Love him or loathe him, Kanye West‘s impact on music’s history books over his 20-year career is undeniable.

One of the top 5 best-selling singles artists of all time (160.5 million in the U.S. alone), the 46-year-old also sits in sits in Hot 100 record books for being one of only 5 acts in its 65-year history to own over 150 entries (157 to be exact).

That figure was hoisted to its current height thanks to 16 tunes found aboard his Ty Dolla $ign-assisted latest album, ‘Vultures 1,‘  which not only placed every one of its songs on the all-genre chart but even landed two in the top 10.

Elsewhere in Billboard, the joint effort opened atop the Billboard 200 to historic measure.

Marking the 11th time of his career he’s premiered at the chart’s summit, he extends his record for most consecutive debuts (among studio albums).  When all chart-toppers are considered, Taylor Swift reigns with 13 consecutive #1 debuts (including studio albums and re-records).

Look below to see who joins West and $ign atop the current Billboard 200.
