By Rob Copsey April on BBC Radio 1Xtra marks MC Month; and to celebrate, the station has exclusively revealed the UK's Official Top 100 Hip-Hop Songs of all time. The Top 100 is, of course, based on Official Charts Company data, combining sales (physical and download) and streaming equivalent sales. At Number 1 is none other than Drake's mammoth single One Dance, which spent a whopping 15 weeks at Number 1 in 2016. With combined chart sales of 2.1 million, the track bests second place I'll Be Missing You by Puff Daddy ft Faith Evans by some 400,000 equivalent units. The highest placing Number 2 hit is in third - Eminem and Rihanna's huge track Love The Way You Lie. This chart really is all about when tornadoes meet volcanoes with big tracks such as the Fugees' Killing Me Softly sitting back-to-back with Coolio's Gangsta's Paradise. Elsewhere names such as Run DMC, Jay Z, Nelly, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Kanye West and Outkast feature on the amazing list. Luckily for everyone out there, you will be able to hear the UK's Official Top 100 Hip-Hop Songs in full once again very soon on BBC iPlayer.

QUOTE(JCM20 @ Apr 17 2017, 10:19 PM) I've said it before and I'll say it again: Drake is a pop singer, not a rapper. He's both a singer and a rapper, and he makes music of many genres. The majority of his music is hip-hop, most of his hits have been the more pop / R&B / dancehall ones though.

Some estimates: Eminem ft. Rihanna “Love The Way You Lie” 1.45 million (~1.3 million paid-for sales; 15 million streams) Eminem “Lose Yourself” 1.4 million The Fugees “Killing Me Softly” (officially 1,268,157 up to Nov 2002) Coolio “Gangsta's Paradise” (officially 1,246,306 up to Nov 2002 - although weirdly only certified 2X Platinum in 2014). Both probably around 1.42-1.43 million? Drake ft. Rihanna “Too Good” 1.087 million

I think the definition of Hip Hop was stretched somewhat going by some of the songs... Not sure how Where is the Love was excluded when Shut Up was included (Black Eyed Peas)?

Fingers crossed the latter can go on to be a million seller.

I remember when Outkast "Hey Ya!" was released and that was a time of really crappy single sales before downloads were included in the charts. And now thanks to downloads and recently streaming, "Hey Ya!" could become a deserved million seller on chart sales.

They must be considering Nicki Minaj to not be a hip-hop artist for some reason. (Although actually having said that, BEP having one song on there while several higher sellers aren't there goes against that theory. In any case, it's clearly a massively inconsistent list, there's no way it makes sense to include 'One Dance' but not 'Starships').
