Wiz Khalifa 'See You Again' Tops Hot 100; OMI 'Cheerleader' Makes Big Gains

It's another big summer week for Wiz Khalifa's Furious 7 single "See You Again." For the 10th week this year, the Charlie Puth featuring track crowns the Billboard Hot 100, but one song continues its charge up the charts and looks to be a solid contender for the coveted No. 1 spot: OMI's surprise sunny hit "Cheerleader."

"See You Again" continues its stronghold on the Hot 100 this week, Billboard reports, holding off Taylor Swift's "Bad Blood" for a fourth week after she rose and fell from the top spot. Though "See You Again" lost tallies in radio play, downloads and streams, its radio dominance (No. 1, 167 million audience impressions) makes it reach double-digit status at No. 1.

But, Swift's latest 1989 single is also challenging to return to No. 1, though it holds at No. 2 for a fourth week. "Bad Blood" tops digital downloads for a fifth week with 173,000 units sold and it crowns pop radio play, though its No. 3 on radio, overall. Swift's leads in sales weren't enough to eclipse "See You Again," especially it slides down on streams.

The top three songs in the country remain the same this week as last as Fetty Wap's "Trap Queen" holds its No. 3 position.

But, the status quo top three may be interrupted soon by the summery single "Cheerleader" by Jamaican singer OMI. After vaulting up the charts consistently, "Cheerleader" continued its journey to the top this week. Sales increased by 18 percent (to 159,000 downloads), radio play rose 27 percent and streams increased by 17 percent, allowing OMI's breakout hit to jump from No. 7 to No. 4. And Billboard seems to indicate that OMI may have a future home in the No. 1 spot - Khalifa and Swift, be warned.

As OMI continues to rise, the rest of the top 10 sees modest gains and losses.

The bottom of the charts is filled by an eclectic mix. David Guetta's "Hey Mama" featuring Nicki Minaj rises mildly to No. 8, Andy Grammer's "Honey I'm Good" bumps up to No. 9 and The Weeknd's "Earned It" brings up the rear at No. 10.
