New Entrants
-Our lowest debut this week comes from Logic and Alessia Cara and Khalid with 1-800-273-8255. I can't exactly say that I like this song, because I obviously have mixed opinions on the song. I like the production and the vocals of the song. The lyrical content isn't that good though, talking about suicidal controversy of the U.S. suicide prevention hotline? I can completely understand that the song is about suicide never being the answer to anything, but I feel as if this song has gone way to far for that. For those wondering, the song's name is the suicide prevention hotline. Hey, at least the chopped up vocals from Alessia Cara were done really well here! *ha ha*. Back to the lyrical content. There statements about suicide not being right pretty much strikes me off of this song a little bit. Other than the lyrical content, I actually like this song. And don't expect this song to be in red anytime soon. In fact, it's on the yellow-green borderline. I can actually see this song being in green on this chart sometime soon. Because of this, I'd call this the best debut of the week without any competition.
-Our next debut comes from Fifth Harmony and Gucci Mane with Down. I actually don't like this song at all very much. First of all, it copies off of the new song made by Marian Hill (not technically new, but her newest song). And that song is even better. I don't want to say that this song is bad just because of that, because there are other things wrong with this song. For example, the lyrics. I hate the repetition of "as long as you are gonna keep holding me down down down" and that's all they say throughout the song. It's kind of pointless, to be honest. The vocals are way beyond mediocre and are not even close to good. Adding Gucci Mane to the song does not help at all. In fact, it only makes the song even worse. The only thing about this song that saves its color is the music, which I actually find to be somewhat enjoyable. I'd call this the second best debut of the week and the second worst debut of the week as well.
-And next week we have the worst debut of the week which unfortunately had to be the hot shot debut and the greatest gainer all in one. I do not understand as to how anyone is supposed to like this song. The vocals are really dumb, and it seems as if this is a ripoff from Back 2 U. The lyrics have nothing whatsoever to do with the song I don't think, and how is anyone supposed to like the music? If this is really ranking audience impression, I don't believe it. This song did not deserve to be the hot shot debut or the greatest gainer. How about this song leaves soon, because I don't want to waste my time discussing this song in any further detail.

-The exit selection for this week was not good. Although we did get rid of Human, we had to get rid of two of the so-called best songs of the year. The first one is Kissing Strangers by DNCE and Nicki Minaj, which should've gotten more success in America. And we got rid of our fourth one-week wonder in 2017, which is Be the One by Dua Lipa. Hopefully that song can re-enter and pull off a No Promises, because I really want that song back!
-With iSpy dropping down to #40, hopefully that means that the song will be gone for good next week.
-Heavy making a huge drop was completely unexpected. But the song is flopping, so I guess that would happen here eventually. I don't mind though, because the song was really old anyways.
-Great, our pink song had to jump a spot this week. We already have enough rap fusing the charts! If any rap infuses this chart, I want the rap song to be good! Such as All Night.
-Scared to be Lonely making a huge drop was completely uncalled for as well. But after such a huge drop as this, I highly doubt it won't be long before the song leaves. Too bad the song wasn't a true hit here. But this song will be remembered as the best song of the first half of the year.
-Weak has been here for three months now, and is still at #28, despite only peaking at #27. Interesting.
-Humble and Body Like A Back Road are the two good non-pop songs on this chart. If any non-pop songs should take over the chart, it should be these two. I know that I'm the One and Despacito are non-pop songs as well and are good for the moment, but these two songs are even better.
-So I guess Passionfruit will be a flop after all. Oh well.
-#13-#17 should all drop as soon as possible. We already have enough bad songs on this chart.
-Shape of You making a huge drop on its 23rd week was completely unexpected and unnecessary for most people. But I'm not complaining.
-And that concludes my relatively boring week.
