Comments

Chris Brown keeps 2 songs in the top 10 for a second week. Fergie moves one step closer to a 5th #1 from her debut album The Dutchess as "Clumsy" inches to #2. However, it seems unlikely that "Clumsy" will actually make it the top as Rihanna roars into the top 5 with "Don't Stop the Music." Michael Jackson to give "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'" another trip on the charts. It was a #5 smash 25 years ago, and this time the song has been re-recorded with a guest vocal from Akon.

Comments

Juno, the little soundtrack that could, climbs one more notch to become the first #1 soundtrack album since Dreamgirls a year ago. What is even more interesting is that it is the first soundtrack from a movie nominated for an Academy Award for Best Picture to hit #1 since Titanic a decade ago. Natasha Bedingfield has a stellar week debuting at #3 with her biggest album sales week yet in the US.

It's a log jam at the top, but Chris Brown's new solo single "With You" looks like a big one. It climbs 8 spots into the top 20 while being both the most added song at radio this week and the song with the greatest gain in overall airplay points. Janet Jackson is nearing the top 30 this week making "Feedback" look like a bona fide return to form on the pop charts.
