Cash Money UK Artist Jay Sean
Cash Money/Universal Republic UK newcomer Jay Sean has done it again – sending his sultry signature single “Down” (featuring Cash Money Icon Lil Wayne) into another #1 orbit, jumping from #3 to #1 on the prestigious Top 40 Radio Chart (Source: MediaBase & BDS).
The platinum-plus “Down,” which reached the coveted 1 million digital singles sales plateau after only 2 months of release, already garnered the #1 position on the Rhythmic Crossover chart last week. The irresistible song was also the Greatest Gainer at Rhythmic Radio (for over a month) and the Top 40 format, before finally overtaking the penthouse position at the format. The stunning achievement also marks the first time a Cash Money artist secured the #1 post at Top 40 Radio Chart. The song has also locked down the top spot on Canada’s Pop radio chart.
The infectious single has held a Top 5 Lockdown on the competitive iTunes chart since it hit the digital domain, climbing to # 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles chart in near-record time. “Down” is also lighting up the video and online arenas, hitting the # 1 spot on the top urban/Hip Hop Countdown at Fuse in mid-September, and scoring as Top Ten video staple on VH’1’s popular Countdown show. The video has also become a youtube phenomenon, snaring millions of views as it becomes one of 2009’s most popular clips.
