Every Artist With 100 or More Billboard Hot 100 Hits
Debuting a song on the Billboard Hot 100 is a milestone in any artist’s career.
As Billboard ’s flagship songs chart, earning even one entry often requires a combination of widespread popularity, audience demand and the right momentum at the right time.
The Hot 100 ranks songs based on a blend of U.S. streaming activity (official audio and official video), radio airplay and sales data.
Sales include purchases of physical singles and digital tracks from full-service digital retailers, while digital singles sold through direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites are excluded from chart calculations.
Since the chart launched on Aug.
4, 1958, more than 8,000 artists have earned at least one Hot 100 entry.
Of those, only 25 acts have reached the elite 100-hit milestone.
Elvis Presley, whose career predated the Hot 100’s launch , became the first artist to reach 100 career entries, achieving the milestone in May 1975 with “T-R-O-U-B-L-E.” He ultimately finished with 109 total Hot 100 hits and held the all-time entries record for decades.
That mark was surpassed in 2011 by the Glee cast, which expanded to a record 207 entries before being overtaken by Drake in 2020, when “Oprah’s Bank Account” earned him his 208th career entry.
Drake now leads all artists with 407 total Hot 100 entries in his career (through the chart dated Oct.
24, 2026) and remains the only act in history to reach 400 (or even 300) songs.
Only three others have crossed the 200-entry threshold: Taylor Swift (281), Future (246) and the Glee cast (207).
Three artists joined the 100-hit club in 2023.
YoungBoy Never Broke Again became the youngest artist ever to achieve the feat , reaching the mark at age 23 in May.
