Jay Z Vol. HE FINALLY DID IT!

[krazyrodzilla]

Jay Z will earn his fourth Hot 100 No. 1, but his first as a lead or co-billed performer, as his collaboration with Alicia Keys, "Empire State of Mind," will top the chart to be released tomorrow. Thelegendary rapper's prior chart-topping entries came as a featured vocalist on MariahCarey's "Heartbreaker" (1999), his now-wife's "Crazy In Love" (2003) and Rihanna's "Umbrella" (2007). "Empire" is also Keys' fourth overall No. 1, asshe previously scaled the list with her debut single "Fallin'" (2001), her duet with Usher, "My Boo," (2004) and "No One" (2007).


"Empire" takes Hot 100 Airplay Gainer honors as it rises 6-1 on the Radio Songs chart (up 15 million listener impressions to 109.5 million), thelargest climb to No. 1 on that chart since Kanye West's "Stronger" jumped 7-1 onthe chart dated Oct. 6, 2007.

I'm saying his albums as a whole > some No. 1 single.

This is only news because he's been doing this for so long and still hasn't scored his first solo number 1 record up until 'Empire'. But whoreally cares because Soulja Boy has had a No. 1 record too though, right?
