So it looks like yesterday's update was somewhat of an outlier.

8(=) The Weeknd - Blinding Lights 86.52(+0.32)

Except that "BL" gains yet again. I can't.

[jenglisbe]

As much as we talk about radio hanging onto songs (and I'm one of them), the Spotify top 50 has plenty of songs that have been around forever:
"Blinding Lights"
"Mood"
"Sweater Weather" (it has been ahwile since the TikTok resurgence)
"Rockstar"
"Laugh Now Cry Later"
"Circles"
"Lucid Dreams"

Biggest Gains (50K+): Wants and Needs, What's Next

[Baby Yoda Hot100Fan]

^Let's see if Sweater Weather is still as well next week as this. With Spring coming, it will eventually have to go into hibernation ...

[thegreatdivine]

dremolus - solarpunk finally, What's Next breaks the Spotify curse and gains some streams! ^__^

literally how is jeng wrong, that song has been in the top 50 forever. sure it drifts out sometimes, but still

also "you broke me first" can be added to that list. that song has crazy impressive longevity on spotify

Start of a new era?

Technically it's third single time if "my future" and "Therefore I Am" make the cut. She looks weird with the blonde even tho it's her natural color.

Whether "No Time to Die" and "everything I wanted" show up on any version is anyone's guess.

Up is now #3 on iTunes

everything i wanted won a Record of the Year Grammy, there's no way it doesn't end up somewhere. my future and Therefore I Am also seemed like singles and Billie isn't really known to waste songs so I bet they make the cut as well. I could see the album out in time for summer.

The good thing with Billie is that she doesn't need some huge smash hit single to kickstart an era. All her songs will gain massive streams overtime and it'll all even out. Can't wait for the album.

[strongerq]

^ "everything I wanted" is on WWAFAWDWG

It's only on the Target exclusive CD. I'm assuming they'll include it on her upcoming album alongside "my future" and "Therefore I Am".

Yeah, probably just a recalibration/adjustment. It happens all the time, surprised no one mentioned it.

more like Scarlett Johansson tbh.

Can't wait for her new era, and more songs like bad guy and YSSMIAC (I hope).

[goldentakes]

Do people think that any songs from Scary Hours II will actually make it onto Certified Lover Boy? I know God's Plan was on Scorpion but I wasn't sure if that was always planned or they just tacked it on because it blew up.

I doubt it. What's Next leaked about a week before it dropped and he shot a video last minute before dropping it. The other 2 songs seem to be tracks he added to hold fans over while he finishes the album. I don't even think Laugh Now Cry Later makes it on the album at this rate.

[iHype.]

I think Laugh Now Cry Later, What’s Next, and Wants & Needs are all making the album.

The album would already have 4 top 3 hits if all those + Lemon Pepper were included lol.

[iamsorare]

Cardi is going #1 yeah!she is going to make history.2 solo number one rap songs,5 number one hits overall

[Mayman]

I think Laugh Now Cry Later and What's Next will make the album. Maybe they'll include Wants and Needs if it becomes a bigger hit.

[Lost In Musical Reverie]

You know what? Since "Leave The Door Open" is more likely to top the charts after this week, I'm rooting for "Up". Cardi's performance was one of the highlights of the Grammys this year, and "Up" is a great song in its own right as well.

And I really want Cardi to make history for female rap - let's go! 🔥

I doubt Drake looks at it that way tbh. Summer Sixteen debuted at #6 and wasn't included on Views. Diplomatic Immunity debuted at #7 and wasn't included on Scorpion. I doubt he's throwing any song on his album simply because it reached the top 10.

He'll probably score 4+ top 10 hits whenever the album drops anyways so I doubt he's that concerned with have x amount of top 10 hits on the album. I'm only saying this because between 2019 when he said he had started working on the album and his recent trip to the Bahamas, it seems like he has re-worked the album a couple of times now. I won't be surprised if the final product sounds nothing like all the songs he's released thus far.

His added reluctance to give a particular time frame on when the album might be dropping is also a hint that he probably hasn't kicked off the era yet. It still feels like he's yet to release the lead single off it (to me at least).

I don't like "Up" but I'm rooting for it just to piss off conservatives who are all offended by Cardi

The difference is Summer Sixteen & Diplomatic Immunity were not hits whatsoever. They sank after the first week. Same story with Lemon Pepper which is why I believe it won’t be making the album.

However Laugh Now, What’s Next, and Wants & Needs will all be decent sized hits that chart for multiple months. It makes sense to include them.

I heavily doubt he would not include a song that spent nearly 20 weeks top 10. Laugh Now Cry Later is what Hotline/Started from the Bottom were. Way before the album release, but still important hits and his return back following previous eras.

What’s Next got a whole music video, is a #1 hit and the album is just months away. I doubt that’s not included either.

Wants and Needs is probably gonna be a sleeper hit that is dominating Urban/Rhythmic radio right around album release, so again, it also makes sense to include.
