Rihanna roars in at No. 9 on the Hot 100 with Anti lead single "Work" (featuring Drake) -- her 27th top 10 hit, and Drake's 15th. She now ties Mariah Carey, Janet Jackson and Elton John for the fifth-most top 10s in the Hot 100's history. (Madonna leads with 38.) “Work” is Rihanna’s milestone 50th Hot 100 hit.

"Work" debuts at No. 1 on Digital Songs (126,000 sold in its first week; the song sold that sum in just more than a day of the tracking week ending Jan. 28, as, again, it was commercially released at 9 a.m. ET on Jan. 27), marking Rihanna's record-extending 14th No. 1 on the sales chart. "Work" also launches at No. 27 on Radio Songs (44 million in just more than four days of availability), marking her highest career debut on the airplay ranking, and drew 2.2 million streams (in just more than a day, as the Digital Songs and Streaming Songs tracking week runs Friday-Sunday; Radio Songs covers Monday-Sunday each week).

"Work" crashes in at No. 1 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, landing Rihanna her fifth chart-topper on the list and Drake his 14th.

Rihanna previously hit No. 1 with "FourFiveSeconds" (in 2015, with Kanye West and Paul McCartney), "The Monster" (2013; Eminem featuring Rihanna), "Diamonds" (2012) and "Take a Bow" (2008). "Work" is her second single to debut at No. 1, and her first as a lead act, following "The Monster."

The No. 1 debut of "Work" is driven by its handsome sales and airplay start. It enters at No. 1 R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Songs and No. 15 on R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay (her highest debut ever).

"Work" also logs Rihanna her 16th top 10 effort on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. She first visited the region with "Umbrella," which peaked at No. 4 on July 14, 2007.
