FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 35 YEARS, NO RAP SONGS HIT TOP 40 ON BILLBOARD’S HOT 100
Yes, you’ve read that correctly. There are no rap songs listed in the Top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100.
This has not occurred since 1990, when Cold Chillin’ Records artist Biz Markie reached No. 29 in February 1990 with “Just a Friend.” That placement marked the beginning of a successful streak of a rap song staying in the Top 40 for 35 years, eight months, and three weeks.
