Beyonce assumes control again of the Billboard Hot 100 with "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)," trading places 2-1 for a second time in recent weeks with T.I.'s "Live Your Life" featuring Rihanna. "Ladies" is also No. 1 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs for a fifth frame.

Lady GaGa's "Just Dance" featuring Colby O'Donis continues to rise 4-3, flip-flopping with Britney Spears' "Circus." T.I.'s "Whatever You Like" holds at No. 5 on the Hot 100, as Spears' "Womanizer" rebounds 10-6 and Kanye West's "Heartless" blasts 16-7 as the chart's greatest airplay gainer

Katy Perry's "Hot N Cold" drops 7-8, Beyonce's "If I Were a Boy" slides 6-9 and Kanye West's "Love Lockdown" slides 8-10 to round out the top tier. T-Pain's "Can't Believe It" featuring Lil Wayne is the top digital gainer, jumping 23-18 after a 104% increase to 40,000 downloads in the United States, according to NIelsen SoundScan.

The Hot 100's top debut is Jamie Foxx's "Just Like Me" featuring T.I. at No. 75. Foxx's new album, "Intuition," was released this week by J.

Montgomery Gentry's "Roll With Me" begins a second week at No. 1 on Hot Country Songs, as Kings Of Leon's "Sex on Fire" does the same on the Modern Rock tally. Shinedown rises 2-1 to lead Mainstream Rock with "Second Chance."
