I think CG will at least match IKAG's run at #1. It's gonna be #1 for the fourth week tomorrow. Digital sales are slowing down, but they were still over 300k this week, and her airplay is still increasing and HUGE considering it doesn't have that much crossover appeal
"Love The Way You Lie" enters Hot Digital Songs at #1. It enters the Hot 100 at #2, behind "California Gurls" by Katy Perry featuring Snoop Dogg, which logs its fourth week on top. "Love The Way You Lie" may yet reach the top spot. It would be Eminem's third #1 on the Hot 100 in 18 months, following "Crack A Bottle" and "Not Afraid." This is noteworthy because in his first 10 years of recording, Eminem notched just one #1, 2002's monster hit "Lose Yourself." This would be the second time that Rihanna is featured on a #1 hit by a rap star. She was featured on T.I.'s 2008 smash "Live Your Life."
wish it woulda went #1 on the Hot 100 but #2 is good also
"Love The Way You Lie" may yet reach the top spot.
All I needed to hear
#2 debut is good, it broke Rihanna's previous personal highest-debut in the BBH100, which was held by Disturbia. I'm also glad it was on a Eminem track!
