1. Not Afraid - Eminem
On the back of particularly strong sales, Eminem sails to #1 with "Not Afraid," the first single from his upcoming seventh album, Recovery. The single sold 379,000 copies, the fourth most first-week sales tally and just slightly less than Eminem scored with his last #1 debut, "Crack a Bottle," which moved 418,000 in its first week. It's the first single to debut at #1 this year, the last since Britney Spears did so last October with "3." Eleven years since first hitting it big with "My Name Is," Eminem has been pretty much a constant chart fixture, although it's a bit surprising to note that this is only his third chart-topper, following the aforementioned "Crack a Bottle" and "Lose Yourself."
2. OMG - Usher feat. Will.I.Am
So Usher gets pushed down to #2 after just 1 week at #1, but I suspect he'll be back up there. The single is nowhere near losing its bullet, and is, in fact, this week's greatest Airplay Gainer.
5. Airplanes - B.o.B. feat. Hayley Williams
B.o.B.'s second single climbs into the top 5, as his first, "Nothin' on You," inches down a notch to #3. "Nothin' on You" is still growing at Top 40 radio, where it is currently #1, although likely to yield to Taio Cruz's "Break Your Heart" soon.
9. My Oh My - 3Oh!3 feat. Ke$ha
3Oh!3 hit #7 earlier this year when they appeared on Ke$ha's "Blah Blah Blah." Now they return the favor, hosting Ke$ha on their "My Oh My," their third top 10 hit. This is the first single from their upcoming second album, Streets of Gold.
11. Alejandro - Lady GaGa
Lady GaGa climbs 5 spots to #11 earning this week's Digital Gainer, putting her on the cusp of scoring her 7th top 10 hit. Surely it will do so next week.
12. Young Forever - Jay-Z feat. Mr. Hudson
Jay-Z and Mr. Hudson appeared on the Betty White-hosted SNL this week, but it didn't do much for "Young Forever," which falls out of the top 10 this week, down 2 to #12.
16. Total Eclipse of the Heart - Glee Cast feat. Jonathan Groff
Glee scores its biggest hit since the pilot's "Don't Stop Believin' hit #4. No other Glee single has been in the top 20 until now. This is the 10th Glee top 40 hit.
36. Rock that Body - Black Eyed Peas
Black Eyed Peas score their 13th top 40 hit, fifth from last year's Grammy Award-winning The E.N.D. Black Eyed Peas member Fergie's album The Dutchess also scored five top 40 hits (both albums also each contain three #1 hits).
