Hopefully you're not sick of it yet.

Rihanna's "Work" is her first number one on the Hot 100 since 2012's "Diamonds," and it seems it won't be leaving the top spot without a fight. The single will be spending its 8th consecutive week atop the charts, tying Rih for the record for second-most total weeks at number one, trailing only Mariah Carey (79 weeks to Rihanna's 59). 

As a personal record, the song is also Rih's the second-longest running single at #1, surpassing "Umbrella" and "Love The Way You Lie" this week. "We Found Love" made it to 10 weeks atop the charts, can "Work " do the same?

In other big chart news, Desiigner's "Panda" has raced to number 5 on the charts (up from 14). Rap #1s are few and far between. Does it have the potential to hit that milestone?
