I wonder if EOM survived the album bomb 

Good point. There are alot of songs going to be sent into early recurrent status this and next month.

 

Hmm...should be interesting to see if EOM held on

Morgan is such a monster.

He sure is. A good portion of the country is just like him, too.

 

OT: I hope AIW returns to #1 next week, but Kendrick might snatch. Also, very happy for Lizzo. She finally got the smash she needed to launch this album. I hope there’s more to come.

these album bombs are really cleaning up the charts right now. they must be making way for the start of a new era. will be really interesting to see how the entire hot 100 looks in the next few weeks.

[Capruni]

Wow, I’m happy Jack managed to get another week at #1 with First Class.

 

I’m shocked with  Bad Bunny’s numbers! Wow! He needs to plan better his next era cuz if  releases the first single in a week with no competition, he will def debut at #1. His streaming numbers are insane!

 

Next week probably Kendrick is debuting at #1 with N95…

[Roberto]

Hold My Hand.  And Lizzo getting a solo top 10 hit.  I hope both keep climbing. 

[Gigii]

Unfortunately songs like Stay and Bad Habits will survive the album bombs as they haven’t reached 50 weeks yet.

4 spanish songs in the top 10, whew. Is this a first?

Yes, according to Gary in the Top 10 article. But I'm too tech challenged to share the link from my phone.

Interesting Hot 100, Yes.....Entirely accurate? No, Not so much.....

 

OT ATRL is actually sending me Republican candidates ads to my phone. ATRL I guess you're pressed for bucks.  But I'm a Libertarian. Just cause I don't like the Dems doesn't mean I like the Reps.

maybe if she starts promoting again then she can survive Kendrick's and Harry's too...

Is Kendrick gonna knockout abcdefu, Industry Baby, EOM and Need To Know all in one swoop? Or will he just cannibalize Bad Bunny and Future's past album bombs?

I'm going more with the latter but he could do both.

The thing is that some Bad Bunny songs had longevity the second week so they won't fall that hard so abcdefu, EOM and Need to now, etc, will probably go recurrent too.

Hope Kendrick debuts at #1

According to chart essentials Kendrick will debut at #3:

Pretty sure this will be the first Billboard year since album bombs started happening that we had THREE massive album bombs impact the Top 50 in a row.
