Jay-Z and Alicia Keys top the Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart for a fifth week with their single, "Empire State of Mind." The #1 song, originally off Jay-Z's "Blueprint 3" album, also appears in a "Broken Down" version on Keys' new album, "The Element of Freedom."

Newcomer Ke$ha moves up to the #2 spot with her debut single, "Tik Tok." She releases her debut album, "Animal," in January. She also helped pushed Lady Gaga down to #3 this week "Bad Romance."

Iyaz remains at #4 with his single "Replay," while Owl City's "Fireflies" also stays at #5 this week. David Guetta and Akon move up to #6 this week with their hit dance single "Sexy B****," while Jason DeRulo moves down a spot to #7 with his former #1 "Whatcha Say."

The rest of the top 10 remains unmoved from the previous week. The Black Eyed Peas are still #8 with "Meet Me Halfway," while Britney Spears stays at #9 with her former #1 "3" and Jay Sean is at #10 with "Down."
