Fall Out Boy’s “Centuries,” Iggy Azalea’s “Beg for It” Reach New Hot 100 Peaks

Last week, Fall Out Boy’s “Centuries” entered the top twenty of the all-encompassing Billboard Hot 100.

This week, the song enters the top fifteen.

The lead single from FoB’s “American Beauty/American Psycho” soars to a new peak of #14 in conjunction with its surging momentum and the Christmas week sales surge.

“Centuries” becomes the band’s sixth top fifteen hit. Fall Out Boy most recently reached the top fifteen courtesy comeback single “My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark,” which peaked at #13.

Other movers in the upper portion of the chart:

— James Newton Howard’s “The Hanging Tree (featuring Jennifer Lawrence)” returns to the top twenty this week. It claims the #16 slot.

— Jessie J + Ariana Grande + Nicki Minaj’s “Bang Bang” enjoys a Christmas week bounce back into the top twenty. It claims the #17 slot.

— Rae Sremmurd returns to the top twenty courtesy “No Type.” The song, which was #23 last week, jumps to #19 this week.

— While even Iggy Azalea herself has acknowledged its run is basically over, “Beg for It (featuring MØ)” still manages to reach a new peak on this week’s chart. It jumps two places from last week (and one from its prior peak) to #27.

Azalea is also represented by #29 “Black Widow (featuring Rita Ora).”
