PEAK MUSIC 2018

 

This is a series that will attempt to Sport(ify) music by creating a 5 member All-Pro/All League/All Star team (Sort of like the NBA first team all-stars) for each year in Music starting with 1964. It will rely heavily on Top 20 Hits from the year but also take into account Concert Tours, Music awards, Music Videos (MTV Crowd-You Tube), TV, Films, Pop Culture etc….. 

2018

According to Wikipedia Drake had 13 top ten hits (FROM what I thought I could figure was that he had 8) but we are going with Wikipedia exclusively starting in 2020 – Obviously a sizable portion of these songs are collaborations


Drake 8 top 10 hits – 3 number ones including NICE FOR WHAT


Lil Wayne (Who?*) – 4 top ten hits


Ariana Grande – 3 top ten hits and 1 number one including THANK YOU NEXT


Camilla Cabello  - 2 top ten hits 1 number one including HAVANNA which came out in late 2017


Eminem – 3 top ten hits (I don’t remember any of these)

 

*Oh wait is Lil Wayne the guy with the Dreads.
