Drake has officially rewritten the record books after simultaneously debuting ICEMAN, HABIBTI, and MAID OF HONOUR at Nos. 1, 2, and 3 on the Billboard 200 chart dated May 30. This historic feat marks the first time an artist has occupied the top three spots on the Billboard 200 simultaneously since the chart adopted its weekly format in 1956. Furthermore, Drake becomes the first artist ever to debut at the top three positions at the same time.
ICEMAN opened atop the chart with 463,000 equivalent album units, securing Drake his 15th No. 1 album. This milestone allows him to surpass Jay-Z for the most Billboard 200 chart-toppers among solo male and R&B/hip-hop artists. He now ties Taylor Swift for the most No. 1 albums among solo acts, trailing only The Beatles, who hold the record with 19.
The album also achieved the largest R&B/hip-hop debut of 2026, driven by over 462 million on-demand streams across its 18 tracks. Meanwhile, HABIBTI debuted at No. 2 with 114,000 units, and MAID OF HONOUR followed closely at No. 3 with 110,000 units. Both projects were surprise releases, first announced during Drake’s May 14 livestream. This unprecedented chart dominance further cements his status as one of the most commercially successful artists in music history.
