‘Foolish & Fancy’: Iggy Azalea Spends Second Week Atop ‘Billboard Hot 100’ / Matches Ashanti Record

Published: Thursday 5th Jun 2014 by David

Iggy Azalea spends her second week atop the ‘Billboard Hot 100’ this week, seeing her match a record set by ‘Happy’ singer Ashanti fourteen years ago!

Details on her winning streak after the jump…

Marking its second consecutive week atop the tally, ‘Fancy‘s current spot at #1 on the ‘Hot 100’ comes as sales and streaming points handed to the single by the general public made it the most popular song in the US once again, doing so its parent album ‘The New Classic’ moved 18,090 units in the last week.

Quite interestingly, its holding of the top comes despite suffering a number of dips since the last chart week, with Billboard Biz explaining:

“Fancy” crowns Digital Songs for a second week but decreases by 14 percent to 289,000 downloads sold in the tracking week ending on June 1, according to Nielsen SoundScan. It racks a third week at No. 1 on Streaming Songs, down by 3 percent to 13.5 million U.S. streams. (The song had soared last week by 44 and 66 percent in sales and streaming, respectively, after Azalea and Charli XCX performed it on the Billboard Music Awards on May 18).
 

With a fortnight spent at #1, Iggy becomes the second woman in US chart history to hold the #1 and #2 spots concurrently for multiple weeks, with her Ariana Grande-led ‘Problem’ now perched at #2. This, after R&B singer Ashanti did the same in 2002 thanks to the success of her #1 single ‘Foolish.

    Her album sales are still very underwhelming, so I can’t be impressed by the “success” of a single due to nonsense like streaming, youtube views and $1.29 iTunes pricing. That’s piddly s***.

    • truth June 5, 2014

      Ho no one cares what u OR yo DUSTY ass mammy thinks. Underwhelm DEZE!!!

        No matter of fact Nicki is not a flop. Pink Friday sold over 3 million copies WW and Roman reloaded sold over 2 million copies WW. When will piggys flop album pass 200k WW?

      • truth June 5, 2014

        When will that sh!t go platinum in the US tho? Kii!!!!!!

    • Minaj21 June 5, 2014

      So what if it didn’t certify platinum in USA? It still sold 2 million more than piggys.

  5. Jay June 5, 2014

    Didn’t mariah do this with we belong together and shake it off???
    Doesn’t this make iggy #3????

    • Xav June 5, 2014

      She is #3 but not to Mariah. Adele was the second but she’s not mentioned in this article because she’s a UK artist. Too, this is significant to Ashanti and Iggy because these are their first pair of Billboard Hot 100 hits that made #1 & #2. Even if Mariah did that, it was well into her carer before achieving the feat.

  6. Minaj21 June 5, 2014

    @Truth why you so mad tho babe? Aren’t you a krim stan. Lol

    • truth June 5, 2014

      Honey any and everybody on this site KNOWS i caint stand icki and kim killn icki pregnet. Y dont u go bathe.

      • truth June 5, 2014

        Honey worry about that squid eyed horse teeth ho u stan for. She probably smell like u…FISH!!

    • Minaj21 June 5, 2014

      My fave has beautiful teeth. And she smells good. Krim on the other hand changes her face every year. What race is she this week? White? Mexican? Or is she still Asian?

      • truth June 5, 2014

        she STILL slay yo flop fav who releases 1,258,2568 singles a year and NONE of them tops the charts or even enters the top 10 u ho

    • Minaj21 June 5, 2014

      How does krim slay my fave? Krim with 6 albums has only sold over 5 million albums. Nicki with only two albums has sold over 5 million albums. So who shits on who biatch

      • truth June 5, 2014

  10. Sam Loves Rihanna June 5, 2014

    Record labels pushing pop trash by Iggy, j-Ho and Katy but ignore R&B leading ladies with hotter music like J-HUD, Kelly R., Beyoncé, Mariah, Alicia and Fantasia…and even Usher and Trey.

    • truth June 5, 2014

      girl just stfu and exit screen right b4 i knock yo punk ass out. how the hell you say radio ignoring BEY??

  12. Minaj21 June 5, 2014

    @truth you will forever be pressed at QueenMinaj. But know this nicki is still charting. Nicki charted on hot 100 since f****** 2009 for 5 years. She has more billboard entries than these other rap h***. Piggy can have her number 1 but she will be forgotten in a year just like Carly Rae jepsen.

    • truth June 5, 2014

      and YOU can FOREVER kiss my ass ho

    • Iconic Iggy June 5, 2014

      If that’s so then why are you so bothered and concerned by Iggy to the point of being responsible for half the comments here?

      • truth June 5, 2014

        Read that ho…PREEEEACH!!!!!

    • No Name June 5, 2014

      probably because of the truth trolling and talking like Iggy slayed Nicki’s whole existaance with this feat…
      anyway,,, you can check “Boom Clap” by Charli XCX. Then don’t ask me why did that Fancy became a hit…

  13. KeshaKardashian June 5, 2014

    Ok real talk, what good is a #1 single if you can’t sell the album it’s from. $10 >>>> $1.

    • Minaj21 June 5, 2014

      • truth June 5, 2014

        girl hush

    • SLAYRIAH CAREY (TOUR DE FORCE) June 5, 2014

      Exactly! #1 single and your album can’t even sell 200k worldwide. She will be Carly Rae Jepsen. Just watch.

    Ariana needs to make “Problem” go #1.

    The song is perfect, the sound is perfect, Iggy’s verse is perfect (the only one verse from her I actually like), Big Sean is perfect as one of the Ying Yang twin … I mean, ERRTHANG about this song is on point except … Ariana.

    Guuuurl, you will have to show some tits, to stroke Robin Tchicke, to date Chris Brown, to wear a crystal Swarovski dress, to beef with Mariah Carey, I don’t care! “PROBLEM” HAS GOT TO GO #1 !!! Hear me?

  23. Iconic Iggy June 5, 2014

    Congrats to Iggy! 2 weeks at #1! Haters can continue to hate. Iggy will still be #1 on the Hot 100. And yes @ The New Classic rising in sales 🙂

  24. LTM June 5, 2014

    Congrats to Iggy on a second week at #1. Its a shame that her album sales are low but glad to see them increase. She’ll probably peak at gold with. The Barbz need to hoop out of Iggy’s c*** and worry about Pills N Potions flopping and if that foreshadows her upcoming album sales. Please save the “no promo” excuse. An established artist on their 3rd album shouldnt be struggling to crack the top 40. Certainly not a queen.

  25. Blue Ivy Carter-Rodriguez June 5, 2014

    Fancy is real garbage but even this b**** could get a hit and Beyoncé can’t? Lmao

  26. Brian310 June 5, 2014

    Not everyone comes out the gate selling major units, Rihanna is a good example of someone who came out had a smash single and only reached gold on album sales but after that she took off, the same can happen to Iggy all she needs is another top 20 hit and her album can reach gold which is a sucess for her.

  27. We don’t use her June 5, 2014

    White privilege is the only reason her song is number 1 that song is not even that great it’s a cheap Gwen Stefani knock off. without Charli Xcx the song would be s***.

    • RihIcon June 5, 2014
