Mark Ronson, Bruno Mars 'Uptown Funk' Owns Hot 100 for 11th Week as Sam Smith & Fetty Wap Debut in Top 10

It's yet ANOTHER funky week atop the Billboard charts. Yes, for the 11th week in a row, Bruno Mars and Mark Ronson own the Hot 100 with their Uptown Special hit "Uptown Funk." Despite the stagnant No. 1 seed, the charts actually got a bit of a shakeup this week as Maroon 5 make a play for the top and two new songs from Sam Smith and Fetty Wap break into the top 10.

"Uptown Funk" is proving to be an unstoppable force in the U.S., as the Ronson/Mars collaboration tops the charts for the 11th straight week, according to Billboard. The song holds steady at the top thanks to continued prominence in the digital downloads field, with 189,000 copies sold. The track also owns the streaming charts and radio play, easily biding another week at the chart summit.

But, there's something new coming for the charts... Maroon 5's "Sugar." After two weeks at No. 3, Adam Levine and co.'s latest V single finally eclipsed the eight week No. 2 track Ed Sheeran's "Thinking Out Loud" (which fell to No. 3 this week). The sweet rise of "Sugar" was not only aided by the clip's viral (if fake) wedding crashers music video as well as slowly rising sales and increasing streams.

The charts remain filled with familiar hits in Nos. 4 through 7, as Ellie Goulding and Rihanna hold at Nos. 4 and 5 with "Love Me Like You Do" and "FourFiveSeconds." A flip-flop took place in Nos. 6 and 7, as The Weeknd's "Earned It" rises a spot and Taylor Swift's "Style" starts to slip. No. 9 on the Hot 100 also holds familiar, with Pitbull and Ne-Yo's "Time of Our Lives" keeping it steady.

Nos. 8 and 10 are new risers into the top 10. Sam Smith makes his third In The Lonely Hour appearance in the top 10 this week with his Red Nose Day version of "Lay Me Down," featuring John Legend. The song rose 50 spots on the chart thanks to the Legend remix and the music video, which helped to support the biannual U.K. charity event.

The other new arrival in the top 10 comes to us via rising rapper Fetty Wap and his single "Trap Queen." The shockingly catchy tune bumped out Swift's "Blank Space" and Hozier's "Take Me to Church" from the top of the chart.

Outside of the top 10, Mumford & Sons had the highest Hot 100 debut this week with its first "electric" song "Believe," which arrived on the charts at No. 30.
