Kanye West has officially racked up more hits on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 than Michael Jackson. The 39-year-old will now contend with fellow music legends and peers Marvin Gaye (41), Chris Brown (42), James Brown (44), Jay Z (45), Stevie Wonder (46), Drake (53), Elton John (57) and Lil Wayne (69). If the rapper does release his rumored collaboration album with Drake, he will surely get a few extra top 40 hits, but that would mean Drake would continue to move up the list as well.
