HOT 100 20.08.25 #45
TOP TEN:
10. Soda Pop – Saja Boys (Up 4/NEW PEAK/7 weeks in chart)
9. A Bar Song (Tipsy) - Shaboozey (Up 1/70 weeks in chart)
8. Just In Case - Morgan Wallen (Down 1/21 weeks in chart)
7. Lose Control – Teddy Swims (Up 2/104 weeks in chart)
6. Daisies – Justin Bieber (Down 1/5 weeks in chart)
5. Love Me Not – Ravyn Lenae (Up 1/NEW PEAK/20 weeks in chart)
4. Your Idol – Saja Boys (Up 4/NEW PEAK/8 weeks in chart)
3. What I Want – Morgan Wallen/Tate McRae (Up 1/13 weeks in chart)
2. Golden – Huntr/X/Ejae/Audrey Nuna/Rei Ami (Down 1/8 weeks in chart)
1. Ordinary - Alex Warren (Up 1/10 weeks, No. 1/27 weeks in chart)
NEW ENTRIES:
99. Many Nights – Gunna (6.9/10)
94. Wgft – Gunna/Burna Boy (6.4/10)
87. GP - Gunna (7.2/10)
86. Lost - Bailey Zimmerman/The Kid Laroi (5.7/10)
An unexpected collaboration despite it playing out exactly the way I thought it would. Bailey brings the energy of a high-country rock song, and The Kid Laroi adds his touch and tone, ticking the boxes in a really boring way. Neither act delivered something apart from the usual message of feeling lost, and, as already said, just basically everything you'd expect from these two.
81. Bowery – Zach Bryan/Kings Of Leon (7/10)
Turns out Zach's style just needed a little rock push with an old tint that was flavoured through use of guitar; it's definitely something that Zach should try and make more of.
80. Let That Sink In - Gunna (6/10)
72. At My Purest – Gunna/Offset (6.9/10)
70. Sakpase - Gunna (8/10)
68. Forever Be Mine – Gunna/Wizkid (5.3/10)
49. Hell At Night – BigXthaPlug/Ella Langley (6.3/10)
BigXthaPlug's fanbase seems angry about his switch to country music, and honestly, I'm not mad, but it definitely doesn't work. Ella gives a half-decent performance that sounds like it needs more flavour, and BigX gives a usual rap part from him that feels like it could be on a different song. Please return to rap.
46. Just Say Dat - Gunna (7.3/10) [1.7+ score]
I admit that Gunna's drum trap loop can often feel repetitive and get tiring, but to me it wasn't bad to start with and still isn't now. I actually enjoy how chill he is on the beat and how easily his flow lands on the beat. Good song.
