Bruno Mars is keeping his grip atop the Billboard Hot 100 tight for a second week with his solo comeback single, ‘I Just Might,’ and the extended stay is coming alongside some historic stats.
‘Might,’ the first single from Bruno’s February 27-due new album ‘The Romantic,’ has puckered up for a second week at #1 on the Hot 100.
Here are the numbers that powered the placement.
- Streaming = 17.1 million U.S.-based streams
- Sales = 9,000 downloads
- Radio Airplay = 40.8 million audience impressions
Marking a milestone tenancy for Mars, ‘Might’ comes as his first solo single since 2012 to hold the top spot for more than one week, after ‘Locked Out of Heaven‘ held on for 6 weeks that year.
What’s more, the stay comes as the 41st week of his overall career being printed at #1 on the Hot 100 – putting him in exclusive company.
At writing, Usher – with 47 weeks to his name – holds the record among male vocalists and is the only other in the category who can boast having 40 or more weeks at the chart’s summit.
Among all singers, however, Mariah Carey holds the record with a whopping 101 weeks at #1 to her credit.
