It's been a rough run for rap.
Travis Scott finally broke the genre's long streak without a number-one album when Utopia topped the charts three weeks ago. (It's remained at the top since.)
But there's another even longer streak that remains.
It's been a full year since a rap song hit number one on Billboard's Hot 100.
The latest non-rap song to hit number one is Oliver Anthony's "Rich Men North of Richmond."
This week, the previously unknown country singer becomes the first artist ever to snag a number one without any previous chart activity.
