Here comes Drake dropping TWO mid-week singles to blow up everyone's H100 predictions. BOOM! Drake's so stupid. lol, jk. But seriously though, mid week releases? He does what he wants... and succeeds doing it. Look at that instant #1 and #2 on iTunes. Bringing Kanye and Jay Z along with him. But it's that One Dance track f/ Wizkid and Kyla that's real fire, imo.

While I hear ya, I also believe a #1 song will get there one way or another if it's meant to be.

If I Took A Pill In Ibiza goes Top 5 on the Hot 100, will that be a new peak for Mike Posner? How high did Cooler Than Me go?

Why has there been so much, dicta in this thread lately? I feel like it's basically a private IM between two people.

Don't make a big deal out of it. 2-3 messages each between two people is not something to start commotion about. And making another post about it only draws more attention to it so it wouldn't be in your best interests anyway. Besides, this is a DISCUSSION thread, no? A thread to discuss music and the Hot 100 charts? And that's exactly what's being done here so I don't see the problem.

Wouldn't both of Drakes singles have to sell 200k plus to debut in top 10? Is he getting streaming on Spotify or YouTube?

Neither of the two new songs are on Spotify, but they are on Apple Music (I'm assuming TIDAL too?) so they will have streaming points.

Whether Love Yourself will break the record is totally under Drake's control now.

It's fun seeing so many songs try to break it and they all fall out during the same week. It's crazy how many songs have been 1 week away from breaking it. Kinda funny how a mid week Drake release would be the thing to stop the record from being broken

If both Drake songs debuted in the top 10, would that make him the first artist in a while to have two songs debut there on the same week? And... That would make him have 3 songs in the top 10.

I knew that with the relatively low points total for the #1 now and with no clear successor this would be the prime time for a major star to drop a new single with a good shot at #1 (even though Drake is already at #1 as a featured act). If he does have the next #1, it probably won't happen this week, or it might not happen at all, given there's two songs to split the points and the mid-week release.
You know, I'm beginning to really think he and/or his team just don't care too much about reaching #1. There are other things to consider besides weekly chart peaks, like overall cumulative sales and streaming numbers that will generate consistent revenue streams over long periods of time, that might not happen if boom, you release album, single, video, and radio all on the same day of the first chart week.

wait, wouldn't this be the record-tying week, not record breaking week, for Love Yourself? What's the record? 21 straight weeks in the Top 10 after debuting in that region. Starships first set the bar, then Sugar, WDYM?, and Sorry each tied it. LY just might be the song that breaks that record.
