Debuts:

Our only debut comes from Lil Nas X, Star Walkin'. This song is incredible. The production is super cool, and Nas's flow is amazing.

Hitbound:

Evergreen (You Didn't Deserve Me At All) - Omar Apollo 

Heartbeat - Shawn Mendes (Debut)

TWO SUGARS - Tai Verdes 

uh oh - Tate McRae (Debut)

Mistakes - 24kGoldn (Debut)

Heaven to Me - Havanna Winter

Celestial - Ed Sheeran (Debut)

Monster - Leah Kate (Debut)

Common - Quinn XCII/Big Sean 

Best Friends - 5 Seconds of Summer 

Tripping Over Air - Aidan Bissett 

HEARTFIRST - Kelsea Ballerini

I'm Not Dead Yet - Mike Posner 

I Remember - Cheat Codes/Russell Dickerson 

Staying Alive - DJ Khaled/Drake/Lil Baby 

Sex, Drugs, Etc. - Beach Weather

Shawn Mendes is back with Heartbeat. This song is from the movie Lyle Lyle Crocodile. This song is really fun and catchy and Shawn sounds great.

Tate McRae is back with uh oh. Everyone seems to really like this one, but I'm mixed on this. The production is kinda cool but not really that interesting, but Tate does sound really good.

Next is 24kGoldn with Mistakes. 24kGoldn is usually known for his upbeat and fun songs, and this song is neither. I was expecting this song to pick up...and it never does. It's just the same guitar chord over and over. And is it just me, or does this sound very similar to New Light by John Mayer?

Ed Sheeran making an EDM song? He needs to start making more, because this one's a bop. The buildup and drop and nice, and Ed sounds great as always.

Leah Kate is back with Monster. C'mon Leah, you can do better than this! Life Sux and Twinkle Twinkle Little B**** were amazing, and Monster was really disappointing. It's just a basic trap beat. Shawn Mendes and Justin Bieber's Monster is way better than this one.

Exits:

Unholy - Sam Smith/Kim Petras

29 - Demi Lovato

Wrapped Around Your Finger - Post Malone 

BILLIE EILISH. - Armani White 

29 was terrible, Unholy might be back since it's still on the survey, and the rest are in the abyss.

Abyss:

Wrapped Around Your Finger - Post Malone 

BILLIE EILISH. - Armani White 

Unstoppable - Sia 

Bad Decisions - Benny Blanco/BTS/Snoop Dogg 

Die For You - The Weeknd 

Power (Remember Who You Are) - SPINALL/Summer Walker/DJ Snake/Äyanna 

MANIAC - Macklemore/Windser

Wasted On You - Morgan Wallen 🤠

WAIT FOR U - Future/Drake/Tems 

Bigger Than Me - Louis Tomlinson 

SNAP - Rosa Linn

Daylight - Harry Styles

Star Blurbin':

This week we lost Grand. I'm really surprised it lasted this long, it was in the bottom 5 in airplay for almost its entire run.

Why is Until I Found You still here? It's super irrelevant. 

Week 12 of asking ⛪ to go away.

Week 16 of asking So Boring to go away.

World's Smallest Violin and Forget Me both made huge plus 10 jumps, I'm very happy for the former, and Waffle must be very excited about the latter.

I Like You (An Overplayed Song) really needs to go away too.

I Ain't Worried made a nice jump to #3

2 Be Loved (Am I Annoying) is still blocked from #1, which I'm okay with.

Wow, I was expecting MFASR to be #1 this week, but Charlie managed to hold him off for another week.

That's it for now, see you all next week!
