Soul Sweep: February 7, 2015...

We're at the "hump" of today's "chart sweeps", checking out the songs making the charts in Billboard magazine, and this time out I've got the latest hits on R&B radio...

On the main R&B/Hip Hop Airplay chart, Big Sean spends a fourth non-consecutive week at #1 with "I Don't F**k With You"...

Surprisingly, the #1 pop hit in America, with a title with "Funk" in its name, finally makes it on to the R&B chart as "Uptown Funk" by Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars is the sole debut of the week...

Meanwhile, on the older-skewing Adult R&B radio panel Avery Sunshine remains at #1 for a fifth non-consecutive week with "Call My Name", while the aforementioned "Uptown Funk" is the top new entry at #17...

Aretha Franklin drops in at #30 with her cover of Adele's "Rolling In The Deep", my "Soul Pick of the Week"...

Lastly, on the Rhythmic format, whose stations include more dance/pop music in their playlists, Usher climbs to #1 with "I Don't Mind" featuring Juicy J...

The solitary newbie on the chart at #39 is Meghan Trainor's top-10 pop hit "Lips Are Movin'"...

I'll be back with the latest country songs on the radio...
