Iggy Azaela is the woman who do dat. For the fourth week in a row, the Australian rapper's single "Fancy" (feat. Charli XCX) is sitting pretty atop the Billboard Hot 100. Azalea claims the No. 1 song in the United States for the fourth month straight while the top 10 songs stay largely in place to help kick off the summer.
This week, "Fancy" crowns the Billboard Hot 100 for one month straight, as the earwormy sass jam becomes the most-played song in the country on radio. Over the last seven days, Azalea gained seven percent in the radio formats, getting a total of 145 million audience impression, according to Billboard.
The gain in radio play for "Fancy" follows a fall in streams and digital downloads for the The New Classic single, though Azalea still marks the No. 1 spot on those charts. This week, "Fancy" moved 226,000 downloads and 12.2 million streams, an impressive set of numbers considering this song's length in the mainstream.
Azalea continues her chart domination yet again, as she sits at the No. 2 spot in the country as the guest artist on Ariana Grande's "Problem." Grande's infectious summer single slipped to No. 3 on the Digital Songs Chart (186,000 copies sold) while rising to the No. 3 spot on the radio (127 million audience impressions). But still, a "Problem" for Grande this summer has been the reign of "Fancy," and with both losing chart points, it's unlikely she'll reach the summit.
Though there are no new entries in the top 10 of the Hot 100 this week, a minor shakeup in the ranks helps to mark this week as a semi-interesting one. Canadian reggae newcomers MAGIC! soared up four spots on the chart this week, reaching a new peak at No. 3 with "Rude." The sunny jam song received its boost thanks to a 28 percent increase in sales (207,000 copies sold), an entrance into the Radio Songs' top 10 chart and 5.9 million streams.
The rest of the Hot 100's top 10 remains largely the same as last week, with little chart changes marking the charts movements, if there was any movement at all.
John Legend's "All Of Me" was marked with displacement thanks to MAGIC! and fell to the No. 4 spot. That former chart topper comes ahead of Jason Derulo's "Wiggle," DJ Snake and Lil Jon's "Turn Down For What" and Nico & Vinz's "Am I Wrong" and Pharrell Williams' "Happy," which clock in at Nos. 5, 6, 7 and 8 (respectively). Each song stayed more or less in place, moving no more than two spots from its ranking last week.
As to be expected in a largely still week, Calvin Harris' seasonal anthem "Summer" and Sam Smith's heartbreaking ballad "Stay With Me" remain in their spots from last week, at Nos. 9 and 10, to round out the top of the Hot 100.
