Beyoncé Becomes First Female Artist To Chart 12 Tracks On The Hot 100 Simultaneously

(AllHipHop News) R&B/Pop superstar Beyoncé adds another major career milestone to her résumé. The Houston bred singer is now the first female artist to chart 12 or more songs on Billboard‘s Hot 100 at the same time.

The publication revealed Bey accomplished the feat this week when all 12 of her songs from Lemonade earned a spot on the tally. She surpassed Taylor Swift’s 11 tracks on the Hot 100 when 2010’s Speak Now was released. The overall record holder is Justin Bieber with 17 songs from Purpose in 2015.

“Formation” is currently Beyoncé’s highest charting record at #10. “Sorry” (11) and “Hold Up” (13) sit right outside the Top 10. All 12 Lemonade songs appear on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart as well.

Lemonade was released on April 23 exclusively via Tidal before seeing a wide commercial release the following day. The “visual album” opened at #1 on the Billboard 200 with 653,000 equivalent album units.
