Chart Check: The Weeknd Continues To Block Drake From #1 On Hot 100

Longtime guy pals The Weeknd and Drake continue their friendly rivalry on the Hot 100 as their songs ‘The Hills’ and ‘Hotline Bling’ respectively rule the chart for yet another week.

But, even as steam around ‘Hotline’ rises, it still wasn’t enough to dethrone Weeknd who sees his hit ‘Hills’ reign for its 5th week (with its latest extension due in great part to popular remixes from Eminem and Nicki Minaj).

And, while Weeknd has much cause to celebrate, his celebration may be cut short if the response to ‘Bling’s long-awaited music video is an indication.  For, industry analysts believe the push from the visual may be just what’s needed to make Drizzy the new king of the hill.

Will next week finally see Drake earn his first solo #1 on the Hot 100?  Time will tell.  Until then, check in below for this week’s edition of TGJ’s ‘Chart Check’…

      Drake can suck a foot for all I care. I’m tired of seeing him on the charts with his low quality music. The whites are getting on my last nerve reciting that damn song like they recite the pledge of allegiance. Also the buckwheat nappy headed young bucks in the school hallways while they should be getting an education! Anywho, I’m currently playing ‘You’re Making Me High’ by Toni Braxton
