Throughout music history, there have been plenty of record-breaking songs, albums, and acts.

Keep scrolling to see the elite tier of singles artists, listed from least to most No. 1 hits.

Mars earned his 10th No. 1 single — and his first song to debut at No. 1 — in January 2026 with "I Just Might."

In 1963, at just 13 years old, Stevie Wonder earned his first No. 1 song with "Fingertips." He was the youngest artist ever to top the chart.

Janet Jackson's reign on the Hot 100 began with 1986's "When I Think of You," which topped the chart when she was 20 years old.

Jackson is the rare artist to claim the No. 1 spot in three different decades, like Stevie Wonder.

Whitney Houston had no shortage of iconic songs, but she earned her first No. 1 with "Saving All My Love for You" in 1985. That same year, she also put "How Will I Know" in the top spot.

Madonna has been topping the charts for decades, and it all began with "Like a Virgin" in 1984.

The so-called "Queen of Pop" added to her collection with "Who's That Girl" in 1987, "Like a Prayer" in 1989, "Vogue" and "Justify My Love" in 1990, "This Used to Be My Playground" in 1992, "Take a Bow" in 1994, and "Music" in 2000.

The Supremes are known as one of the best-selling girl groups of all time, earning 12 No. 1 hits in half as many years.

They continued to dominate the decade with a flood of hits: "I Hear a Symphony," also in 1965; "You Can't Hurry Love" and "You Keep Me Hangin' On" in 1966; "Love Is Here and Now You're Gone" and "The Happening" in 1967; "Love Child" in 1968; and "Someday We'll Be Together" in 1969.

Michael Jackson began appearing on the charts as a child with The Jackson 5, but after he struck out on his own, the so-called "King of Pop" racked up more hits than any solo artist at the time.
