Drake is king of the charts - again
Updated | By Tamlyn Canham
Drake has spent the most weeks at number one since 2010 than any other male artist in America.
Drake continues to dominate music charts around the world.
The Canadian rapper's latest hit, 'Nice for What', spent its second week at number one on the Billboard Hot 100.
The song's success means the Grammy Award-winner is now the only male artist to spend 33 weeks on top of the chart since 2010.
Bruno Mars previously held the title, with his songs spending 32 weeks at number one.
'Nice For What' has been described as a women's empowerment anthem.
A-list stars such as Tracee Ellis Ross, Zoe Saldana, Olivia Wilde, and 'Black Panther' star Letitia Wright feature in the track's video.

'God's Plan' is also a chart-topping success in South Africa. It's currently at number 20 on the Coca-Cola Top 40.
