HOT 100 26.08.25 #46
THE TOP TEN:
10. How It's Done – Huntr/X/Ejae/Audrey Nuna/Rei Ami (Up 4/NEW PEAK/8 weeks in chart)
9. Just In Case - Morgan Wallen (Down 1/22 weeks in chart)
8. Daisies – Justin Bieber (Down 2/6 weeks in chart)
7. Lose Control - Teddy Swims (No change/105 weeks in chart)
6. Love Me Not – Ravyn Lenae (Down 1/21 weeks in chart)
5. Soda Pop – Saja Boys (Up 5/NEW PEAK/8 weeks in chart)
4. Your Idol – Saja Boys (No change/9 weeks in chart)
3. What I Want – Morgan Wallen/Tate McRae (No change/14 weeks in chart)
2. Ordinary - Alex Warren (Down 1/28 weeks in chart)
1. Golden – Huntr/X/Ejae/Audrey Nuna/Rei Ami (Up 1/2 weeks, No. 1/9 weeks in chart)
NEW ENTRIES:
98. What Kinda Man - Parker McCollum (7.6/10)
A very fresh mix with the country guitar chord sequence stopping with new strings and harmonicas coming in when you wouldn't always expect them. It's not the most different country song, but I'll tell you that I definitely see the attempt and feel the character. Good song.
91. Let Down - Radiohead (8.3/10)
Released in 1997 from their extremely well-received album "OK, Computer", seeing this in the chart is quite interesting, and for the better. It's a bit different from most things of its time, with alternative rock that doesn't go on full blast and instead has a dreamy sound that builds more quality.
86. Heart Of Stone – Jelly Roll (7.6/10)
Wow, for once we're getting multiple country & rock songs in the chart that don't have passion completely sucked out of them. And the song totally needed that passion, especially since it's about someone turning away from their past due to its bad nature caused by them, and as Jelly Roll has covered similar topics a few times, I think touching on it as a whole, especially with some real strong backing, was a good choice. Rare Jelly Roll win; let's hope we get more like this!
77. Last One To Know - Gavin Adcock (7.2/10)
The actual good mix of country this week continues with Gavin giving a fine kick too to a twangy sound with occasional flickers of production that add a texture that I haven't seen in the Hot 100's typical country progressions. Finally, entries that actually are making a difference in the scene.
70. Imaginary Playerz – Cardi B (7.5/10)
Cardi is weirdly having quite a good improvement recently; this and "Outside" actually aren't average. This song has an atmosphere that feels like despite Cardi taking it slower, she still delivers a fiery & classy punch. I do think the talking scenes should be taken out from the song, but aside from that, it's really nice.
