• OMI 'Cheerleader' Knocks Wiz Khalifa 'See You Again' from No. 1 on Hot 100

    The times, they are a changin'.

  • The 6 RIAA Diamond Singles: Eminem, Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber and More

    "Radioactive" by Imagine Dragons joined an elite company today, becoming only the sixth song in history to attain diamond status from the Recording Industry Association of America, meaning that it's moved the equivalent of 10 million units in sales, or 10-times platinum status.
