In other notable Wayne news, he has extended a two-decade-plus Billboard chart streak, courtesy of his appearance on the new album from Tyler, The Creator.
LilWayneHQ spotted the fact that Tyler’s “Sticky” breaking into the Hot 100 last week means that Wayne has had an appearance on the Billboard singles chart every year from 2004 to the present — 21 years.
The streak began with two 2004 tracks, “Go DJ” and Destiny’s Child‘s “Soldier,” the latter of which featured guest appearances from both Weezy and T.I.
“Sticky” marks the third time Tyler and Wayne have made the chart with a collaboration. The first was The Game‘s “Martians Vs Goblins” in 2011, and the second was “Hot Wind Blows,” from Tyler’s 2021 project Call Me If You Get Lost.
“Sticky” wasn’t the only chart success Tyler’s had recently.
His new album Chromakopiahas not only landed him at the top of the Billboard album chart, it’s also given him something he’s never had before: top 10 singles.
Two songs from the project, “St. Chroma” and “Noid,” made it to the top 10 of Billboard’s Hot 100 singles chart dated November 9. The former, which features Daniel Caesar, debuted at No. 7. “Noid” made a huge leap up the chart, from No. 43 last week to No. 10.
These are the first top 10 singles of Tyler’s career. His previous highest-charting single was 2019’s “Earfquake,” which topped out at No. 13.
As for the album chart, Chromakopia debuted at the top after earning 299,500 album equivalent units, according to Billboard.
Of that figure, 157,000 came from on-demand streams (which totaled 212.55 million), while album sales accounted for 142,000. The remaining 500 was from TEA (track equivalent album) units.
