well, a couple, anyway. \u00a0Good\u00a0old Justin Bieber reliably charts high these days. \u00a0Lil Wayne\u00a0also gets his first number one (his previous best was number 3, which he&#8217;s\u00a0reached as a guest a couple of times). \u00a0 As for the other two, Chance\u00a0the Rapper has\u00a0had a couple of guest appearances before, reaching number 5 with Snakehips on &#8220;All My Friends&#8221; two years ago. \u00a0And Quavo was\u00a0a guest on one of the Drake album tracks that swamped the chart a little while back.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s pretty inane, but there is\u00a0something pleasingly minimal about the\u00a0track. \u00a0The video, though, is the sort of thing that&#8217;s so generic that you wonder what the pitch looked like. \u00a0&#8220;You know that thing everyone does? \u00a0That. \u00a0Oh, and there&#8217;s a woman on a horse.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/kJQP7kiw5Fk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>4. \u00a0Luis Fonsi &amp;

overtakes it. \u00a0Of course,\u00a0the version getting all the airplay\u00a0has Justin Bieber on it,\u00a0so that&#8217;s\u00a0<em>effectively<\/em> two Justin Bieber tracks in the top 5 &#8211; but\u00a0he&#8217;s not\u00a0officially credited because he&#8217;s only\u00a0on the remix. \u00a0The midweeks have this going to\u00a0number one, but they&#8217;ve been pretty unreliable in the streaming era.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/CTFtOOh47oo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>12. \u00a0French Montana featuring Swae Lee &#8211;
