Billboard Hot 100: 11/4/2017

[rainie]

Ugh @ WAU missing the top 10. I'm not surprised, as I had a feeling those predicting it would go top 10 were being very optimistic, but it doesn't mean I'm not sad about it since this is more then likely its peak.

[jayhawk1117]

If it gets a crazy amount of streaming, most likely will, it should easily reach 4 again. If it's actually the rumored remix with (insert Drake/Kesha/Katy/Kanye/etc here), it easily takes number one imo

I was holding out hope too but honestly I'll take #13 over, say, #11.

On another note, awesome to see Demi reaching a new high and Unforgettable still hanging in there and FIS no longer #1 on Alt even if it was Thunder that had to take its place

[truemusicreviews]

Taylor's marketing strategy for reputation has been kinda dodgy thus far, which explains why her singles haven't been doing too well. She's definitely still a force to be reckoned with.

It's a nice song actually. One of the best inside the top 10. Well deserved. 

I'd argue. Most people that I know find it really annoying; I can't really imagine else than simple, white teen girls listening to it but hey - I'm most likely wrong and that's my opinion.

But it doesn't change the fact that I wholeheartedly despise that "song".

It's probably just you and people around you, cause around me it seems like most people i know enjoy it. I honestly don't like Demi's songs usually but i liked this one.

With the music video for "...Ready For It?" dropping this week is it possible for it to somehow hit #1? I'm sure its streaming / views will be through the roof, but I don't know how the charts work as well as you guys

It could potentially hit #1 but i'm guessing it would peak at #3 or #2 at most. But it also depends on the spotify streams and the radio airplay.

The song has been building airplay since it was released, so it'll probably shoot to the top with the adds dates. It'll depend a lot on the mv, if it gets tons of views and reignites the interest on the song on spotify and itunes it could very well go up to #1.

I'm pretty sure the MV will push the youtube streams very well and the itunes sales. But i'm not sure about spotify and AM.

If she gets iTunes interest after her fanbase bought the song she might very well do well on Spotify.

Post Malone & 21 Savage's 'Rockstar' Rules Billboard Hot 100 for Second Week




Plus, two rock bands place in the top five simultaneously for the first time in a decade & Demi Lovato hits another career-high rank.
Post Malone's "Rockstar," featuring 21 Savage, spends a second week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart (dated Nov. 4). Meanwhile, two rock bands – Portugal. The Man and Imagine Dragons – appear in the top five simultaneously for the first time in over 10 years, while Demi Lovato lifts to another personal-best rank with "Sorry Not Sorry."

As we do every Monday, let's run down the top 10 of the Hot 100, which blends all-genre streaming, airplay and sales data. All charts will update on Billboard.com tomorrow (Oct. 24).

"Rockstar," released on Republic Records, logs a fourth (nonconsecutive) week at No. 1 on the Streaming Songs chart with 54.3 million U.S. streams (up 6 percent), in the week ending Oct. 19, according to Nielsen Music. It rises 3-2 on Digital Song Sales (which it led for a week), up 14 percent to 54,000 downloads sold in the week ending Oct. 19, and surges 38-26 on Radio Songs with 48 million in all-format audience (up 37 percent, good for the Hot 100's top Airplay Gainer award) in the week ending Oct. 22.

"Rockstar" concurrently leads the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Rap Songs charts for a second week each.

Cardi B's "Bodak Yellow" holds at No. 2 on the Hot 100 after three weeks at No. 1. It keeps at No. 2 on Streaming Songs (42.1 million, down 9 percent) and rebounds 6-5 on Digital Song Sales (37,000, down 7 percent) and 11-10 on Radio Songs (73 million, down 3 percent).

Logic's "1-800-273-8255," featuring Alessia Cara and Khalid, is steady at its No. 3 Hot 100 peak. It holds at No. 3 on Streaming Songs (31.2 million, essentially even week-over-week), while jumping 8-6 on Radio Songs (84 million, up 10 percent).
Meanwhile, two rock bands rise in the Hot 100's top five: Portugal. The Man and Imagine Dragons. The former pushes to a new high (5-4) with "Feel It Still," which also crowns Radio Songs for a second week (115 million, up 5 percent). It lifts 5-4 on Digital Song Sales (38,000, down 9 percent) and 33-26 on Streaming Songs (15.1 million, up 7 percent). On Hot Rock Songs, "Feel" reigns for a fourth week.


Imagine Dragons' "Thunder" rumbles 8-5 on the Hot 100 (surpassing its prior No. 7 high). It returns to the top of Digital Song Sales for a second week at No. 1 (66,000, up 4 percent) and roars 20-14 on Radio Songs (70 million, up 18 percent) and 24-21 on Streaming Songs (15.9 million, up percent). The band earns its third top five Hot 100 hit, following previous single "Believer" (No. 4 in August) and "Radioactive" (No. 3, 2013).

With Portugal. The Man and Imagine Dragons at Nos. 4 and 5, respectively, two rock songs share space in the Hot 100's top five for the first time in over a year, since the Sept. 10, 2016-dated chart, when twenty one pilots' "Heathens" and "Ride" ranked at Nos. 4 and 5, respectively. However, the last time until this week that two different rock bands doubled up in the Hot 100's top five? More than a decade ago, on the chart dated Feb. 17, 2007, when Fall Out Boy's "This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race" and Daughtry's "It's Not Over" charted at Nos. 3 and 4, respectively.

(In between, the last time rock songs by two rock acts, but not two groups, specifically, appeared in the top 10 together until this week? Over five years ago, on June 30, 2012, when soloist Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know," featuring Kimbra, and trio fun.'s "We Are Young," featuring Janelle Monae, ranked at Nos. 2 and 5, respectively.)

On the Alternative Songs airplay chart, "Thunder" becomes Imagine Dragons' third No. 1 (3-1). It dethrones "Feel It Still" after 17 weeks at No. 1, two weeks shy of Muse's record 19-week reign with "Madness" in 2012-13.

J Balvin and Willy William's "Mi Gente," featuring Beyonce, holds at No. 6 on the Hot 100 after reaching No. 3 two weeks ago (following the first full week of tracking for its remix featuring Beyonce). It dips 5-6 on Streaming Songs (27.2 million, down 2 percent), while climbing 17-12 on Digital Song Sales (28,000 sold, up 4 percent, with the Beyonce remix accounting for two-thirds of the song's sales for the week) and 22-16 on Radio Songs (61 million, up 10 percent). "Mi Gente" spends a third week at No. 1 on Hot Latin Songs.

Demi Lovato lifts to a new career high on the Hot 100, as "Sorry Not Sorry" rebounds 9-7 (besting its previous No. 8 peak). It also bounds 13-7 on Radio Songs (81 million, up 18 percent), where it's the singer-actress's fourth top 10. She previously reached the Radio Songs top 10 with "Give Your Heart a Break" (No. 6, 2012), "Heart Attack" (No. 7, 2013) and "Cool for the Summer" (No. 7, 2015). As previously reported, "Sorry" becomes Lovato's second No. 1 on the Pop Songs airplay chart, following "Give" in 2012.

Sam Smith's "Too Good at Goodbyes" backtracks 7-8 on the Hot 100 after reaching No. 5 (upon its Sept. 30 debut) and French Montana's "Unforgettable," featuring Swae Lee, reverses course (10-9), after reaching No. 3.
Rounding out the Hot 100's top 10, Taylor Swift's former three-week No. 1 "Look What You Made Me Do" tumbles 4-10. As "Look" drops from No. 1 to No. 7 on Pop Songs, marking the steepest fall from the top in the chart's 25-year history, it concurrently plunges from No. 5 (its peak) to No. 20 on Radio Songs, where it's likewise the biggest fall from the top five since the chart began in 1990;
it passes the 5-16 descent of Kanye West's "Gold Digger," featuring Jamie Foxx (Dec. 24, 2005).
(In more positive Swift chart news, her "…Ready for It?," up 53-52 on the Hot 100 after debuting at No. 4 on the Sept. 23 chart, debuts on Radio Songs at No. 48 with 26 million in audience, up 10 percent; its official video arrives Thursday, Oct. 26. Plus, a third song from Swift's new album Reputation, due Nov. 10, should bow on next week's Hot 100: "Gorgeous," following its first full week of tracking after its early Oct. 20 release.)


Just beyond the Hot 100's top 10, four songs surge to the top 20: Gucci Mane's "I Get the Bag," featuring Migos (24-11); P!nk's "What About Us," from her new No. 1 album on the Billboard 200, Beautiful Trauma (23-13); Ed Sheeran's "Perfect" (22-18); and Camila Cabello's "Havana," featuring Young Thug (26-20, with its official video due to arrive tomorrow, Oct. 24).

Plus, two acts each earn their first top 40 Hot 100 hits: Dua Lipa, as "New Rules" rises 44-38, and Blackbear, whose "Do Re Mi" lifts 45-40.

Nice jump for What About Us! Likely peak but I think it still has a small shot to enter the top 10 if airplay continues to grow but nevertheless respectable run

Rockstar is so strong, maybe 6-8 weeks at #1 run?

I think it has a good chance to reach 8 weeks. The thing is: rockstar isn't strong yet. Actually, it's an weak #1 for 2017's standarts. It's far from its peak and it has a MV that's gonna be released soon.

[brady47]

Omg at "Look What You Made Me Do"'s dropping 5-20 on Radio Songs and 1-7 on Pop Songs! It's reminding me of "Chained to the Rhythm"'s crash going from #9 to #19 to out of the top 50.

I thought interest was being reignited last week when it hit #1 on pop songs, and went top 5 on airplay, and it's crashing hard.

[85la]

What gets me most about the LWYMMD situation is that Billboard must be completely complicit with it, and might even be one of the recipients of the payola. For sure they know what's going on, yet they allowed the fraudulent position to be published in their chart. It they aren't part of the scheme, it could be that they are highly suspicious of it and want to contest it, but have no "proof" yet, as they did go out of their way to mention the historic drops in the article, which they might not have done if they were part of it.

Great stats Gary! I'm surprised you were able to keep a record of something this detailed, kudos to you!

I think for drops out of the top 50, Chained to the Rhythm probably has one of the biggest ones "9-10-19-out of top 50" and maybe Landslide.

The bigger surprise is that it isn't Lecrae.

I'm not generally a conspiracy theorist, but a few things here are interesting.
Gary Trust mentions that for only the 2nd time in 25 years, a label (Republic) has had 3 Pop Songs (CHR) leaders in a row.
That's pretty rare.
And one of them - Demi's SNS (pushed by Republic) jumped the most spots to #1 in 3 years, with the chart's greatest increase in plays - just as label mate TS falls the steepest position plummet - also in 25 years.
Someone at Republic is pretty talented.

I guess that Puerto Rico charity single didn't make much of a lasting impact...

Frankly I think the LYWMMD drop should trigger someone looking more seriously at airplay manipulation.

But at least she showed Kanye!

Also for all this talk of “well it was just a buzz/event/whatever single” — those are all labels that get applied after the fact to justify underwhelming performances. Let’s stop pretending labels are trying to make songs *less* successful on purpose.

I like Becky G but the song is utter trash. The lyrics are terrible and Bad Bunny is basically useless, he annoys me with his voice.
Even with the lyrics being that trash, Im rooting for her because she deserves another hit.

I can see this becoming a moderate hit if she releases an english version (and doesnt sleep as Shakira did with Chantaje)

I'm not generally a conspiracy theorist, but a few things here are interesting.
Gary Trust mentions that for only the 2nd time in 25 years, a label (Republic) has had 3 Pop Songs (CHR) leaders in a row.
That's pretty rare.
And one of them - Demi's SNS (pushed by Republic) jumped the most spots to #1 in 3 years, with the chart's greatest increase in plays - just as label mate TS falls the steepest position plummet - also in 25 years.
Someone at Republic is pretty talented.

Odd how no one seems to think ‘PLayola’ involved with SNS despite the sudden and unexpected spin increase - despite the label connection. All they’re doing is following Country template. I’m surprised it’s taken this long for ‘max spins!’ ‘AirPower’ to hit the Pop format. I expect Republic won’t be the last
