Lil Child Earns His one hundredth Track On The Scorching 100, A Uncommon Achievement

Jack Harlow is the toast of this week’s Billboard Scorching 100 chart: It was revealed yesterday that “First Class” debuted within the No. 1 spot, making it the second chart-topper of his profession up to now. That stated, should you peek a bit previous the highest 10 entries of the present chart, it seems to be like Harlow’s No. 1 could not really be the week’s greatest accomplishment.

Lil Child debuted two songs on the Scorching 100 this week: “Proper On” at No. 13 and “In A Minute” at No. 14. That in itself is sweet however doesn’t look like an particularly big deal. Wanting on the massive image, although, it really is, as these songs are Child’s 99th and one hundredth to look on the chart.

This feat places Child in uncommon territory, as solely a handful of artists (12, counting him) have ever landed 100 or extra songs on the Scorching 100 of their profession: Drake (who has 260 entries on the chart), Glee (207), Lil Wayne (180), Taylor Swift (166), Kanye West (135), Future (132), Nicki Minaj (123), Elvis Presley (109), Chris Brown (107), Jay-Z (104), Justin Bieber (103), and now, Lil Child (100).

Additionally price noting is how early in his profession Child reached 100 entries: His first single was solely simply launched in 2017. The subsequent “youngest” (by way of when their first single was launched) artist on the record is Future, whose debut single arrived in 2011. He’s really the youngest (by way of precise age) solo artist to do it, too, however simply barely: When Bieber bought his one hundredth Scorching 100 tune on July 20, 2021, he was 27 years, 4 months, and 19 days outdated, which was the document on the time. When Child did it yesterday, he was 27 years, 4 months, and 15 days outdated, a mere 4 days youthful than Bieber was.
