Will.i.Am on track for first solo No.1 single

Hitmaker Will.i.Am has shot to the top of the UK charts this afternoon (June 27) with his latest offering, 'This Is Love'.

The track, which features singer Eva Simons, entered the midweek chart update at No.1 and has the potential to give the 'Boom Boom Pow' superstar his first ever chart-topping single.

The Official Charts Company confirmed that the hit has opened up a sales lead of about 13,000 copies.

Chris Brown's new cut, 'Don't Wake Me Up', is this week's second highest new entry and has debuted at No.2, pushing Maroon 5's 'Payphone' down to No.3. Meanwhile, Cheryl Cole's 'Call My Name' has dropped 3 positions to No.5.

Elsewhere in the Top 40, Taio Cruz has made an appearance at No.16 with 'There She Goes', Jay-Z and Kanye West's 'No Church In The Wild' entered at No.32 and Katy Perry's 'Wide Awake' has climbed 2 to No.10.
