A few obstacles for “Kill Bill” to go #1. First of all, is still has “Flowers” to contend with. Secondly country songs have always been forces to be reckoned with on YE charts. Thirdly there have been several YE #1s that only burst onto the scene in March or April like “Last Night” did, i.e. “Boom Boom Pow”, “Rolling in the Deep”, “Somebody that I Used To Know”, “Old Town Road”, so it’s not an insurmountable gap.

But then there's "As It Was" last year despite having 15 weeks at #1 (and bursts to the Hot 100 by April too) losing the YE #1 to "Heat Waves" that benefitted from the longevity, but to be completely fair, the competition this year was definitely strong compared to last year, with "Kill Bill", "Last Night", and "Flowers" all being viable contenders ("Anti-Hero" being the dark horse contender)

Yes “As It Was” is definitely a counter-example. So are “Stay” and “Closer”. I’m not saying LN will get the #1 but you really can’t write it off.

Remember in 2019, we also had a race between an alt-R&B-pop girl from New Jersey and a song about flowers, before a country song that was on nobody’s radar fort he first few months of the year blew up suddenly and snagged the #1. What’s to stop history from repeating itself in 2023? On the other hand, never bet against a Cyrus in this kind of race.

Ella Baila Sola is predicted to gain 29% this week, verses Last Night predicted to decline 2% and Kill Bill falling as well. Obviously it's a potential #1 contender in the near future. Yes, of course it may just stop surging next week but we don't know that yet, so for now we have to consider it a possibility.

Would love to see Ella Baila Sola go #1 as it is a great song, but I'm not sure it will quite be able to make it there if radio continues to snub it. Yes it has incredible streaming, but it has a bad paid:free ratio and the song might reach its peak on streaming sooner than later. I think at minimum though it should peak at least #4, maybe top 3, which is already well beyond what I ever expected for the song at first. Also Un x100to by Grupo Frontera & Bad Bunny should make the top 10 this week. While it's looking like that song is peaking already streaming wise, I think it also will have strong YE chances.

It would be really crazy if Ella Baila Sola went to #1 and then Un x100to dethroned it the week after that. The 2020s decade so far had so many historic moments happen probably close to having more than the 2010s already.

If this year's YE Top 3 ends up being the same way as the 2019 YE, with the country song leading (Last Night), then the song about flowers at #2, then a song by an alt-R&B-pop girl from New Jersey at #3 (Kill Bill), that'll be crazy.

Hey, you can even throw "Anti-Hero" at #4, as the 2019 YE #4 also happen to have a negative word in the song title (Bad Guy)

It’d also be funny if say, “Unholy” finished at #14 like “Dancing with a Stranger” did, or “Chemical” blows up and becomes #5 like “Wow”. Or what about “Creepin”? A common synonym for “creepy” is “sick”. So #9 finish like “Sicko Mode”? Heck, toss in a reunited superstar boy band at #10 (Sucker) or an iconic alternative act having a mainstream resurgence at #11 (High Hopes). Maybe a song with 7 in its title finishes at 7 again, like “7 Rings” did.

EBS is getting attention because of Peso Pluma, not Eslabon Armado. So color me skeptical they can pull Bad Bunny numbers. Also the decision to release the album on a Thursday will dilute any chart impact it makes.

1. I never said they can pull Bad Bunny numbers and no one did so I don't know why you mentioned that
2. Eslabon Armado debuted in the Top 10 with their last album at No. 9 and got decent streams for it. They also have chart history with Jugaste y Sufri which currently has 364M streams on Spotify.

What I meant to ask is, how much of a threat will they pose to Morgan, both on the 200 and the H100?

The first three scenarios are a bit possible, though I feel like "Unholy" may stick long enough to be in the Top 10 in the YE, or if it didn't, miss out on landing at #14, so it means it's #11-#13.

It's quite fun we are almost in May and we've still got 4 contenders for year-end #1. I feel that maybe Last Night is most likely just based on that Need You Now and Meant To Be which were pop/country crossover hits that didn't even reach #1 got #2 and #4 iirc, but Last Night wasn't around for the few months so that hurts it.

It really depends on the longevity of Anti-Hero, Kill Bill, Last Night and Flowers. Whether any of them go viral in the next few months or whether there's an album bomb which puts any of them into recurrence early could make all the difference.

LN looks like it’ll be even bigger than NYN and MTB will be. It could also be a super-sized Body Like a Back Road which hit #8 in 2017 on a #6 peak, and also wasn’t around for the first few months of the year.

Just dropping by to say Peso Pluma outdid himself and now currently has 8 songs simultaneously charting at the Hot 100 this week, mostly fueled by streams only:

#5 (+5) - Ella Baila Sola (with Eslabon Armado) (2023)
#12 (+5) - La Bebe (with Yng Lvcas) (2023)
#32 (+19) - Por Las Noches (2021)
#35 (+14) - PRC (with Natanael Cano) (2023)
#40 (+13) - AMG (with Gabito Ballesteros and Natanael Cano) (2022)
#59 (+28) - El Azul (with Junior H) (2023)
#88 (new) - Chanel (with Becky G) (2023)
#90 (new) - Igualito A Mi Apa (with Fuerza Regida) (2022)

Pluma is credited as popularizing the genre corridos tumbados in the United States, mixing regional Mexican music with trap/urban elements. He is challenging to break this achievement again next week by possibly charting two more songs as the following debuts in the Bubbling Under Hot 100 this week:

#6 - El Tsurito (with Junior H and Gabito Ballesteros) (2023)
#11 - Siempre Pendientes (with Luis R Conriquez) (2022)

It's quite fun we are almost in May and we've still got 4 contenders for year-end #1. I feel that maybe Last Night is most likely just based on that Need You Now and Meant To Be which were pop/country crossover hits that didn't even reach #1 got #2 and #4 iirc, but Last Night wasn't around for the few months so that hurts it.

It really depends on the longevity of Anti-Hero, Kill Bill, Last Night and Flowers. Whether any of them go viral in the next few months or whether there's an album bomb which puts any of them into recurrence early could make all the difference.

LN looks like it’ll be even bigger than NYN and MTB will be. It could also be a super-sized Body Like a Back Road which hit #8 in 2017 on a #6 peak, and also wasn’t around for the first few months of the year.

It’s been a while since we’ve had a stan trolling here. It’s a first I like the artist they’re being annoying about… which isn’t as nice lol

Then what am I supposed to do? Downplay his success?

I love Morgan Wallen too but there are 80 or so other artists charting right now

There are, but not all of them are going to have the same success he is. I'm not saying he's favored to get the YE #1 but he can't be written off either.

None of us are asking that? In fact, no one is downplaying his success?

Drem is right. This board might still have some people going “ew country man getting hits” which I get is annoying… but not a soul is saying Last Night and OTAT aren’t smash hit songs and albums. It’s a one sided argument you’re making

[wavey.]

What is even going on ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

[thatpolishboy]

Does Karma by Taylor need to re-enter in top 50 or should we except it to re-enter in the next few weeks near the bottom and slowly climb?

Then what is wrong with me pointing out the fact that "Last Night" is a serious contender for year end #1?
