Jay Sean & Lil Waynes Down is Number 1 On Billboard Hot 100

Jay Sean will put an end to the Black Eyed Peas’ record reign atop the Billboard Hot 100 as his “Down” will move into the top slot on the chart to be released tomorrow morning. The Peas had held steady at No. 1 for 26 straight weeks with “Boom Boom Pow” (12 weeks) and “I Gotta Feeling (14 weeks), smashing the prior mark of 19 straight No. 1 frames earned by Usher with a pair of his tracks in 2004.

For Sean, his debut single becomes his first Hot 100 No. 1. The track also climbs to the top of Hot 100 Airplay with a total of 115 million listener impressions and rises 5-3 on Hot Digital Songs, where is has moved 1.5 million downloads since its release.
