On Media Outlook News:  So it turns out  Drake ‘s winning a record 13 trophies at the   2017 Billboard Music Awards  was in no way coincidence. Yesterday (May 23), it was revealed that Drizzy has had a song on the   Billboard Hot 100 chart   for the last eight consecutive years, making him the first ever artist to do so. Drizzy’s “Best I Ever Had” earned him his first appearance on the Billboard Hot 100 chart on May 23, 2009, and as of yesterday (May 23), he’s maintained that streak, and quite easily at that. Looked at in another way, Drizzy’s been on the chart for almost exactly 3,000 days now. According to Billboard, he’s now been on the chart for 420 weeks. You read that right. During a career that sort of feels like it just started yesterday, 20 of Drake’s songs have landed in the top 10 portion of the Billboard Hot 100 Chart, which makes him one of only 18 artists accomplishing that distinction over the last 58 years. Drizzy’s got 154 Hot 100-charting singles in total.

On Media Outlook News:  Washington -  Attorney General Jeff Sessions did not disclose meetings he had last year with Russian officials when he applied for his security clearance, the Justice Department told CNN Wednesday. Sessions, who met with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak at least two times last year, didn't note those interactions on the form, which requires him to list "any contact" he or his family had with a "foreign government" or its "representatives" over the past seven years, officials said. The new information from the Justice Department is the latest example of Sessions failing to disclose contacts he had with Russian officials. He has come under withering criticism from Democrats following revelations that he did not disclose the same contacts with Kislyak during his Senate confirmation hearings earlier this year. Sessions initially listed a year's worth of meetings with foreign officials on the security clearance fo
