Yeah. Their tweet says J. Cole will debut all 12 tracks in the top 40 but Drake had 20/25 tracks off Scorpion in the top 40 the week it was released and 17 of those songs were debuts. I guess the record only refers to albums that have had ALL their tracks debut in the top 40. If that's the case, 5 songs off Scorpion missed the mark.

They meant first album with 10+ tracks where all tracks are in top 40. Scorpion did not. March 14, Final fantasy, Ratchet HB, After dark, Finesse did not made the top 40. Link.

I know. I got that lol.

For the first time in awhile, I'm rooting for J. Cole lmao. Let's kill Blinding Lights!

[thegreatdivine]

If J. Cole debuts 3 new songs in the top 10 (with i n t e r l u d e) remaining in the top 10 for a second week and both good 4 u/Seeing Green manage to debut in the top 10, we could have 5/6 new entries in the top 10. That would be so refreshing to see, even if only for a week.

Death to Blinding Lights! Especially since the Weeknd has another top 10 hit with Save Your Tears. I'm tired of seeing Blinding Lights on the Hot 100 at all. Countless other songs that could take it's spot.

[Groovy]

Let's see if this actually happens though

[iHype.]

Can't Blinding Lights just come back lol?

He's performing at Billboard Music Awards and the song will sweep awards since it's based on Billboard charts obviously. All that should give it notable gains that week...and the fact it's a Billboard event they'll probably want to publicize its boosts and whatnot.

Yes if it qualifies for the top 25

Blinding lights btw has already been recurrent fir one week

[Baby Yoda Hot100Fan]

^In theory it should be able to do so if in the top 25 in the week after that. We'll see how it plays out ...

[dremolus - solarpunk]

Haven't they barred songs that cross the 52/25 rule from ever coming back (outside of the Christmas freeze)? I remember last year Someone You Loved had enough points to come back after it went re-current but they didn't allow it.

I feel like with limited exceptions, they're pretty strict with the rule. The only other song I can remember they allowed to re-enter besides Blinding Lights, were Wake Me Up! following Avicii's death and Uptown Funk! after the Superbowl.

[Gary]

We will see I guess

Bizarrely, Wake Me Up returned to #34, below the top 25. I guess Billboard allowed it to return either because (a) the song had charted in an era where the 52/25 rule didn't exist yet, or (b) that was the week of J. Cole's album bomb for KOD, and it would have returned to the top 25 if that didn't happen.

[Baby Yoda Hot100Fan]

^Actually, I think they made an exception. Similar to that, Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah debuted at #59 after his passing away, even though they could have applied the top 50 recurrency rule because it was an older song.

Who is gonna correct Talk of the Charts and tell them this isn't accurate? Scorpion debuted 17 songs in the Hot 100 top 40 if I'm not mistaken.

The tweet refers to all tracks charting in the top 40, not just some. While Scorpion did have more, it did not have all, and THAT is what it is referring to.

This seems to be katy perry stans' happy place, pikaa piiikaaaa 😂😂💀

People are not even watching the Grammys anymore, so the viewership for that is going to be nearly non existent. Blinding Lights is going to return to the charts if it is somehow bumped next week, though

I know. I got that.

[gikem]

"m y . l i f e" is now #1 on Apple Music. This might give us an idea of how J. Cole's songs will fall on Spotify tomorrow and, in turn, how they'll do on the Hot 100.

[Ｓｏｕｎｄｃｌ🕤ｃｋ]

Drake's Scorpion had 13 songs in the top 25, I don't think J Cole is capable of that.

[korbel16]

Any other week would of been a good week for good 4 u, since it debuted with more streams than Deja vu

[atg]

Hopefully Olivia can bring deja vu up to #7 so i can make the fact that both her song and J Cole’s Deja Vu peaked there. Maybe while we’re here, we could have good 4 u peak at #5 so that it could be a coincidence with Selena’s Good For You.

[ZERO]

Also interested to see how those Internet Money & Migos songs are gonna do. I doubt the former will have a "Lemonade" type of rise every week so they might be bust out the radio early on that one.
For the latter... well, seems like people actually enjoy it, so it might just stick around like "Need It" did last year

[purp child]

Does anyone here still make that chart with the US stream consumption numbers? I remember during the pandemic around March 2020 someone was making the graph where it shows the total consumption and was tracking it for some months

[otaviohmg]

i can't wait to come wednesday (prediction day)

[tekkenguy]

How many new entires do we need in the top 25 to push The Weeknd out?

[Gary]

probably 13, its only an out for a week thing anyway - so even if it happens, not a big deal, most of those new entries won't stick around that long

[degen]

So I guess I’m the first to say Nicki’s numbers are pretty good? For a re-release of a mixtape the numbers are pretty solid. 1.4 million for “Seeing Green” is a good start.

Certainly better streaming than I'm used to in recent years from Nicki. I doubt it'll stick around for too long, though.

Also, do we know if the songs that were on the original mixtape (i.e. not Seeing Green or Fractions) won't chart unless they're in the top 50 since they were first released in 2009, or will they count anyway since they're technically 2021 re-releases (possibly excluding the remix of Best I Ever Had)?

[tekkenguy]

Will J. Cole be #1 on the Hot 100 next week?
