In its 24th week on the chart, Iggy Azalea’s Rita Ora featuring “Black Widow” claims the #1 spot yet again on the Digital R&B/Hip Hop singles charts this week. A YG feature on Jeremih’s “Don’t Tell ‘Em” single helps displace Nicki Minaj’s “Anaconda” at #2 while Bobby Shmurda reclaims his #4 spot after falling two spots last week.
Iggy Azalea Stays At #1
With a 14% drop from last week’s sales, Iggy Azalea and Rita Ora’s “Black Widow” single still had more than enough to keep it at #1 for yet another consecutive week. In its 24th week on the chart, “Black Widow” sold just short of 90k while bringing its total tally to just above 1.5 million.
Meanwhile, Azalea’s even bigger hit, “Fancy,” has yet to lose its Top 10 edge, falling from the #9 to the #10 spot this week. “Fancy” has sold 3,723,410 units to date with an additional 25,477 this week alone.

Jeremih And YG Reenter The Top 3
Jeremih and YG’s “Don’t Tell ‘Em” sold almost the same amount as last week, the 76,109 sold this week representing a one percent increase, but had enough copies bought to finally displace Nicki Minaj’s “Anaconda” single from #2. “Don’t Tell ‘Em” has sold 848,414 singles in total and continued to rise in its 18th week on the list.
NIcki Minaj Falls To #3
Nicki Minaj’s Sir Mix-A-Lot inspired single lost its #2 spot with a 15% drop in sales from last week. “Anaconda” sold 75,662 this week (down from 89,132 last week) and broke the one million singles sold mark in the process. Now with 1,024,941 of the single sold, Minaj also lays claim to four spots further down the list, assisting R&B singers Trey Songz, August Alsina, and Usher at #19, #34, and #52 respectively. At the same time, Minaj’s previous release “Pills N Potions” hung on at #73 in its 20th week on the chart, now having sold a total of 605,924.
