The bad news: Usher fell from the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 after 12 weeks with "Yeah," featuring Lil Jon and Ludacris. The good news: he replaced himself at the summit with follow-up "Burn," which would reign for eight weeks.

Carey notched her fourth Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 in as many tries from her debut self-titled album, as "I Don't Wanna Cry" reached the top spot. It followed "Vision of Love," "Love Takes Time" and "Someday" to the summit. As Paul Grein wrote in Chart Beat that week (via reader David Harris), Carey became the first act to top the Hot 100 with her first four entries on the chart since the Jackson 5 in 1970. Carey would lead the list with her next single, 1991's "Emotions," and (following two more top fives) reigned again in 1992 with her cover of the Jackson 5's 1970 No. 1 "I'll Be There."
