The song “Staying Alive,” which he collaborated on with DJ Khaled, became his 30th to make the Billboard Hot 100’s top five, breaking the previous record of The Beatles, which had stood for 55 years.
The Toronto native uploaded a picture of an empty dish with the caption “Just another celebration” along with a shrug emoji to his Stories.
A few weeks ago, Drake also made an appearance on Nicki Minaj’s Queen Radio, where he talked about his potential musical retirement.
“I’m not at that point where I even consider that being an option,” he said. “One of the best feelings I have in my life is completing a song or project. And by the way those things are painful as well. A lot of nerves, a lot of confidence wavering. But I feel like I’m reaching a new level of fun. I’ve reached a new level of comfortability where I want to try things. Like this last album, I put out something I wanted to do to challenge myself.”
