TikTok has turned so many great songs into hits... surely the most harmless of all social media. what's your beef OMF?

quite an achievement when 40% of the Top 10 is just BAD BUNNY.

I assume it won’t move up much, if at all, next week because of Kendrick. But it should be headed to the top five, and possibly even #1, after that.

Has the curse of @VoR finally reversed?

Purple Disco Machine remix



this really brings out the disco banger the original didn't have the RANGE to BE!

 

[straightorbroken]

Her pastiche has mega pow

 

[straightorbroken]

Seriously good!

 

[FetchFugly]

Good ol PDM. This is, not entirely surprisingly, a significant improvement.

 

[POP!]

New Hot 100 peak of #5 this week.

 

[Pipo]

Congratulations Lizzo for this ORGANIC hit.

The SHADE

 

[Cerro de Casa]

I was trying the TikTok dance the other day, such fun!

 

[POP!]

New song "Grrrls" is out

 

[FetchFugly]

Well that is shit. Being only two minutes long is a mercy.

 

[funky]

Well she’s definitely not 2 for 2 is she

 

[FetchFugly]

Song not very good and offensive with it (though allegedly less so in the United States):

[Pipo]

oh this bops a bit

 

[Pipo]

What's you highlight off this masterpiece Mopsy?

 

[FetchFugly]

It is definitely a more enjoyable listening experience than the last album.

2 Be Loved is the stand out. I quite liked the one that sampled Private Number too.

 

[funky]

Is the rest of the album very 80s leaning? The two main singles are like a mid 80s Chaka Khan album and I definitely need more

When we get a Love Of A Lifetime, let me know!

There is a handful of '70s/´80s pastiche sounding tracks scattered around. There's a Mark Ronson track that samples Lauryn Hill which is lovely too!

In a minute
I'mma needa
Sentimental
Man or woman to



OK OK I KNOW IT'S OLD NOW

2 Be Loved (Am I Ready) is great! From Max Martin and his gang. Next single I assume

 

[POP!]

The album is projected to open with 75-85k units in the US, which should give it a #2 debut. I expected it to make more of an impact on streaming. Maybe it will have longevity like the last album.

Next week is probably the best shot for "About Damn Time" to hit #1.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

God the US charts are always so slow

 

[POP!]

 

[Cerro de Casa]

It’s about DAMN TIME

 

[POP!]

 

[Pipo]

37 million streams equal, more or less, 30,000 units sold?

I think so. I think paying spotify users' streams are also worth double, or something. The charts are constructively fanfic these days.

I Was asking because it's ridiculously LOW! Fuck how the charts work these days, fuck them right.

 

[Loufoque]

2 Be Loved is that girl

Send it to #1 for months

 

[Apoca]

A Lizzo, Harry Styles, Kate Bush US Billboard Top 3.

It's more than the world deserves in this rotten year.
