Billboard Hot 100: 01/23/2021

[gikem]

Morgan Wallen's double album, Saweetie & Doja Cat, ZAYN, Zara Larsson & Young Thug, and full tracking weeks for Taylor Swift's bonus tracks from evermore. Let's go!

[Groovy]

More eventful than last week that’s for sure.

interested to see whether taylor's gonna try and get 2 more hot 100 entries after the lakes failed to enter last round

[HeyHeyHey]

I think “Wasted On You” will be one of the higher placing Morgan Wallen songs on this chart. It has good playlisting, at least on Apple Music.

It’s also quite literally the first track on the album, so I predict it’ll be the biggest debut.

[Raccoon]

I honestly like this new Morgan Wallen album. Only 8 songs in but really nothing stood out to delete immideately.

I doubt it. Especially since it's only two bonus tracks.

It’s surprisingly performing very strong on YouTube. But I expect the real push to happen after the Super Bowl, including a Hot100 top 10 placement.

[dremolus - solarpunk]

Okay let's get Good Days and Best Friend to occupy the top two spots

It seems like it's off to a much stronger start compared to "In Your Eyes". I'm optimistic it can perform well - if not a top 10 hit, at least crack the top 20 like "In The Night" would be good enough.

[kimberly]

I'm obsessed

[gikem]

Also worth mentioning that Olivia Rodrigo (who charted briefly last year with All I Want) has released her debut single “drivers license” to some decent hype. We’ll see if it has the staying power to debut on the Hot 100 this week.

I hate to be that guy, but it's the second track on the album.

My bad. Blame the fact that I was posting it after midnight here in the Eastern time zone.

This will do well on tiktok for sure

[dremolus - solarpunk]

Really hope the album release is enough to save 7 Summers from getting caught between years. I still don't know why radio hasn't dropped More Than My Hometown for 7 Summers,

[Enyasurvivor]

Why are we giving Dr. Luke another hit? 🤮

On a better note - Nicole Scherzinger’s full discography is on US Spotify now. Does anyone know what other catalogs have been updated today?

[Baby Yoda Hot100Fan]

Not that I expect any impact on the Hot 100, but the #2 album on iTunes is a Barry Gibb album which has Country artists as features.

[Groovy]

^I don't know why they haven't pushed it either, it's the one song in my opinion with the most crossover potential and it got great streams too when it was released, I guess we gotta see how the album does with a full day of streaming. But yeah, they're really messing things up by not pushing 7 Summers on radio.

7 Summers is currently being worked on Country radio and has been for a while. It's currently #23 which is pretty good considering how slowly the Country radio charts move. MTMH went #1 and fell pretty quickly, likely to make room for 7S.

For some reason, Morgan’s singles tend to take longer to catch on at country radio and subsequently last longer than most. I think it has to do with how quickly the streaming crowd latches onto songs vs. how slowly country radio has pushed songs for years.

I don't know a thing about country radio, I was talking the pop radio where MTMH is still getting spins but if it's getting spins on country radio that's perfectly fine with me.

I don't think neither MTMH or 7S have been pushed to pop radio. If either one is getting any spins, it's stations playing it on their own.

I think 7 Summers could work at pop radio if they wanted something from the album to crossover.
