The big issue with Mark is that he is hostile with his fans and attempts to lay blame on the fans for s**t songs charting (see Drake Scorpion album week). Also, he tries to make sick jokes (see chart week of XXXTentacionβs death). I mean yeah that is true. The only reason I actually like him is billboard breakdown. Yeah Billboard Breakdown is good but if it was done by another youtuber (say Diamond Axe Studios Music), it would be much better.

I mean kumerai fang sort of did it, but she only did the new arrivals. And I feel like diamond axe studios would do the same thing. Also mark posts every week unlike most music critics

I donβt get Pulseβs love for We Paid. Itβs a very dull and monotonous song that is supposed to be a trap βbangerβ.

In response to @jadenlefranks 's comment, I would like to add two things:
1. "Birthday" is so much better than most people give it credit for. The production is infectiously fun and the lyrics provide a much better (notably more playful and less obviously embarrassing) take on the sex-as-food metaphors than pretty much any song in a similar vein.
It deserved the single treatment, and if it wasn't for that awful music video (a popular opinion), it would have performed much better than it did.
2. While I do enjoy both songs you mentioned (especially "Walking On Air", which is one of my highlights from the album), retroactively, I am glad "Legendary Lovers" was never a single. "This Is How You Do" 's music video already caused a lot of trouble for Katy - now imagine a the music video for a song borrowing heavily on South Asian influences? The backlash would probably be worse than Selena's "Come & Get It", especially with Katy Perry's flimsy history with cultural appropriation.

I never understood what was so awful about the birthday music video. Was it her at the old peopleβs home that people didnβt like? What part of it caused all the hate?

"Lights Up" is the best single from Harry Styles' Fine Line era. It's a shame it wasn't a bigger hit I wish it had actually been pushed to radio here when he released it.

Manic is one of the best albums released in the year thus far. I don't hear much word of it at all so in that aspect it's underrated. On that note, Halsey deserves more recognition critically. I feel like critics are still really biased about her.

The best Shawn Mendes singles are the ones that charted the worst..."Something Big" and "Lost in Japan" (with Zedd).

Jlo is capable of maintaning her celebrity status despite many flop albums/singles. Considering her peak as well her last Hot 100 no. 1 was 2003. With a mini comeback in 2011-2012. To be honest, Im not surprised if she can pull a Cher, with a surprise No. 1 Hot 100 dance hit in her 50s. Still with a flop album of course.

Awful remix and absolutely gutted the groove of the song; whoever's idea it was to push that and not the original needs to be punished.
