\n\t\t\tTrending on Billboard\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
As any artist knows, it\u2019s a tough task to score a top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. The feat usually requires some blend of the following ingredients: a strong song, a charismatic artist, aggressive promotion efforts, a devoted fan base; and, more recently, a viral live performance, meme or other stroke of luck. And that\u2019s just to do it once<\/em>. To rise (and stay) at the top of the game, demands a consistency that few artists ever achieve. But when artists lock onto that golden combination, they can accomplish a string of hits in rapid succession.<\/p>\n
To celebrate those artists, Billboard<\/em> compiled a roll call of artists who cemented their pop dominance by landing five or more top 10 hits from a single album. Not only does such a feat rely on the same qualities listed above, but either recreating those moments over an extensive period of months, or in recent years, capitalize on streaming\u2019s reshaping of the industry to stack several top 10s upon a big album\u2019s arrival.<\/p>\n
It should come as little surprise, then, that the first album to house five top 10s was Michael Jackson\u2019s Thriller<\/em>, the best-selling album of all time. At the time, Jackson set the benchmark of seven top 10s from one album \u2013 a feat later equaled by Bruce Springsteen\u2019s Born in the USA<\/em> (1984-85), Janet Jackson\u2019s Rhythm Nation 1814<\/em> (1989-91) and Drake\u2019s Scorpion<\/em> (2018). The record then quickly changed hands multiple times: Drake\u2019s Certified Lover Boy<\/em>\u00a0scored nine top 10 successes in 2021, but was soon eclipsed by Taylor Swift\u2019s 2022 album Midnights, <\/em>which upped the record to 10. Swift repeated the perfect 10 with her 2024 release,\u00a0The Tortured Poets Department,\u00a0<\/em>and 2025\u2019s\u00a0The Life of a Showgirl,\u00a0<\/em>while Drake joined the club with 2026\u2019s\u00a0ICEMAN<\/em>.<\/p>\n
Check out our rundown of albums that have produced five or more top 10 hits on the Hot 100. Drake owns the most projects on the list, with four different albums \u2013 while Janet Jackson, Michael Jackson, Taylor Swift and Morgan Wallen are the only other acts with multiple appearances. The who\u2019s-who covers a cross-section of genres, including pop, rock, R&B and hip-hop and includes superstars such as Bon Jovi, Whitney Houston and Katy Perry.<\/p>\n
(Note: This list only covers original editions, though three albums \u2013 Usher\u2019s Confessions<\/em>, Rihanna\u2019s Good Girl Gone Bad<\/em> and Taylor Swift\u2019s Fearless<\/em> \u2013 would qualify if expanded to deluxe versions and reissues.)<\/p>\n

Jackson had already become the first solo artist to earn four Hot 100 top 10s from an album with Off the Wall, but follow-up Thriller nearly doubled its output. Jackson\u2019s magnum opus landed a groundbreaking seven top 10s during its 1982-84 heyday, including two No. 1 classics.<\/p>\n
Former Commodores frontman Lionel Richie joined the club with his second solo release. Like Thriller, Can\u2019t Slow Down\u2019s hit-making prowess and chart longevity helped it score the album of the year prize at the Grammy Awards.<\/p>\n

The Boss\u2019 seminal album propelled him to mid-\u201980s chart domination, and introduced us to Courteney Cox in the \u201cDancing in the Dark\u201d video. Interestingly,\u00a0despite its hit resume, Born in the U.S.A. is one of only two albums to spark five top 10s without a No. 1 single.)<\/p>\n

After two essentially unheralded albums, Jackson\u2019s new sound, courtesy of producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, helped her 1986 breakthrough rally a parade of Hot 100 hits, including the first of 10 career No. 1s.<\/p>\n

The Material Girl\u2019s third album continued her \u201980s reign, becoming her first album to score multiple chart-toppers. The five top 10s from True Blue also helped push Madonna to her record 38 career Hot 100 top 10s.<\/p>\n
After taking a brief hiatus for each member to pursue individual projects, Genesis reunited for Invisible Touch. Its five top 10s from this album made the British rockers the first group to achieve the feat.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Top 10s:<\/strong> \u201cInvisible Touch,\u201d No. 1 (one week); \u201cThrowing It All Away,\u201d No. 4; \u201cLand of Confusion,\u201d No. 4; \u201cTonight, Tonight, Tonight,\u201d No. 3; \u201cIn Too Deep,\u201d No. 3<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n

Huey Lewis & the News\u2019 appropriately titled fourth album followed their first No. 1 hit, \u201cThe Power of Love,\u201d from Back to the Future. Fore! scored the group two more chart-toppers, their last No. 1 hits.<\/p>\n

Leave it to Michael\u00a0Jacksonl to outdo himself. Not only did Bad make Jackson the first artist to post two albums with at least five top 10s each, but the set also launched a then-unprecedented five No. 1 singles, the only album to reach the vaunted mark until 2011.<\/p>\n

After scoring three Hot 100 No. 1s with her debut LP, Houston\u2019s sophomore set upped the ante by yielding four chart-toppers.

While the boy band\u2019s 1986 self-titled debut album went largely unnoticed (at first), sophomore album Hangin\u2019 Tough\u00a0soared, as the Boston quintet became the first teen act to earn five Hot 100 top 10 hits from an album. (The act\u2019s\u00a0debut, meanwhile, rebounded to reach No. 25 on the Billboard 200 in 1989.)<\/p>\n

Rockers Bon Jovi followed the success of Slippery When Wet with this album, whose title serves as a tribute to their home state. Like its predecessor, New Jersey contained two tickets to No. 1 on the Hot 100, in \u201cBad Medicine\u201d and \u201cI\u2019ll Be There for You.\u201d<\/p>\n

The first breakout star of R&B group New Edition surpassed his former group\u2019s top 10 tally (four, in 1984-97) with a single album. And, thus, before their marriage in 1992-2006, Brown and Whitney Houston joined in another union: they\u2019re both among the elite acts with at least five Hot 100 top 10s from an album.<\/p>\n

The debut album from the former Laker Girl and future American Idol judge struggled at first, as its first two singles missed the Hot 100\u2019s top 40. But, \u201cStraight Up\u201d sent her doing just that on the chart. Following Houston, Abdul became the second female artist to generate four No. 1 singles from one album.<\/p>\n

Before an infamous lip-sync scandal revealed that Milli Vanilli never sang on its album, duo Fabrice Morvan and Rob Pilatus scored five hit singles. Girl\u2019s success led to a best new artist Grammy, although it was later revoked after the controversy.<\/p>\n

After Janet\u2019s fourth album tied the record of seven top 10s set by brother Michael and Bruce Springsteen, she surpassed them: Each of this set\u2019s singles reached the top five, an achievement still unmatched. She may have extended her record to eight, as \u201cState of the World\u201d was a top five airplay hit in 1991, but the song was never released as a commercially\u00a0available single and was therefore ineligible to chart on the Hot 100 under chart rules at the time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Top 10s:<\/strong> \u201cMiss You Much,\u201d No. 1 (four weeks); \u201cRhythm Nation,\u201d No. 2; \u201cEscapade,\u201d No. 1 (three weeks); \u201cAlright,\u201d No. 4; \u201cCome Back to Me,\u201d No. 2; \u201cBlack Cat,\u201d No. 1 (one week); \u201cLove Will Never Do (Without You),\u201d No. 1 (one week)<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n
For her next move, Janet pulled a hat trick. Six top 10s from janet. made the pop\/R&B superstar the first act to notch five or more top 10 hits from three albums. Of her last 19 Hot 100 entries over the three sets, only one (\u201cThe Pleasure Principle\u201d) missed the top 10 (and it still rose to No. 14).<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n

It\u2019s fitting that the soundtrack to a film rooted in sisterhood required multiple women to gather a quintet of top 10 hits. Houston, in her first release since 1992\u2019s The Bodyguard, provided two (one with CeCe Winans), while Brandy, Mary J. Blige and Toni Braxton added one each. (The album\u2019s \u201cLet It Flow\u201d by Braxton was originally included on the soundtrack and later released as a double-sided single with \u201cYou\u2019re Makin\u2019 Me High,\u201d from Braxton\u2019s album Secrets.)<\/p>\n

Fergie\u2019s solo success must have sparked magic in the Black Eyed Peas camp, as the group\u2019s next project equaled her solo run of five top 10s. \u201cBoom Boom Pow\u201d and \u201cI Gotta Feeling\u201d locked up the No. 1 on the Hot 100 for 12 and 14 weeks, respectively, making the Peas\u2019 the first act to command the top slot for 26 straight weeks, or half of 2009.<\/p>\n
Talk about a dream come true. For 23 years, no artist had matched Michael Jackson\u2019s record of five No. 1s from a single album (Bad). Until Katy Perry. With \u201cLast Friday Night (T.G.I.F.),\u201d Teenage Dream became the first set by a female to house five chart-topping hits. (The set\u2019s deluxe release edition, Teenage Dream: The Complete Confection, launched two more top 10s: \u201cPart of Me\u201d and \u201cWide Awake.\u201d)<\/p>\n
Drake\u2019s Scorpion<\/em> became only the fourth album \u2013 and first in 27 years \u2013 to produce seven Hot 100 top 10s. Upon its arrival, the set\u2019s record-breaking streaming start of 745.9 million on-demand audio streams of its songs in its debut week, according to Nielsen Music, spurred five new top 10s to join two others already in the tier. With seven tracks in the top 10 at once, Drake unseated The Beatles as the act with the most simultaneous top 10 hits, a record the Fab Four had held since 1964.<\/p>\n

As with Drake, streaming giant Post Malone gained entry\u00a0into the five top-10s club with his third album, Hollywood\u2019s Bleeding<\/em>. Beyond the wild streaming success almost expected of the album, the tracklist capitalizes on an array of sounds: It\u00a0includes his pop and hip-hop fare, but also expanded his alternative and rock palate through such hits as \u201cAllergic\u201d and \u201cTake What You Want,\u201d the latter of which features Ozzy Osbourne, as well as Travis Scott.<\/p>\n

Chicago rapper\/singer Juice WRLD etched his name on this landmark list as fans rallied around the artist\u2019s first posthomous release after his death in December 2019.

A three-year wait between studio albums didn\u2019t weaken any enthusiasm among the rapper\u2019s dedicated base, who rallied after the album was announced with just a couple weeks\u2019 notice, and scored his sixth No. 1 set as a result.<\/p>\n

Following Scorpion<\/em> and its seven top 10s would be a tough task for any artist, but leave it to Drake to outdo his own success. Despite several false stars, his 2021 set only re\u2026certified his streaming dominance, leading a parade of songs onto the Hot 100, including nine of the chart\u2019s top 10 simultaneously.<\/p>\n

Taylor Swift became only the second woman (after Janet Jackson) to join the 5+ club with multiple albums thanks to her 2022 album,\u00a0Midnights<\/em>. The blockbuster, though, set new bars for every artist: With 10 top 10s, it reset the record for the most top 10 Hot 100 hits from any album, and \u2013 even more \u2013 all 10 hits occurred in the same week, the first Hot 100 top 10 shutout in history.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Top 10s:\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cAnti-Hero\u201d (No. 1, eight weeks), \u201cLavender Haze\u201d (No. 2), \u201cKarma,\u201d featuring Ice Spice (No. 2), \u201cMaroon\u201d (No. 3), \u201cSnow by the Beach\u201d (No. 4), \u201cMidnight Rain\u201d (No. 5), \u201cBejeweled\u201d (No. 6), \u201cQuestion\u2026?\u201d (No. 7), \u201cYou\u2019re on Your Own, Kid\u201d (No. 8), \u201cVigilante Shit\u201d (No. 10)<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n
A top 10 collaboration in 2021 (\u201cKnife Talk\u201d) and a Hot 100 champ the following year (\u201cJimmy Cooks\u201d) foretold the collective might of Drake and 21 Savage ahead of the pair\u2019s joint album,\u00a0Her Loss<\/em>. The streaming juggernaut \u2013 as is the case with virtually every Drake LP \u2013 sparked eight total top 10s: seven for the pair together and another standalone success (\u201cBackOutsideBoyz\u201d) for Drake.<\/p>\n

After his 2021 album,\u00a0Dangerous: The Double Album,\u00a0<\/em>went on a historic tear \u2013 breaking the record for the most weeks at No. 1 on the Top Country Albums chart and earning the second-most top 10 weeks on the Billboard 200 as just two highlights \u2013 his follow-up, One Thing at a Time<\/em>, was always going to be an event. It indeed expanded the country superstar\u2019s reign, with \u201cLast Night\u201d a standout as a rare country Hot 100 champ in the 21st century.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Top 10s:\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cLast Night\u201d (No. 1, 16 weeks), \u201cYou Proof\u201d (No. 5), \u201cDon\u2019t Think Jesus\u201d (No. 7), \u201cThought You Should Know\u201d (No. 7), \u201cThinkin\u2019 Bout Me\u201d (No. 9), \u201cOne Thing at a Time\u201d (No. 10)<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n

After SZA\u2019s meteoric Ctrl\u00a0<\/em>breakthrough, the buzz for a follow-up grew each passing year, with flickers of hope from singles such as \u201cGood Days\u201d and \u201cI Hate U\u201d only swelling anticipation. When the long-awaited
