Teddy Swims is back with another single Break Up In Reverse. I mean, the lyrics are nice, and the production is decent, but this is way too boring and forgettable. Not nearly as great as Mr. Know It All.

Oh joy, Midlessi Rose is back with another song. And to no one's surprise, it's mid. Dependent is mid as hell, not much to say.

Knox replaces himself with After The After Party. This is a nice little alt rock song from him, but it's pretty forgettable and not as great as Long Story Short.

We have a new Malcolm Todd single called I Just Got Mad. Uh, I don't know how to feel about this yet. This is somehow even more weird than Earrings, but also more boring. Yeah, I think I'd rather stick to Earrings.

Finally, we have a great debut for once. ROLE MODEL is back with another single Joy from his upcoming album. This is yet another banger from him. Hopefully this can end up debuting the countdown unlike High Hopes 3000.

Exits:

• Ravyn Lenae - Saturday Night [2]
• Olivia Rodrigo - stupid song [4]
• LE SSERAFIM/ILLIT/KATSEYE - ICONIC BY MISTAKE [4]
• Knox - Long Story Short [6]

stupid song and ICONIC BY MISTAKE find themselves in the abyss. Long Story Short and Saturday Night won't be missed.

2026 total dropouts: 114

Estimated total for 2026: 185 (+1)

Abyss

Olivia Rodrigo - stupid song [1] [New]

LE SSERAFIM/ILLIT/KATSEYE - ICONIC BY MISTAKE [1] [New]

Audrey Hobert - Sue me [2]

Noah Kahan - Orbiter [2]

ROLE MODEL - High Hopes 3000 [3]

Alex Warren - PASSENGER [3]

SIENNA SPIRO - Material Lover [4]

Ella Langley - Be Her [6]

Blurb in Reverse:

Just one exit, Drive Safe. Good riddance. I don't know why Hits 1 let this random non-radio single become a thing. This wasn't even a hit anywhere else. And I have no idea how this lasted 5 months on the countdown and ended up in the top 10. Goodbye, you will not be missed.

Just when Sexy For Me finally escaped the bottom 5, it fell back down to the bottom 5. RIP.

Nice to see House Tour getting a big jump.

Choosin' Texas is getting quite annoying and doesn't still need to be in the top 10, especially when it's dropped so much in airplay.

I Knew It, I Knew You didn't need to stay all the way up at #3.

Nice to see FEVER DREAM back in the top 5.

drop dead is still #1 for 6 weeks in a row. Yeah we really need a new song at #1. Hopefully it's Mr. Know It All and doesn't end up getting blocked from #1.

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