In only its second week on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, Drake's "Started from the Bottom" shoots 19-3 to become the rapper's 30th top 10 hit on the list. Only two other artists have posted 30 or more top 10s since the chart incorporated Nielsen data on Dec. 5, 1992: Lil Wayne with 34 and R. Kelly with 32.
Additionally, since Drake first cracked the top tier on the chart with "Best I Ever Had" on June 6, 2009, Lil Wayne trails him with only 19 top 10s in the timeframe. According to Nielsen SoundScan, "Started" sold 168,000 downloads last week, a 185% increase over the previous week's sales of 59,000.

YMCMB stay winning
And...here is the reaction of birdman and lil wayne the first time they heard SFTB:
Drake... he's just not normal when it comes to music. He's a fresh talent. He's not a replica. He don't duplicate. He's setting his own tone and his own everything with music," Birdman told MTV News of hearing "Started From the Bottom" for the first time. "I think this record's really something for him to be different...he's not a normal guy. He's one of the most talented, really on earth, to me when it comes to music. ... So to me I loved it, when [Lil Wayne and I] first heard it we were amazed." (MTV)
