Boyz II Men's"End of the Road" and Brandy and Monica's"The Boy Is Mine," previously achieved the same feat of 13 weeks at No. 1.In addition, Lil Nas X's new EP, 7, debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard album chart.
"Some of y'all already know, some of y'all don't care, some of y'all not gone fwm no more," he wrote in a post that concluded with a rainbow emoji. He followed up the post with a tweet saying he thought he'd"made it obvious."
