Beyonce Bags 6th Week At #1

Published: Thursday 5th Apr 2012 by David

Whether you like it or not, there’s no escaping the power of a Beyonce single.

Sure, while the birth of her first child slowed things down on her latest LP’s promo front, the sales of her dance release ‘Love On Top’ are anything but damaged by the act’s well deserved break.

Not sure what we’re getting at?

Well, despite her absence from the stage, Knowles has spent six weeks atop Billboard’s Top Hip Hop & R&B charts with the upbeat jam, beating efforts by Usher and Rihanna.

Released December 7th 2011, ‘Top’ has now reached Gold status in Italy and the US while going Platinum in Australia. This, coupled with its #1 spot on the US Hot Dance Club chart makes it one of the star’s highest selling cuts since 2008’s ‘Single Ladies‘.

Perched 3 spots above DietRita‘s ‘Birthday Cake’ and 2 spots above Usher‘s ‘Climax’, its domination comes months before her latest movie ‘A Star Is Born’ his theaters but 10 months after the release of ‘4‘, her fourth #1 album.
