Drake - Variety500 - Top 500 Entertainment Business Leaders
It was another banner year for this seemingly indefatigable Canadian superstar. In October, Drake scored his 13th No. 1 in the U.S. when “For All the Dogs” debuted atop the Billboard 200, with all 23 of its tracks debuting in the top 50 of the singles chart (and occupying 7 of the 10 top spots) — tying him with Michael Jackson for the most No. 1 singles among solo male artists with 13, and fourth among all acts. Then just as he was finishing up his sold-out “It’s A Blur” North American Arena tour, he surprised fans weeks later with a new EP, which drove “Dogs” back up to No. 1. In the fall, Drake announced a break due to stomach problems, but he must have recovered even faster than he drops music, as another leg of the “It’s All a Blur” tour kicks off in January, this time with J. Cole.
