Beyonce‘s latest studio album, ‘Cowboy Carter,’ may have made headlines for making her the first artist in history to see her first 8 albums debut at #1 on the Billboard 200, but its history-making strides certainly don’t stop there.

In addition to topping the Country Album charts (a first for any Black woman), 23 of the project’s 27 tracks landed on the Hot 100 – making the 42-year-old the first female singer of color to have over 100 career hits on the Hot 100.

And while those accomplishments are plenty to celebrate, ‘Cowboy’ also helped Queen Bey gallop across a unique historic finish line – surpassing Pop Queen Janet Jackson in the process.

Before Sunday (April 7), Jackson and Bey were tied for most #1 hits among Black women in the nearly 80-year history of Billboard’s all-genre album chart (7 each).

With the addition of ‘Cowboy,’ the latter trots ahead with her 8th chart championship.

Among all women, Bey is now fourth place on the all-time list behind Taylor Swift (13), Barbra Streisand (11), and Queen of Pop Madonna (9).

Look below to see who joins Bey on this week’s updated Chart Check: Billboard 200.
