Billboard Hot 100, November 14, 2009

1. Whatcha Say - Jason DeRulo

Jason DeRulo climbs to the Hot 100's summit this week with "Whatcha Say," his first single. He's the fourth artist this year to top the chart with their first single, following Lady GaGa, and more recently Jay Sean and Owl City. "Whatcha Say" is the year's 11th #1 hit.

3. Empire State of Mind - Jay-Z Featuring Alicia Keys

Jay-Z and Alicia Keys climb to a new peak this week for "Empire State of Mind," which climbs 10 notches to #3 and is the week's airplay and digital gainer.

9. Bad Romance - Lady GaGa

Lady GaGa debuts at #9 with the new single from the upcoming re-release of The Fame, titled The Fame Monster. It's GaGa's first single to debut in the top 10 and her fifth top 10 single. The Fame joins Usher's Confessions, Fergie's The Dutchess, and Rihanna's Good Girl Gone Bad, as albums released this decade with 5 top 10 hits. Actually this week, another album joins this list as well (see below)

10. Jump Then Fall - Taylor Swift
19. Untouchable - Taylor Swift
22. The Other Side of the Door - Taylor Swift
27. Superstar - Taylor Swift
30. Come In from the Rain - Taylor Swift
34. Forever & Always - Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift's Fearless was re-released with new tracks last week, resulting in 6 entries in the top 40 this week--5 new entries and a re-entry for "Forever & Always." Along with official singles "Love Story," "White Horse," and "You Belong with Me," and other promotional tracks "Change," "Fearless," and "You're Not Sorry," Swift's Fearless has now charted 12 tracks in the top 40, making it the album with the most top 40 hits ever. And #13 is on the way, as "Fifteen" will surely soon enter the top 40. Leading the pack is "Jump the Fall," which becomes the album's fifth top 10 hit.

33. Baby By Me - 50 Cent feat. Ne-Yo

50 Cent debuts at #33 with the first official single from his upcoming album, Before I Self Destruct. Other singles have appeared from the album, such as "Get Up" and "I Get it In" from last year, neither of which cracked the top 40 and both of which have been excluded from the album, which has been pushed back and reworked multiple times.

37. Love Me - Justin Bieber

Canadian teen singer scores his third top 40 hit.

It's not bad. It samples Imogen Heap, which is novel.
