Drake continues to prove his versatility and staying power in the music industry with a new milestone: his first No. 1 single on the Billboard TikTok Top 50 chart. This achievement comes alongside his longtime collaborator Lil Wayne, as their 2011 hit “She Will” claims the top spot.
Despite facing some challenges in 2024, including a public rivalry with Kendrick Lamar that was widely seen as a loss for Drake, the rapper is making a strong return with his upcoming album Some Sexy Songs 4 U.
The album promises an R&B-driven collection of tracks, and this latest success is a testament to Drake’s adaptability in the evolving music landscape.
“She Will,” a track from Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter IV, is proving to be a strong contender in the current social media-driven music scene. The song debuted at No. 4 last week and quickly climbed to the top spot, resonating with a massive audience on TikTok—a platform that has become a critical space for both new artists and established stars to engage with fans.
Drake and Lil Wayne’s triumph on the TikTok Billboard chart further solidifies their long-standing influence in the music industry, even as they navigate the evolving dynamics of music consumption and promotion.
This is the latest in a series of hits for both artists, with Drake now claiming five top 10 hits on the TikTok chart throughout his career. However, “She Will” marks the first time he has topped the list.
Wayne, too, has seen success on this chart, with “She Will” bringing him his second top 10 hit. Previously, his track “Sticky” reached No. 9 on the TikTok chart, making Wayne’s presence on the platform even more notable.
With both artists poised for more success, it seems like “She Will” may not just be a nostalgic hit but also a reminder of the enduring influence of their collaboration.
