For the 21st consecutive week, popular singing group The Black Eyed Peas rewrites music history by topping the Billboard Hot 100 chart once again. They have now outshone R&B superstar Usher when he set a 19-week record run on the same chart in 2004 with his songs “Yeah” and “Burn.”
The Black Eyed Peas’ “Boom Boom Pow” held the #1 spot of the music chart the first 12 weeks while “I Gotta Feeling” held the top spot the remaining nine weeks.
Reacting to their accomplishment, The Black Eyed Peas’ leader Will.I.Am said: “With this kind of success your ego wants to take all the credit but your heart reminds your soul that it was your heart that had you slaving and creating in the studio making the music; breaking through comfort zones and tradition. In the fight between heart and ego, my heart always wins.”
