Taylor Swift is breaking records left and right with her new album The Tortured Poets Department, which, in a delightful surprise for Swifties, actually turned out to be a double album called The Anthology. Now, according to the Billboard Hot 100, every song on that album has appeared on the chart. With the inclusion of her runaway hit from 2019, “Cruel Summer,” her total comes to 32 songs on the Hot 100 in a week.

Taylor Swift Holds the Record for the Most Songs on the Hot 100 in a Week for Women
While Taylor Swift doesn’t hold the overall record for most songs on the Hot 100 in a week—this goes to Morgan Wallen, who charted 36 songs in a week last year—she does hold the current record for women in a single week.
However, she did chart 26 songs in the Top 40, beating out Drake’s record of 22 when his album For All The Dogs debuted last year. Overall, Swift now has 263 Hot 100 entries in her career. She falls just behind Drake who has 330 career entries.
Swift has set multiple sales records as well, with The Tortured Poets Department selling 2.61 million units in its debut week. She is beat only by Adele’s 25, which sold 3.48 million units in 2015. Additionally, this is Swift’s 14th No. 1 album on the Billboard 200. She ties Jay-Z in that record, but is beat only by The Beatles, who have 19.
