Ron Browz Hits Number One

The week is only halfway over, but it's already been a big one career-wise for rapper/producer Ron Browz.

The latest artist to find success with the autotune phenomenon, Browz has topped a Billboard chart for the first time in his career as a rapper.

"Pop Champagne," the infectious urban-pop hit that is set to appear on both Browz' Ether Boy/Universal Motown debut, and Jim Jones' Columbia Records debut Pray IV Reign, entered the #1 position on Billboard's Urban Mainstream chart.

The song, released September 4, has also charted at the #3 position on the Top 40 Rhythm Monitor, which, like the Urban Mainstream chart, monitors a song's success at radio.

In addition, the Juelz Santana-assisted "Champagne" is currently #3 on the Hot Rap Tracks chart, the #4 Hot Hip-Hop/R&B Song, and #11 on the Billboard Hot 100.

To top off his success on the charts, Browz, a Harlem native, has been selected as the feature performer to lead the 75th Anniversary celebration of the Apollo Theater's Amateur Night.
