Black Eyed Peas Match Mariah Carey Record on Chart

Via ABC News:

With its 14th week at the summit of Billboard’s Hot 100 singles chart, the Black Eyed Peas’ “I Gotta Feeling” matched Mariah Carey’s 2005 hit “We Belong Together” for the longest No. 1 stay this decade.

The hip-hop band has now held firm at No. 1 for 26 straight weeks, with “Boom Boom Pow” preceding “Feeling” with a 12-week run, making the Peas the second act in the 51-year history of the Hot 100 to remain at No. 1 for half a calendar year or more. The other was Usher, who spent 28 nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 in 2004 with four tracks.

Elsewhere on the Hot 100, Jay Sean’s “Down” rebounded one place to No. 2, Miley Cyrus jumped three to No. 3 with “Party In The U.S.A.,” and Jay-Z’s “Run This Town” fell two to No. 4. Jason DeRulo’s “Whatcha Say” soared five to No. 5, trading places with Jay-Z’s “Empire State of Mind.”

Taylor Swift’s “You Belong With Me” fell two to No. 6, Lady Gaga’s “Paparazzi” held at No. 7, Kings of Leon rose one to No. 8 with “Use Somebody,” and Mariah Carey’s “Obsessed” jumped two to No. 9.
