However, when Billboard put together their list that got everyone counting No. 1's in the 2000s, they made no specification that the artist had to be the lead artist on a song. They even counted Kanye West's feature on Twista's "Slow Jams" as one of the songs that gave him a tally of 3 for the decade. So under their guidelines, Rihanna more than makes the cut for a tie due to that technicality.

It also puts her one ahead of Mariah, too. This actually puts Beyonce one ahead of Rihanna, b/c Live Your Life is not her song, she’s only featured on it. It also puts her one ahead of Mariah, too.
