The Weeknd continues his chart domination this week with “Can’t Feel My Face,” “The Hills” and “Prisoner” landing at #1, #3 and #7 respectively. Elsewhere, Macklemore and Ryan Lewis’ “Downtown” charts at #2 and lastly, Fetty Wap’s “Trap Queen” and Drake’s “Back To Back Freestyle” both fall out of the Top 10.
The Weeknd Reclaims #1 Spot
After being knocked off the top spot by Silentó last week, The Weeknd’s “Can’t Feel My Face” is back at #1 thanks to a 64% increase in sales, likely because of the release of his most recent studio album, Beauty Behind the Madness, which hit stores in late August. The cut sold 125,644 units during the seven days leading to September 3, taking the single’s total sales to 1,491,297 since its official release.

Macklemore Lands At #2 With “Downtown”
“Downtown,” Macklemore and Ryan Lewis’ most recent release, came in at #2 this week, selling 94,942 units during the seven days leading to September 3. The polarizing single, which has been the center of much debate as of late, jumped from #29 to #2 thanks to a 782% increase in sales.
Silentó’s “Watch Me” Falls
Despite being at #1 last week, Silentó’s “Watch Me” has fell to #4 due to the surge in performance from The Weeknd and Macklemore. Nevertheless, “Watch Me” did experience a slight 3% increase in sales during the seven days leading to September 3, selling 85,463 units. Since its official release, the dance-infused single has sold 1,530,688 copies.
