Billboard Hot 100: 6/9/2018

[Choco]

Love Cardi and I Like It, and the video is great but I do wonder if it hasn't already burned a lot of demand with it's relative success so far. Aside from debuting inside the top 10 it has never left the top 30. It'll be hard for it to get a new peak.

It's Spanish (sorta) and it's summer. If Despacito can happen this can as well.

Imo psycho have a really good chance this week to hit no.1 with youtube help.

Pyshco is up to number two on iTunes and gaining in sales. It looks like Drake’s “I’m Upset” disappeared off of ITunes. It was number one on ITunes last I checked and now it was 123. It really free fell down the charts.

It's #17, and i'm sure it was much higher when you posted.

Hi, you just actually argued for the format’s removal at that point, because you know what format hasn’t counted for years? Physical single sales. In the years that I saw the numbers (2015-2017), the top song would get between 300 and 2,000 sales and less than 10 songs would cross the 3 digit mark in any week. There were so many ties and little interest that they even stopped doing that side chart sometime around the end of last year.

What? I said they shouldn’t remove a format just because numbers are low. Just because they apparently did just that doesn’t mean I suddenly agree with it? Who’s to say there won’t be another Candle in the Wind moment where a $1.99 physical cd single is suddenly made available at retailers all over that sells a million copies. They can’t not count that.

Agreed. It would be foolish. Especially since vinyl has been on the rise. And a lot of more niche or rock acts can still sell physical CDs, and even some digital albums. Removing sales would take rock music out of the charts almost entirely.

[hunterquigley]

Drake’s I’m Upset is back at ITunes after disappearing from the Top 200 today. Last I checked it was at 13 and steadily gaining up.

Why would they get rid of a form of measurement because it’s “irrelevant”? Even if iTunes is only used by 30 people, 30 people are still buying music from it. The impact is super small but it’s still there. I swear some of the suggestions people come up with are ridiculous lmao

Didn't there used to be a Jukebox chart? 

I think if we went a whole year where a component never made up more than 1% of a song's points, then it might be time to forget about that component. 

I've always been about being inclusive and accurate. But if the component is smaller than the general margin of error, then what's the point?

[Sherane Lamar]

Flacid Dreams basically sounds like Lil Xan if Lil Xan was good.

I have a bit more hope for it especially it's only just now being pushes as the next single. Most of its chart run up until now has been off hype. Considering the numbers the video has been doing and the fact that it just debuted on the Pop Songs chart, I could see this gaining over the summer.

Idk if this is relevant but umm Drake just got B O D I E D by Pusha T. Oh and the song cover is Drake in fucking black face with a Jim Crow shirt on. The year of Drake may be ending pretty soon unless Drake comes bavk with some No Vaseline level of reply.

Even if Drake fails to respond people will forget about this in a week and keep streaming Nice for What and God's Plan... Just like Nicki very clearly lost to Remy and yet Remy can't even crack the Hot 100.

Not yet (he will post it later today) but Simm has said this:

[annoymous1]

Did I Like it Lose Any points on Radio ?

Still gaining.

[rfucom]

Well the big factor here is spotify vs. Youtube. NfW lead by miles in spotify and psycho lead by miles in youtube.

i like it will jump big on next week chart because of the vid which is no.1 ob YT

[ur local neighborhood dbender]

My Predictions for next week:

1. Nice For What
2. I'm Upset (DEBUT)
3. Psycho
4. This Is America
5. God's Plan
6. The Middle
7. Boo'd Up
8. Fake Love
9. No Tears Left To Cry
10. Meant To Be

[Harx]

Would this be the week I Like It gets the video boost?

[Deleted]

Next week, “I Like It” will have a small boost due to the video for only 3 days. The following week it will have a full week with YouTube streams counting.

[lazer]

I wish Drake went back to his 2009-2015 days because at that time Drake was actually interesting, even songs I didn't like such as "Started From The Bottom" was sort of memorable. Nice For What was a refreshing song because it sounded different from what he did recently and sounded alive. His recent catalog, I'm Upset and Yes Indeed(which is not his song), shows that he sounds dead and not caring. I wish I'm Upset is the worst song off of Scorpion, I'm a very hopeful person. Drake has a lot of potential and is very talented but he needs to sound like he is feeling it and needs better production choices.

What do you mean I'm trolling? There was no trolling sense in it whatsoever. I was just giving my thoughts on what could possibly happen. It's my predictions. Also, wrong thread? Am I missing out on something here?

Huh. 

His collabs then like I'm On One, Pop That, All Me, etc were not any different than what was trendy for Hip-Hop lol. 

I guess maybe you just liked the trends more then.

You can forget about the "trend" part. I just think Drake sounded better in the 2009-2015 era. I just don't like him doing watered-down dancehall and minimalist trap. Too Good and God's Plan are an expection, I don't mind those songs.

BTW, I like all of the songs you listed.

Apologies for the overreaction, im a drake stan so its been a rough day and a half for me. Just that we have a separate thread for predictions and you have "im upset" debuting unbelievably high

Maybe at some point it isn’t worth the time and money to count a metric? I assume there are costs involved on some level (at a minimum paying someone to get the information), and a certain point it wouldn’t be worth it. Are jukebox plays still counted? They still exist.

[inverse]

Fake Love is definitely not going up, it's gonna fall and probably miss the YE list.

I hope NTLTC can hit top 5, it should pass Meant To Be sometime soon and hopefully Yes Indeed gets dropped the same way those Meek Mill songs did in 2015

[hot100predictions]

Drake has a son. He wanted his overnight, "toy" to get abortion for him. That is what Pusha's song, "The Story of Adidon" is about. Read the article: www.tmz.com/2018/05/30/drake-pusha-t-baby-diss-track-revealed-adonis/. I also removed Drake off of my profile pic and replaced it with promo for Ariana's new album.
