According to Billboard.com:

The Black Eyed Peas set a record this week for the longest successive No. 1 chart run by a duo or group in the Billboard Hot 100′s history. “I Gotta Feeling” is in its fifth consecutive week at No. 1, following 12 weeks at the top by the Peas’ “Boom Boom Pow.” Boyz II Men reigned on the chart for two 16-week runs in the mid-’90s.

Following “I Gotta Feeling” is Drake‘s “Best I Ever Had” at No. 2, followed by Keri Hilson featuring Kanye West and Ne- Yo‘s “Knock You Down” at No. 3, and Taylor Swift‘s “You Belong With Me” at No. 4. Kings of Leon‘s “Use Somebody” climbs 11-5 this week, courtesy of a 49,000 download gain.
