That Grape Juice officially honored this milestone, which marked a watershed moment in Brown’s legendary career.

This week, the multi-talented musician added two new songs to his amazing catalog: ‘Sensational,’ the second single from his album ’11:11,’ and ‘IDGAF,’ a collaboration with Tee Grizzley and Mariah the Scientist. These charting hits propelled Brown into an elite club that included icons like Stevie Wonder, Madonna, Elvis Presley, and Elton John, all of whom have charted a song for two decades straight.

Brown has cemented his place in music history as the first musician of the twenty-first century to accomplish this incredible feat.

Not only does this achievement demonstrate Brown’s lasting relevance and popularity in the ever-changing music industry, but it also confirms his status as the most-awarded male vocalist in the Hot 100 chart’s 65-year history. Chris Brown’s chart success over the last two decades demonstrates his staying power and unwavering influence in the music industry.

Congratulations are surely for this chart-topping virtuoso, who continues to make history with each new entry on the Billboard Hot 100.
