April 4, 2013 It's only been three years since Lite 98.7 started playing music from Bruno Mars and now he has set another chart record. Thanks to his latest hit, "When I Was Your Man," Bruno has just notched his sixth #1 single on Billboard's Pop Songs chart. That's more than any other solo male artist in the 20-year history of Billboard's Pop Songs chart.
It took the Boss to dethrone Adele from the top of the Billboard 200 album chart. Bruce Springsteen‘s ‘Wrecking Ball’ officially debuts at No. 1 this week with approximately 196,000 copies sold, just 1,000 more than Adele’s ’21.’
August 18, 2011 Katy Perry's first major hit was the song "I Kissed a Girl" back in 2008, and when I heard it I thought, looks like another one hit wonder. Three years later, she's proven she's a multi-hit wonder, becoming the first woman to score five No. 1 songs from one CD on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Her "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)" set the precedent: It's the latest No. 1 from her platinum album "Teenage Dream." Only Michael Jackson had five No. 1 songs from one album before Perry, from "Bad." But Jackson spent a total of seven weeks at the top with his "Bad" songs; Perry has been at the top perch now for a cumulative 18 weeks!
