Tinchy Stryder vs. Black Eyed Peas
Published Tuesday, May 12 2009, 11:42 BST | By Nick Levine | 18 comments
Right then, who's popping and who's flopping in the midweeks?
Tinchy's 'Number 1' is holding Black Eyed Peas' 'Boom Boom Pow' off the top spot... for now. La Roux's 'In For The Kill' is just behind them.
Lily Allen's 'Not Fair', out fully this week, has leapt into the top five.
The Prodigy's 'Warrior's Dance' is just outside the top ten, with Miley's 'The Climb' right behind it.
Alesha Dixon's 'Let's Get Excited' has now climbed into the top 15.
Maximo Park's Quicken The Heart is leading the albums chart, but it'll have to withstand a late charge from the Green Day album, which hits the shelves on Friday.
So, do we reckon the Peas will have overtaken Tinchy by tomorrow? And can Alesha crack the top ten by Sunday? Just use the space below to make your predictions.

I Really hope Miley Cyrus, Hoedown Throwdown and The Climb, Go higher by up coming weeks and come on La Roux in for the kill at number 1

I hope Tinchy stays #1 but I srsly doubt that. 3 weeks at the top for a grime artist is pretty good.

GO BEP! THEY ARE MY FAVOURITE GROUP EVER! I love 'Boom Boom Pow. I am sick of Inchy and N-Dumbz on staying at number 1. Oh yea, how is Keri Hilson's ' Knock You Down', Lady Gaga's 'Paparazzi', Katy Perry's 'Waking Up In Vegas, Taylor Swift's 'Teardrops on My Guitar', Kelly Clarkson's ' I Do Not Hook Up' and Shontelle's 'Stuck With Each Other'. It would be nice of you if you could find Nick.

Come on Green Day! Its great that its a world wide release but a bit worried it might affect their chances at getting another number 1 album! 21st century breakdown is gonna be awesome. And come on the BEP too! 5 weeks in america and its just a disgrace if it doesnt get it over here as well, Tinchy was fine but its had its time now.

I think Boom Boom Pow will definately get the top spot. I hope Not Fair can maintain it position.

Doubt that Alesha will make it into the top 10 but I think the BEP will definitely reach the top. Where's Miley Cyrus with The Climb?

Jonathan Newcastle shame on you Maximo are no 1 in the midweeks, lets have some homegrown talent at no 1 for a change, support your own team not some old American band
