 1 between 2011 and 2022. If Iceman remains at the summit for another week, Drake would tie Morgan Wallen at 42 weeks.

Drake's reign at No. 1 spans nearly 16 years, dating back to Thank Me Later in 2010. Views remains his longest-running chart-topper with 13 weeks at No. 1 in 2016, while Scorpion and Certified Lover Boy each logged five weeks atop the chart.

Iceman’s breakout, "Shabang," has become a cultural phenomenon. The song recently climbed to No. 4 on the Hot 100 and inspired a viral TikTok challenge that has drawn participation from fans, influencers, and even Drake himself while vacationing in Turks and Caicos.
