NEW YORK - The Black Eyed Peas have just made history on the Billboard charts.

This week the foursome will have topped Billboard's Hot 100 singles chart for 20 consecutive weeks, the most ever by an act. "Boom Boom Pow" and "I Gotta Feeling," the song that dislodged it, have been on top of the singles chart for 12 weeks and eight weeks, respectively.

Though the band has had big hits over the years, "Boom Boom Pow" is their first No. 1 single.
