New Entrants

-At #40 we have the return of Hailee Steinfeld with Most Girls. Hailee Steinfeld has been all over the place this year. First we have Starving, which was really bad, considering the fact that I hate the chopped up verses. And then Hailee Steinfeld sings in At My Best, which I actually liked, but flopped unfortunately, which is kind of ironic considering that that song left this week. And this song, I guess is okay. I mean, I like the vocals, but the production is sluggish. I probably won't hate the song unless it's extremely overplayed, but this doesn't sound like the song that would become a huge hit.

-After Bon Appetit was a huge failure, Katy Perry returns with Swish Swish. Nicki Minaj doesn't really give anything good to the production. Her vocals aren't that good, and the production obviously wasn't well done. Katy Perry doesn't really do anything in this song either. Overall, the vocals are mediocre, and the production is bad. But the song is quite fun for some reason.

-Oh great. We have Liam Payne with Strip That Down. He returns solo for the first time. But he adds Quavo in the song? What????? I hate the phrase "strip that down," I bet this song is going to be a really hated song, and those who like this song is probably going to be their guilty pleasure of 2017. And Quavo isn't good in this song, just like he isn't good in Congratulations or even in I'm the One. Although Liam doesn't sound bad, the production is bad. The vocals are actually okay.

-Our hot short debut comes from Camilla Cabello with Crying In The Club. Why are we giving the worst fifth harmony member a solo career? The only reason I even liked Bad Things was because of Machine Gun Kelly, and Camilla Cabello actually sounded good in that song, or in other words, the vocals were amazing. The rapping in that song is actually really good, and the production in that song is good as well. But obviously this song is the exact opposite. The vocals in this song are a letdown, and the verses are way beyond bad. This song is so bad that I bet that even if Machine Gun Kelly was in this song he wouldn't be able to save this song from being bad. In fact, the performance on the song actually made the song worse. Even though this song is not in dark red at the moment, I would say that this song is the sixth worst song on the chart as of right now.

Crying In The Blurbs

-Rockabye was eventually destined to leave. At My Best had a really floppy tenure and I wish it did much better. I knew that it wouldn't be long before Si Una Vez left the chart. And Cake leaving is fine with me, because the song was never good at this point.

-Thankfully Break My Heart made a flopping second week drop.

-I can tell that it won't be long before Play That Song leaves. If so, please let it stay a while longer.

-Of course Congradulations had to jump. Isn't it pretty ironic how there are two Quavo songs on the chart next to each other?

-Human and iSpy probably won't be here much longer. Hopefully the latter is finally gone and will be gone next week or two.

-I kind of grew into Weak. I actually think that the song is catchy. Believe it or not, it only spent 3 weeks on the Hot 100 and 12 weeks here. It probably won't be long before the song leaves.

-Of course Bad Liar was going to become a hit. Hopefully this song will not become the next It Ain't Me.

-The best song on the chart and the worst song on the chart have to be next to each other. Fun fact: They actually tied on the chart, but because Malibu gained more than Scared to be Lonely did, that's why it's higher up. I think that the rule is pretty unfair.

-I highly doubt that Heavy will get above #16 at this point. If it can, it looks like we may have another contendor for a song taking a huge climb to the top 10.

-I believe that Despacito is almost in green, for those wondering. It has taken so long, considering the fact that I actually hated the song when it first debuted.

-You've read it right. Issues is back to red. There isn't anything to the song, just a combination of bad vocals and slow, sluggish production.

-I'm not very hot with the #1 song. Enough said.
