From Witney Houston to Lil Nas X to Justin Bieber, several artists have broken the record for longevity on the Billboard Hot 100. Check out the Billboard 100 longevity records since 1992.

LiL Nas X grabs the crown in 2019

Lil Nas X moved to his third week and remains at the top of the U.S. charts with his song "Old town Road". This song has become the longest running song on the Billboard 100. With this song, the artist has definitely launched himself on the road to success. The youngster, unknown to the public a few months ago, has risen to the top with this special track that is a mixture of trap and country.

Jay-Z has just turned the tables

With his track "Mood Eva" and thanks to the collaboration of his wife Beyoncé and some singers, Jay-Z is propelled to the 90th place of the chart this week. Created more than 60 years ago, the Hot 100 has recorded 5 artists with more than 100 entries on the chart. It's important to note that Jay-Z has already topped the chart four times with the song "Heartbreaker" which he performed in 1999 as a duet with Mariah Carey. So it's not so surprising to see him at the top again.
