Mims is hot, leaping into the top 5 this week, but Akon is even hotter. Once again Akon is performing on 2 of the top 3 songs on the chart. His latest solo hit scoots 6 notches to #2 while his guest appearance on Gwen Stefani's "The Sweet Escape" holds at #3. Rihanna has her 4th top 10 hit, the 3rd from the album A Girl Like Me, on the heels of the commercial release of the single "Break It Off" with Sean Paul.

Comments
Gwen Stefani jumps into the pop radio top 5 this week with "The Sweet Escape." This is a dramatic turnaround from the failure of "Wind It Up" to come anywhere near the top 5. Gym Class Heroes take a large leap to score their first top 10 pop radio hit, and Christina Aguilera is back with "Candyman," the 3rd top 40 pop radio hit from the double album Back to Basics.
