charts discussion Cruel Summer challenging for #1; threatened by new racist country song

[Element]

This year has really proven how ridiculous sales are in the Hot 100 formula nowadays 💀 Pop stans have gotten too reliant on streaming (fair because they are paying for it). These MAGA/country ppl are willing to throw money at whatever just to prove a point 

[favorite crime]

#4 on AM now

[LostInStereo100]

Republic records must be real confident with Taylor  

 

The way they are not lifting a finger and yet CS still gaining week over week this far in its chart run on streams is insane. 
 

Will be exciting for Swift to drop something today considering it is the 13th. But who knows. More boosts are coming for CS domination later this month. Lover anniversary will spark more streams and Mexico first international date will see huge spike for CS I am confident about that, globally atleast.

Why is the left wing so poor and lazy. do what the right does and support our GIRLIESSSS.

I think it was proven in 2020 (when Trollz and a lot of forgotten #1's made there) and 2021 (when Butter spent over 2 months at #1). 2023 reiterates it with Like Crazy, Seven, and TTiaST getting to #1 mostly off sales. Sales need to be removed from the Hot 100, and UGC needs to be introduced, so we can have a Hot 100 that reflects reality like before 2020.

WTF IS THIS SONG 

The way you would actually think they want more left wing policies like stronger unions and higher minimum wages and better benefits

Why are working class white people going to pay a monthly fee to a union run by millionaires so that the union leaders can go to dinners, drinks and parties with their boss and discuss how to increase equity and sustainability in the workplace? It makes no sense. What benefit is it for them? If you're being mistreated you can organise a strike or legal action with your colleagues without a union.

 

The heads of unions get paid a LOT of money. Like hundreds of thousands a year or something. Why give them even more money and power? And they often get benefits like free cars, free hotels, free taxis, etc. The workers at the ground level should organise amongst themselves, rather than letting union leaders who socialise with their boss have all the control.

I dont know how each union works. But the union that support the workers in my company helps a lot with negotiations

Country music fans transition to streaming and this is the result.

This song feels a lot bigger than the Aldean song. TTIAST was really just a rightwing This is America. This feels like it's got legs. Morgan isn't safe.

Morgan is gonna be passed by Fast Car and Cruel Summer this week anyway. I haven’t heard anything in this new song tbh, and saw TTIAST all over tiktok and the news.

[Trex]

So a right wing song will block the right wing songstress?
