Two Billboard Records were broken this week. Awesome news! First, the Black Eyed Peas are proving their hit power with one of the most successful come-backs ever. With this week, the Peas have now completed their 20th week in a row at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100! Their singles "Boom Boom Pow" and "I Gotta Feelin'" spent twelve and eight weeks on top respectively. This is the most consecutive weeks any artist has spent at number one on the Hot 100 chart, leaving Usher behind, who scored 19 weeks back in 2004 with his singles "Yeah!" and "Burn".The other record goes to Jason Mraz. His single "I'm Yours" is now the longest-charting single in Billboard Hot 100 history! With this week, the song has now spent a total of 70 weeks inside the chart leaving LeAnn Rimes' "How Do I Live" behind with 69 weeks spent on the chart back in 1997. The best part? "I'm Yours" is showing no signs of falling off the chart just yet, this week it placed at #29! Incredible.
Let's see how high the Peas and Jason will raise the bar in coming weeks!
