Chart Storm: Central Cee Dominates Rap, Drake Extends His Reign!

Drake has extended his illustrious chart-topping legacy with his collaboration with Central Cee, “Which One,” securing his 43rd No. 1 on Billboard’s Rhythmic Airplay chart. This achievement, dated October 11, marks his fourth consecutive No. 1 on the list in 2025, a streak that equals his longest ever. The previous No. 1s in this impressive run include “Nokia” (two weeks in May), “Somebody Loves Me” with PARTYNEXTDOOR and Cash Cobain (one week in July), and “What Did I Miss?” (three weeks starting in August).
Drake’s 43rd Rhythmic Airplay No. 1 further solidifies his record for the most toppers in the chart's 33-year history, significantly distancing him from other artists like Rihanna (17 No. 1s) and The Weeknd (16 No. 1s). This also marks his fourth nonconsecutive calendar year with at least four No. 1s, and his first with four or more No. 1s as a lead act since 2016. His previous four-in-a-row streak between 2018 and 2019 largely featured him as a guest artist on tracks like Bad Bunny’s “MIA” and Meek Mill’s “Going Bad.”
For Central Cee, “Which One” is a landmark achievement, earning him his first No. 1 on the Rhythmic Airplay chart in his eighth appearance. His prior best was a No. 2 peak with “Band4Band” in 2024. Furthermore, “Which One” also claimed the top spot on the Rap Airplay chart, marking Central Cee’s first ruler and Drake’s record-extending 45th. This is Drake's second consecutive No. 1 on Rap Airplay, following “What Did I Miss?” which reigned for three weeks.
The song's success extends beyond these charts, as “Which One” has also climbed to No. 10 on Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay and No. 13 on R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay. It represents Drake’s chart-leading 91st top 10 on the former chart and Central Cee’s second. Debuting at No. 23 on the all-format Billboard Hot 100 on August 9, “Which One” currently sits at No. 87, having garnered 16.5 million radio audience impressions and 2.4 million official U.S. streams in the week ending October 2, according to Luminate. The track is anticipated to be featured on Drake’s upcoming ninth studio album, titled "Iceman," though an official release date has yet to be announced. All Billboard charts dated October 11 will be fully updated on Billboard.com on October 7.
