Rihanna and Drake Top the Charts
Little Miss Sunshine is back in a familiar place. Rihanna just added another chart-topping single to her discography, with her Drake-assisted hit “What’s My Name?” leaping from 60-1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
The second single from the pop star’s fifth album Loud marks her eighth Hot 100 No. 1 over her career and third this year following “Rude Boy” and “Love the Way You Lie” with Eminem. The island-infused tune debuts at No. 1 on the Digital Songs chart with sales of 235,000 downloads. Additionally, the track earned Airplay Gainer on Radio Songs with a 30 percent increase in audience.
RiRi also holds the No. 4 spot on the Hot 100 with “Only Girl (In the World),” while Far East Movement’s “Like a G6” lands at No. 2, Bruno Mars’ “Just the Way You Are” charts at No. 3, and Ke$ha’s “We R Who We R” drops 1-5.
The red-headed singer’s collaborator Drake has reason to celebrate as well, earning his first No. 1 on the Hot 100. His mixtape single “Best I Ever Had” peaked at No. 2 last year.
