TOP HAT
Alerts@allhophop.com just told us that this is the first time in history black artists have owned the Billboard Top 10. (I haven't fact-checked this.) Interesting that black artists also have 5 of the Top 11 - 20. Xtina makes it 6, if you feel that way:
1 "Baby Boy," Beyonce Featuring Sean Paul
2 "Shake Ya Tailfeather," Nelly, P. Diddy & Murphy Lee
3 "Get Low," Lil Jon & The East Side Boyz Featuring Ying Yang Twins
4 "Right Thurr," Chingy
5 "Frontin'," Pharrell Featuring Jay-Z
6 "Damn!," YoungBloodZ Featuring Lil Jon
7 "P.I.M.P.," 50 Cent
8 "Into You," Fabolous Featuring Tamia Or Ashanti
10 "Where Is The Love?," Black Eyed Peas
11 "Unwell," matchbox twenty
12 "You & I," Santana Featuring Alex Band Or Chad Kroeger
13 "Here Without You," 3 Doors Down
14 "Crazy In Love," Beyonce Featuring Jay-Z
15 "Can't Stop, Won't Stop," Young Gunz
