It's been a very hot minute since we've heard from Justin Bieber. He hasn't been seen on Hits 1 since Honest with Don Toliver in 2022, which was an insanely forgettable song. He just released his new album SWAG and he's here with DAISIES. I listened to his new album and it really sucked. It was just full of weird boring crap. And DAISIES is no exception. This is just very boring and forgettable. Justin said he was going to release a more pop-focused album sometime this year or next year, so let's hope it's better than this piece of garbage album.

We have more Machine Gun Kelly with vampire diaries. This is a pretty fun pop punk song, but it's kinda forgettable and not nearly as good as cliché.

d4vd has teamed up with some random nobody named jasontheween with Summer Uptown. Apparently jasontheween is some Twitch streamer. Really Hits 1, we're picking up on Twitch streamer music now? The production is pretty fun and they both sound good, but this is super forgettable.

After taking a break for awhile, BLACKPINK are finally back with JUMP. This is so much better than that piece of crap Pink Venom from 2022. The production slaps and the girls sound great as always.

KATSEYE replace themselves with Gabriela. This is yet another forgettable song from them that's just gonna drop out of hitbound next week.

Hits 1 is still tying to make Thomas Day a thing. He's back with she got a thing about her. Sleep When We're Dead was so much better than this. This is just forgettable as hell.

Finally, we have an amazing debut for once. AJR are finally back after not making any music for a year and a half. Betty is probably one of their more forgettable songs, but the production and lyrics are still amazing as per usual. They're releasing a new EP in 2 months so let's hope the others songs are better than this.

Ending things off, we have more Conan Gray. He used to be good, but after Lonely Dancers his music has gotten very weird and boring. Vodka Cranberry is forgettable as hell and Conan's voice doesn't sound that great here.

Exits:

• All Time Low - SUCKERPUNCH [4]
• KATSEYE - Gameboy [2]
• Jessie Murph - Touch Me Like a Gangster [5]
• Benson Boone - Mr Electric Blue [3]
• Kesha - THE ONE [2]
• Twenty One Pilots - The Contract [4]
• Lizzo/SZA - IRL [2]
• Lorde - Shapeshifter [2]

THE ONE finds itself in the abyss. And the other songs won't be missed.

2025 total dropouts: 106

Estimated total for 2025: 178 (+8)

Abyss

Kesha - THE ONE [1]

Mariah The Scientist - Burning Blue [2]

Ed Sheeran/Arijit Singh - Sapphire [2]

Ed Sheeran - Drive [3]

Tate McRae - Revolving door [3]

Avril Lavigne/Simple Plan - Young & Dumb [4]

Damiano David - The First Time [7]

Shinedown - Three Six Five [9]

Maren Morris - lemonade [9]

Billie Eilish - WILDFLOWER [10]

Kendrick Lamar - Not Like Us [19]

Lady Gaga - Disease [23]

Harry Styles - Daylight [164]

she got a blurb about her:

No debuts means no exits so nothing to talk about there.

This was a very active week despite having no exits. A ton of big jumps and drops.

RIP to Just Keep Watching. RIP to Anxiety also but it's gotten old so it probably needs to leave soon.

Finally, it's about damn time Busy Woman and Abracadabra left the top 10.

undressed entered the top 10. I guess I'm fine with this.

Messy and twilight zone really did not need to enter the top 10.

Um, why did End of the World reenter the top 5? It got purged from mediabase over a month ago and it's gotten super annoying.

Manchild jumped to #3. I really hope this doesn't jump to #1 next week, but it probably will.

Azizam jumped to #2 this week. Hopefully this can finally get #1 after being robbed for a few months now.

Nice to see Sally, When The Wine Runs Out staying at #1 this week. Unfortunately, I don't see this staying at #1 for too much longer.

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