Before the album release, I didn't expect BMS to hit #1, but I thought it'd have more songs in the top 40/20, since the Hot 100 is really weak now.
Anyway, congrats to her, it's hard to stay relevant for so long.

We need to talk about how Winston for the last couple of months have been the most accurate hot 100 predictor…

For the first time in a while, the top 10 feels pretty fresh. Also, Big Freedia of all people now has two #1 hits without ever getting credited. Nice for what is the first?

There is no music video in the plan for BMS?

There is no music video in the plan for BMS? This is just my speculation, but I'm thinking "act ii" of Renaissance is a full visual album, and possibly act iii is a tour.

I'm assuming Woman, That's What I Want and Sweetest Pie dropped out this week but any others? Did Super Gremiln survive?

Thrilled for Beyoncé! Although the early part of the year was kind of a new music dead zone, ever since Harry debuted we’ve had a pretty exciting run of songs hitting the top ten and #1. Definitely has ended up being one of the more interesting years to be a chart watcher! The last 3 weeks especially have been great with Lizzo and Beyoncé being at #1, and the charts getting freshened. I hope Beyoncé gets another week at #1 next week, then Bad Habit takes over. Yep. I think Bad Habit is the next new #1 on the Billboard Hot 100.

I think Bad Habit is the next new #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Unless someone big releases and debuts at #1. I think it's only a matter of time before we start seeing singles from OR2, JB7, Dula Peep 3, and maybe R9. That last one is a big maybe, but you get my point.

Y’all and these damn acronyms.
Also, I think we’ll be fully done away with the Pandemic before we get another Rihanna album.

I GOT MY HEAD OUT THE SUNROOF I'm so happy that Sunroof hit the top ten. Let's get it to number 1! It's the perfect summer bop. Even as someone who really likes Sunroof, that’s unlikely. Focus on trying to get it to number-one on radio and Top 5 on the Hot 100 First.

Sunroof Top 10, Bad Habit Top 10, Break My Soul number one. Well that’s a bunch of Ws for me.

I'm confused by the digital #1 this week for a few reasons. www.billboard.com/music/chart-beat/jax-victorias-secret-hot-100-first-timers-1235123982/Debuts at No. 83 with 5.6 million U.S. streams (up 68%) and 7,000 downloads sold (up 35%) in the July 29-Aug. 4 tracking week, according to Luminate. It jumps 5-1 on the Digital Song Sales chart (which factors weekly sales and Complete My Album returns in the iTunes Store, and corresponding deductions to the volume of tracks purchased during the tracking week). Since when do CMA returns factor into the digital chart? But also...CMA? It doesn't look like she has an album at all and the song is standalone so far? ETA: Oh wait. I'm assuming they had that long part as a disclaimer just to say "don't @ us that beyonce is not on top." I thought it was relevant to the song since the article is about the song. Especially since the article about beyonce's song doesn't mention that at all. It just says "sold 13,000 downloads (up 113%)," so that would be...the points for the Hot 100 but NOT the number counted for Digital since it's before CMA, I guess? Very opaque.

How long before "Bad Habit" goes #1? Is that our big Fall smash?

It's been like that for ages, but prior to ~SOUR week, they actually added CMAs on top of the real sales number, which was insanely weird. So album releases artificially boosted pre-release singles, ala ME!, Rain On Me, Stupid Love, and a bunch of other songs that were way too high

Bad Habit feels like a surefire #1. Not only is it HUGE on streaming, but it’s also picking up radio traction fast, and on multiple formats.

Billboard said that Renaissance got 10 Top 50 hits this week, i’m pretty sure that’s enough for Super Gremlin to survive. Never Sleep debuting at #50 takes away a possible spot for SG. It's fate (along with What Happened To Virgil) aren't known at this time, but it has been confirmed that Sweetest Pie, Enemy, Woman, Boyfriend, and TWIW have all gone recurrent:

Seems like radio listenership has been steadily increasing these past few months. ADT is pulling very huge numbers considering the average was somewhere around 70 million. Every week, I see the numbers are higher than predicted because the difference between Nielsen and Mediabase is getting lower. Since streaming numbers are actually low overall, we're going to see radio weighting a lot in the near future. It's the one factor that's catching up.

Also, didn't anybody else think not mentioning what movement the song had on Digital Song Sales seemed a bit too convenient of an omission as well.

What Happened To Virgil 100% went recurrent this week. I mean if Sweetest Pie went recurrent, there’s a 99.9% chance it would go recurrent with it. Also, given how Super Gremlin was #39 last week, i’m gonna guess it’s at #46, given how 8 Beyoncé songs probably debuted above it and Enemy is confirmed recurrent.

I really wanted both Enemy and Boyfriand to survive this week. RIP. Also RIP to TWIW, Woman, and SP. You all lived good lives and will all be missed.
Also when will we know the status of WHTV and SG?
