October 7, 200915 yr Jay Sean will put an end to the Black Eyed Peas' record reign atop the Billboard Hot 100 as his "Down" will move into the top slot on the chart to be released tomorrow morning. The Peas had held steady at No. 1 for 26 straight weeks with "Boom Boom Pow" (12 weeks) and "I Gotta Feeling (14 weeks), smashing the prior mark of 19 straight No. 1 frames earned by Usher with a pair of his tracks in 2004.

The track also climbs to the top of Hot 100 Airplay with a total of 115 million listener impressions and rises 5-3 on Hot Digital Songs, where is has moved 1.5 million downloads since its release.HE DID IT! :cheer: Who was the last British male artist to reach the number 1 over there?

October 7, 200915 yr Great. I didn't expect him to be so succesfull in USA Edited October 7, 200915 yr by SoManyOstriches
October 7, 200915 yr yes he did, in the process becoming the British first male to top the US chart since Elton John in 1997
October 7, 200915 yr :lol: apparently You're Beautiful was the first non-urban/American Idol No.1 there in 5 years US #1's are all so predictable...last year's variety of No.1 singles was much better when digital sales counted for more, before they factored airplay back in to a bigger extent :/ I'd get so sick of having the same genre at No.1 ALL the time :drama: Britney will probably miss out on #1 with 3 because of airplay, even if it is the biggest selling single of the week...
