Comments
Justin Timberlake is dominant on the radio. "SexyBack" holds at the top spot, while "My Love," the followup single is the fastest rising song on the chart. A few weeks after she topped the overall chart, Fergie finally enters the radio top 5 with "London Bridge." Another song which seems to be trying to catch up with national interest is Danity Kane's lead single "Show Stopper" which enters the chart at #33 this week.
