The Top 3 of the R&B/Hip Hop single sales chart remains the same this week, with Lil Wayne, D.R.A.M. and Rihanna holding onto their first, second and third spots respectively. D.R.A.M. made some moves on the Hot Rap Songs chart this week by bumping Drake’s “Too Good” from the top spot.
Elsewhere this week, Travis Scott’s “Pick Up In The Phone” comes in at #6 and lastly, Beyonce’s “Formation” once again falls out of the Top 10 following a brief re-emergence last week.
