Every Canadian Artist Who Topped the Billboard Hot 100

Drake lands his 14th No. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 this week as “Janice STFU” enters the chart (dated May 30) in the top spot. He is one of only five artists – and the only Canadian artist – to land 14 or more No. 1 hits. He trails The Beatles (England, 20) and Mariah Carey (United States, 19), and is tied with Rihanna (Barbados, 14) and Taylor Swift (U.S., 14).

This allows Drake to extend his lead on our list of Canadian artists who have topped the Hot 100, dating back to its launch in August 1958. He has had nearly as many No. 1 hits as his two closest Canadian rivals combined.

Paul Anka became the first Canadian artist to top the Hot 100, scoring in July 1959 with “Lonely Boy.” Anka’s U.S. hits predate the inception of the Hot 100. His 1957 breakthrough smash “Diana” topped Billboard ’s Best Sellers in Stores chart.

Percy Faith , who in 1960 became the second Canadian artist to top the Hot 100, also had hits that predated that chart. His “Delicado” and “The Song From Moulin Rouge (Where Is Your Heart)” were major hits in 1952-53.
