Chart Highlights: Macklemore & Ryan Lewis Crown

After spending six weeks in the runner up position, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis take the Hot 50 Crown with "Thrift Shop (feat. Wanz)". It becomes the first rap song to ever hit #1 on the CDS Music Chart, and dethrones "Fix You" after a 4 week run at the top.

As previously stated, Vita Chambers falls 1-2 down by 5% in overall points.

After collecting two back to back #1 singles last year with "Euphoria" and "My Heart Is Refusing Me", Loreen is back to dominating the top 5. She holds at #3 with "Crying Out Your Name". If the single can nab #1, Loreen would become just the 4th artist/group to collect at least three #1's after Maroon 5 (3 consecutive), Rihanna (4 non-consecutive), and Nicki Minaj (4 non-consecutive).

Rihanna holds at #4 with "Stay (Shahaf Moran Remix)". The single could mark a historic point in her chart history if it reaches #1. If it does, Rihanna would become the first artist to post 5 different #1's after "We Found Love (feat. Calvin Harris)", "Take Care (feat. Rihanna)", "Where Have You Been", and "Diamonds (Shahaf Moran Remix)".

Maroon 5's "Doin' Dirt" ascends 7-5 in its 17th week. It becomes the group's 6th consecutive top 5 hit after "Moves Like Jagger (feat. Christina Aguilera)" peaked at #5, "Payphone (feat. Wiz Khalifa)" peaked at #1(x4), "One More Night" peaked at #1, "Love Somebody" peaked at #1, and "Lucky Strike" peaked at #3.

Icona Pop flies 15-6 with "I Love It (feat. Charlie XCX)".

Marina & the Diamonds dips 5-7 with "How to Be a Heartbreaker" during its 22nd week.

Taylor Swift rises 9-8 with "I Knew You Were Trouble" during the song's 16th week. After four albums, and 24 single releases she nets her first top 10 hit on her 25th try.

Swedish House Mafia moves down 8-9 with "Don't You Worry Child (Radio Edit) [feat. John Martin]". The song spent an record-tying eight weeks at #1 from December 2012-January 2013.

Rounding out the top 10 is "Troublemaker (feat. Flo Rida)" by Olly Murs dipping 6-10.

Below the top 10, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis fly into the top 20 with "Can't Hold Us (feat. Ray Dalton)", and Carly Rae Jepsen leads the pack of sophomore week songs with "Tonight I'm Getting Over You".

Come back soon for the chart!
