Chris Cornell earns No 1 i'm all over this Billboard

Soundgarden's vocalist Chris Cornell has earned No 1 single as a solo artist posthumously along with his cover of Guns N' Roses' "Patience." The song happens to be ruling at top position on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Songs chart, reported by Loudwire. Taken from his 2016 recording sessions, the cover premiered July 20 of this year, which could have been the late singer's 56th birthday. 

Now, it resides near the top of the rock songs chart, which Billboard notes is his first No. 1 song as a solo artist. Cornell had a small number of No. 1's with Soundgarden ("Black Hole Sun," "INFLATE the exterior World," "Burden In My Hand," "Live to go up" "Been Away TOO MUCH TIME" and "By Crooked Steps") and Audioslave ("Like a Stone" and "Be Yourself"), but prior to now, the closest he'd gotten as a solo artist was as a featured vocalist on Zac Brown Band's "Heavy May be the Head" in 2015.
