Justin Bieber (left) and Drake (right) are tied with the most top ten hits in 2016, with five. Two of their respective songs became number-one hits during the year, with "Sorry" and "Love Yourself" from Bieber, and "Work" and "One Dance" by Drake.
Five songs which charted in the top ten during 2016 spent at least 20 total weeks in that region of the chart: Drake's "One Dance" (featuring Wizkid and Kyla); Justin Bieber's "Sorry" and "Love Yourself"; and The Chainsmokers' "Don't Let Me Down" (featuring Daya) and "Closer" (featuring Halsey). Since "Closer" spent 32 weeks in the top ten it was tied with "How Do I Live" by LeAnn Rimes for the most weeks in the top ten since the chart's inception in 1958. This record was broken in September 2017 when Ed Sheeran's "Shape Of You" got 33 weeks in the top 10. Both Bieber and Drake are tied with the most top-ten hits during the year, with five. Selena Gomez, Twenty One Pilots, The Chainsmokers and Rihanna follow them with three.
