In 2000, Aaliyah's Try Again was the first airplay-only #1 dethroning one of the weakest #1s of all-time (Maria Maria's 10th week: #8 in sales, #7 in airplay). Lucid Dreams might be the first (almost) streaming-only #1 (95% of its points are coming from streams) in 1-2 weeks dethroning the historically-weak #1 that is Psycho. Pretty sure Harlem Shake will always have that record. |

What percentage tho was from YouTube? Maybe, Harlem Shake had a higher streaming percentage (I don't know what was the 2013 Hot 100 formula), but it was still pretty big in sales. Lucid Dreams is #48 on HDS. |

Lucid Dreams: YouTube #2 I Like It: YouTube #3 To note, Lucid Dreams appears to be #1 since last Monday. For some reason, the numbers for Boo'd Up are currently messed up in the Artist YouTube Music Insights for Saturday and the song would have been #1 for that day. Lucid Dreams should end up #1 for the week. |

Weezer Returns to Hot 100 With Fan-Inspired Cover of Toto's 'Africa'
6/13/2018 by Xander Zellner
Weezer earns its first entry since early 2010.
Weezer scores its first entry on the Billboard Hot 100 chart (dated June 16) in over eight years, as the group's fan-inspired cover of Toto's classic "Africa" debuts at No. 89 (on the chart dated June 16). Toto's original topped the Hot 100 on Feb. 5, 1983.
Weezer's "Africa" debuts with 2.8 million U.S. streams (up 8 percent) and 28,000 downloads sold in its first full tracking week (ending June 7), according to Nielsen Music. It zooms 15-5 on the all-genre Digital Song Sales chart and lifts 9-8 on Hot Rock Songs.
Weezer last appeared on the Hot 100 with "(If You're Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To," which reached No. 81 in November 2009.
Before those two tracks, Weezer charted four prior Hot 100 entries: "Undone – The Sweater Song" (No. 57, 1994); "Beverly Hills" (No. 10, 2005); "Perfect Situation" (No. 51, 2006); and "Pork and Beans" (No. 64, 2008).
Weezer's "Africa" also enters the Alternative Songs airplay chart at No. 31, where it's the band's 28th entry, a sum that encompasses 14 top 10s, including three No. 1s.
Weezer's remake of "Africa" was sparked by a months-long viral campaign by a 15-year-old fan who heard Toto's original on Netflix's Stranger Things and wanted Weezer, her favorite band, to cover it. As a teaser, Weezer first released a cover of Toto's "Rosanna" (a No. 2 Hot 100 hit in 1982), which debuted at No. 29 on Hot Rock Songs a week ago (June 9), before rewarding its patient and passionate fan with "Africa" at last.
Meanwhile, Toto's original recording of "Africa" gains, up 3 percent to 5.4 million U.S. streams and 28 percent to 8,000 downloads sold in the tracking week. "'Africa” has taken on a life of its own." Toto's Steve Lukather marveled earlier this year upon the 35th anniversary of the song's Hot 100 coronation . "Nobody's laughing at it or appreciates it more than we do."
Weezer's 12th studio album Weezer (dubbed The Black Album) is expected later this year.

With Psycho starting to slip, it doesn’t look like The Middle will be dropping from #1 on radio anytime soon. This could hit the 10-week mark, which is astounding for a song that only reached #5 on the Hot 100. It looks like a near-lock for year-end #1 on CHR. On radio overall I think Ed will get it, but Zedd will be #2. How many weeks has The Middle been #1 so far? I think this is its fifth week. |

Future Wraps Fifth-Longest Hot 100 Charting Streak After 166 Weeks
News
By Trevor Anderson | June 13, 2018 3:07 PM EDT
Future
The departure of "King’s Dead" completes a run that began in April 2015.
Future wraps the fifth-longest charting streak ever on the Billboard Hot 100 as he departs the list dated June 2, his first absence after 166 consecutive weeks of boasting at least one song on the ranking.
The superstar rapper’s run began way back on April 18, 2015, when the single “Commas” debuted at No. 98, and lasted through the Black Panther soundtrack cut “King’s Dead,” with Jay Rock, Kendrick Lamar and James Blake, which peaked at No. 21 in March and left the chart after 20 weeks. In that span, Future landed 53 hits on the Hot 100 and pushed his career total to 68 charting entries.
Future’s stretch of 166 weeks is the fifth-best stint in Hot 100 history, dating to the chart’s inception on Aug. 4, 1958.
Here’s a look at the current leaderboard for most consecutive weeks on the Hot 100:
431, Drake
326, Lil Wayne
216, Rihanna
207, Nicki Minaj
166, Future
161, Chris Brown
159, JAY-Z
152, Nelly
150, Justin Bieber
Unsurprisingly, the list features several rap acts, who often provide guest verses in line with the collaborative nature of the genre. Similarly, Rihanna, Brown and Bieber, while not primarily rappers, are are often recruited to sing the main hooks on several pop and rap hits.
During his lengthy run, Future nabbed his first top 10 Hot 100 hit as a lead artist, “Mask Off,” which climbed to No. 5 in May 2017. It also ranked as his second-longest-charting tune in that window, with its 31 weeks on the chart trailing only “Low Life,” featuring The Weeknd, which posted 35 weeks.
The MC's constant hitmaking lined up with his steady output: He has released six studio albums since 2015, with five debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200: DS2 (2015); What a Time to Be Alive, a joint album with Drake (2015); Evol (2016); a self-titled set (2017); and HNDRXX (2017). His 2017 works also scored the Atlanta native a slice of chart history when he became the first act to debut two albums at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in consecutive weeks.

Dua Lipa's 'New Rules' Ties Record for Longest Run on Pop Songs Chart: 41 Weeks (We Counted 'Em)
News
By Gary Trust | June 13, 2018 2:54 PM EDT
The song matches the stay of Edwin McCain's "I'll Be" 20 years ago.
Dua Lipa's "New Rules" ties the record for the most weeks spent on Billboard's Pop Songs radio airplay chart, as it logs its 41st frame on the ranking (dated June 16).
The single, which topped Pop Songs for four weeks in February, matches the run of Edwin McCain's No. 10-peaking ballad "I'll Be" in 1998.
Rounding out the five longest-charting Pop Songs hits are three that each totaled 39 weeks: Goo Goo Dolls' "Slide" and "Iris" (both in 1998-99) and Real McCoy's "Another Night" (1994-95; the No. 1 song of the chart's first 25 years).
The Pop Songs survey measures total weekly plays, as tabulated by Nielsen Music, among its reporting panel of 158 mainstream top 40 stations.
Lipa additionally joins Iggy Azalea (in 2014) as the only women to chart three songs simultaneously in the Pop Songs chart's top 15: Along with "Rules" at No. 13, "One Kiss," with Calvin Harris, and her own "IDGAF" each rise a notch, to new highs of Nos. 14 and 15, respectively.
"Dua Lipa has developed into quite the pop radio force," says WBBM-FM (B96) Chicago assistant program director/music director Erik Bradley; the station leads all Pop Songs reporters with over 3,500 plays of "Rules" to date. The track "just will not go away," he muses. "It's consistently top five in all of our key research demos.
"It's the kind of song that pop radio needs to continue to thrive: great vocal, strong lyric, good tempo … the recipe for a classic pop song."

Are their any recurrent rules on the Billboard Pop Songs chart?

I know The Middle is predicted to be Pop Songs YE #1, but I think New Rules is a serious competitor.

As much as I like King’s Dead, Future sucks and I’m so glad his streak is over

I hope "I Like It" can get to #1 on the 6/30 chart then. Still excited for Scorpion, good to have an official release date.

I just hope something big happens soon because I am sooooo sick of this #1 song being 35000 points thing I know this sounds emo but it honestly makes me feel sorta like music is dying in a way. And this has nothing to do with how much I like the songs, I don't wanna sound like that guy who says music is DEAD because Lucid Dreams is a hit because that's stupid, there's always been crap. But these weeks where #1 is 35000 are just so depressing, really makes me feel like music as an art form is dying, like the newspaper. Like remember when 45,000 was a really weak #1 and would be even a weak #2? This year it's gonna be the average #1 and the #2's have been even worse, remember those like 12 weeks in a row where Perfect or Meant To Be was like 32000 and was at #2? #2 isn't supposed to be 32000, summer of last year that would have gotten to like #6. After Perfect fell the only times we've gotten two songs above 40000 were when Psycho debuted, when Nice For What debuted right as God's Plan was about to fall below 40000 then when This IS America did the same thing when Nice For What was about to fall below 40000! IDK I just want something big to come in that feels like it matters and honestly even if it's Lucid Dreams, it'll at least give is something to laugh at in 10 years like we do with You're Beautiful by James Blunt now

Scorpion is gonna be huge, Drake is gonna own the singles and album chart for the rest of the summer. I'm predicting either Nice For What or I'm Upset will be #1 the week of the album bomb, God's Plan will probably jump back into the Top 3. Imagine Drake having the entire Top 3!

And really Hot 100 points are so arbitrary lol. A song could have 75 million streams and be "only" 35,000 points with no radio/sales despite that clearly being one of the highest streaming ever. I would classify that song as a strong #1. |

I even think he can almost get the entire top 10/20 for himself,like Ed Sheeran almost did too in the Uk(divide album release week). There's a chance to do so,but which if his song will be at #1 after his album release?NFW,Gods Plan?or another song from the album?
