Not only is Lil Nas X breaking records on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart with “Old Town Road” (the song just notched its 19th week atop the chart this week), he’s also breaking all-time records on both the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and the Billboard Hot Rap Songs charts.

According to Billboard’s Aug. 12 chart report, “Old Town Road” has now been atop the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Rap Songs charts for 19 weeks. Nas X surpassed previous Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs record holder Drake, whose 2016 song “One Dance” featuring WizKid and Kyla reigned at No. 1 for 18 weeks.

Meanwhile, on the Hop Rap Songs chart, the Georgia rapper exceeded previous 18-week record-holders Missy Elliott for 1999’s “Hot Boys” (featuring Nas, Eve and Q-Tip), Iggy Azalea for 2014’s “Fancy” (featuring Charli XCX), and Drake for his 2015 single “Hotline Bling.”

Dominating the charts isn't easy, but Nas X has made it seem that way. He's kept himself in the conversation by releasing a slew of "Old Town Road" remixes featuring other artists. You can check them all out on XXL's list of "Old Town Road" remixes.
