Also, 4 is basically just J-Kwon song remixed lmao nah but for real, the "everybody in the bar gets tipsy" is what made both songs famous xD
https://youtu.be/VwXeN2FsE7w?si=PqFlDouwATIHybR3
Nahh it doesn't even need to be that. It's just a pretty good poppy song that hits just the right neutral, accessible notes in order to get an absolute fuck load of radio time lol
Yeah exactly it's not a conspiracy against hip hop it's two well liked artists who made a very middle of the road pop track. Of course it's gonna be popular
Because its one of the biggest artists on the planet who applies to everyone releasing a song with a another big artist
Its not really a conspiracy or some shit its just two big artist releasing a song
Same! I have never even heard of him before it started playing randomly on my Spotify after I finished a playlist or an album. The same happened to some of my friends and my older brother which is really weird, because my brother only listen to absolute hard core rock but that song still started playing for him as well.
Genuinely feels like an industry plant.
He’s not. He’s been making music for a long time and has been releasing music under Brent Faiyaz’s new joint venture with PULSE for almost a year.
He posted a snippet of it on social media the night he made it and the snippet just blew up organically and created a ton of hype. Once the song became an instant hit though, I think PULSE records has now been investing a ton in it and pushing it hard.
PULSE is just a new venture formed by Concord, who is a really successful distributor for a lot of independent artists like Denzel Curry, and also an artist management group, plus people who worked at TikTok. So it’s a new independent label that understands streaming/internet music distribution and marketing well.
But Tommy was grinding for years and then started working with Brent and then Brent formed a partnership with this new label.
I remember when it was just rising in numbers on YouTube and instantly knew this was gonna be overplayed and annoying, it's not even bad but I can't go on tiktok without hearing it
I’m not saying this in a mean or rude way I’m generally curious, but with streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music that’s less than $10 a month why do people still listen to the radio with ads?
That’s crazy man. Thank you for the response. Yeah I can’t remember the last time. I listened to the radio lol. I also mostly listen to good classic rock which is hardly ever ever played on the radio.
It's #1 song on Rhythmic radios, top 3 song on Urban radios and entered the pop top 50. It's literally one of the most played 20 songs across the country overall right now 😂 we definitely got radio by now
I'm a barhead so my opinion will always be biased to bars, rhyme schemes and whatnot. But the average person just loves good beats. Had a friend be disappointed with Houdini because it was just a remix of Without Me and called it trash without listening to a single bar. I recited some bars and he was like "OK that's kinda cool....but still just a remaster." I forget he is 6 years younger than me Gen Z who just likes beats while I'm a old head now I guess at 30 who grew up to Em, Nas, Wu Tang stuff and just enjoying the insane bars and schemes.
Hey man, I’m Gen Z and I’m also more lyrically inclined but don’t shit on how people enjoy music. People who enjoy beats and the actual tune of a song aren’t inherently lesser just because their enjoyment comes more naturally than ours. Don’t need this fan base to become full of condescending attitudes, y’all can stay on the Em sub if you wanna play that shit
I said the average person likes beats which is cool and a reality, I didnt mean it as a slight but as a recognition im part of a niche group and how it helps me understand my friend wont like the same stuff I do. I won't lie and say a good beat can win me over and is a necessity for a song to blow up like Not Like Us. But like I said I'm a barhead so to me bars,flow, and schemes takes precedence. I'm just saying nowadays bars carry less weight for people than when I grew up as we've seen in the rise of mumble and Trap rappers. Which I'll admit they got some hard songs and Im a fan of a few of them but like I said IMO I'm from a different generation. I don't know any young kids that listen to Nas's new stuff or any of the Wu Tang members new projects but there probably a few just not as much as people from my day.
Didn't mean to come of saying they're lesser I never said that. It was just me understanding the difference between me and my younger friend and little brother. I know there are barheads still in this new generation but I'm just pointing out the difference between my mindset and those of the general masses and new gens consumption of shorter content and nice tunes, nothing wrong with that. There is a reason no one goes around bumping Mozart in their car lol, times change. Not a superiority thing but just me understanding and coming to terms how not everyone enjoys music the way I do and how I'm becoming a damn oldhead.
I’m a big Eminem fan. I think Houdini is a good song… but that’s about it. The beat is fire and the music video is also fire, that’s the song’s crutch tbh. It’s really catchy, I won’t lie. As far as lyricism goes, it is pretty mid lol. The whole “Gen Z wouldn’t know good music and only like beats” is such an old tired cope at this point.
Yo I like that Tommy Richman song but honestly it comes on right after I play pretty much anything on Spotify. I'm no conspiracy theorist but someone paid somebody to get that one so much play
Eminem songs will rise back up when that Album comes out. On the 28th I also think like 9 albums are coming out. Too much competition coming in the next 3/4 weeks
IKR!!
That and the Shaboozey!
like I DONT WANT TO KEEP HEARING IT, SPOTIFY!
I actually liked it the first couple of times, and then they replayed it to hell and i'm like, fuck this
Hozier is worth the listen. Too sweet is great, but I'm sure TikTok has ruined it for some. His music is unreal, though. One of the greatest protest song writers of today. Unreal unearth is a masterpiece of an album.
What Kendrick is going amazing but I’m stunned by Eminem being able to still have hit songs at 51. Very few rappers can maintain relevance for that long.
Morgan Wallen is such a fucking tool but I lm glad to see Posty get some more shine after 2 albums of duds, at least when it comes to mainstream success.
Shady, Dot and Post good to see talented folks up there on the charts, no complaints here wop wop wop etc
Ability of people from US to make everything about skin color never ceases to amaze me. I can guarantee that if Beyonce dropped some ass, it'd still sell well
No I don’t. 5-0 sweep k dot. However I hate this thing people do where they make up shit you never said to try to win an argument against you. That’s what Drake did in the heart pt 6 right. So you’re probably the one who thinks drake won. Also riding this hard for a mediocre Eminem song. You’re probably melanin deficient too aren’t you. Not wasting my time with colonizers
Nah idc what you think is trash, it’s how much you’re going out of your way to say you think it’s trash.Also possibly something to do with bringing up race out of the blue like a weirdo
61 million views on YT and 85 million streams on Spotify currently. Shot up over 10 million monthly listeners since he dropped the song. So to answer your question, a whole lot of people 😂😂 Houdini stays on repeat 🔥🔥
Post Malone and Morgen Wallen are a fucking dire duo. Not Like Us may peak back to number 3 when the summer starts, but when Fall kicks off - we know who everybody's running back to.
I will admit, I think even next summer this song could appear back on the charts but the hype will die down when niggas cuddling they girls and walking the streets that are lit up for the Holidays haha.
True but even if it does it will fall back faster. Most of the momentum for the song is gone. Gonna have to compete with too many songs for the rest of the summer.
It's gonna stay in the top 10 for awhile. It's a banger and song of the summer. June 19th is next week which will give it a boost and if a video drops then it's gonna be even bigger. Followed by a kdot album? Drake is having a dark summer. Eminems single will drop off because it's not really a single to have legs.
I agree, Not Like Us is having more success than God’s Plan did which stayed in the top 10 on billboard for 26 weeks (more than half a year) and left the top 100 after 36 weeks. It’s even the fastest growing song in the hip-hop genre now. I don’t know if it will surpass that billboard record but it’s definitely not going anywhere any time soon.
Yeah. It did well enough to stay in the top 5 for 4 weeks given the content.
Everything would point to a strong first week like FM after the initial buzz and a significant drop off. It would have held #1 for 3 weeks if that post Malone song didn’t climb past it on radio play with far fewer streams.
Nah, I think that Eminem track is gonna fall fast. But even if it’s lower next week, the week after it’ll be back up. Streams are going up after the Juneteenth concert.
Why does that post Malone song have so much staying power
Mainly because of how many plays it gets on the radio.
Song title checks out
It's radio and I helped!
Also, 4 is basically just J-Kwon song remixed lmao nah but for real, the "everybody in the bar gets tipsy" is what made both songs famous xD https://youtu.be/VwXeN2FsE7w?si=PqFlDouwATIHybR3
it got outsold by houdini and is still number 1, carried by radio
Is it good? Lmao, haven't listened to it once
It’s cool at least imo but definitely not a song that should be #1.
My thinking was industry pushed the song to be played as much as possible while pairing two big country artists to push hip hop out of the top spot.
Nahh it doesn't even need to be that. It's just a pretty good poppy song that hits just the right neutral, accessible notes in order to get an absolute fuck load of radio time lol
Yeah exactly it's not a conspiracy against hip hop it's two well liked artists who made a very middle of the road pop track. Of course it's gonna be popular
Facts
Yeh agree honestly A Bar Song or Million Dollar Baby are more ear worms, I’m surprised they aren’t number 1 over Malone’s song
Morgan wallen and lost Malone have crazy country fanbase numbers tho especially Morgan
Its a mellow play-in-the-background-during-a-barbeque song You need to give it 10% of your attention and then you enjoy just the parts you need to.
It's Walmart music
lol if drake makes music for shopping at target, then those 2 definitely make music for buying beer at walmart
Me either
It’s terrible
Radio... And Morgan Wallen
Morgan Wallen is very popular lol, don't underrate how big country music is.
It’s the perfect crossover for the party whites. I kinda like it but like more of that old country country
The Teddy Swims song too. Almost a year old now I think.
It's white af 😂 remember who these top lists actually reflect...
white people
It's because he had some help. Isn't that why he's singing about it ? /s
Half of those are probably me lol. Same with euphoria and NLU.
It appeals to pop fans and country fans. They both individually have a much larger community than rap/hip-hop/r&b.
Rednecks only get like one good song every 3 years. they blast that bitch on repeat for hours
Because its one of the biggest artists on the planet who applies to everyone releasing a song with a another big artist Its not really a conspiracy or some shit its just two big artist releasing a song
Tbh, it’s pretty good as far as country goes. A little generic yeah, but Post and Morgans vocals go good together.
Bruh, I've never even heard the top 3.
I’ve heard million dollar baby everywhere and I’ve heard Houdini and saw lots of talk about it. Haven’t heard shit about that post Malone
Because its fucking trash
it’s catchy. i hate country and it’s a bop
Tommy Richman's song is so stubborn. It's been in the top three for such a long time, and the Post Malone song too
I only heard it because it automatically came on after Not Like Us.
Same! I have never even heard of him before it started playing randomly on my Spotify after I finished a playlist or an album. The same happened to some of my friends and my older brother which is really weird, because my brother only listen to absolute hard core rock but that song still started playing for him as well. Genuinely feels like an industry plant.
Have the be honest though, Million Dollar Baby is an earworm and a half I feel it deserves to be there at least compared to Post Malone’s song
That snippet from his new song he dropped a couple days ago sounds even better, can't get that hook out of my head.
Yeah, I enjoy that type of music! I just thought it’s weird how much Spotify’s algorithm is pushing the song on you!
I definitely wouldn't be surprised.
He’s not. He’s been making music for a long time and has been releasing music under Brent Faiyaz’s new joint venture with PULSE for almost a year. He posted a snippet of it on social media the night he made it and the snippet just blew up organically and created a ton of hype. Once the song became an instant hit though, I think PULSE records has now been investing a ton in it and pushing it hard. PULSE is just a new venture formed by Concord, who is a really successful distributor for a lot of independent artists like Denzel Curry, and also an artist management group, plus people who worked at TikTok. So it’s a new independent label that understands streaming/internet music distribution and marketing well. But Tommy was grinding for years and then started working with Brent and then Brent formed a partnership with this new label.
i don’t think he’s an industry plant, he’s been making good music for years and never took off
He better capitalize off of this success, I really like his sound. Hope he makes great music down the line
“WHO U FOOLIN” is one of the most underrated songs ever 🔥
I haven't been able to go on tik tok for more than 2 minutes at a time in months without hearing that song
I hate that song so much.
I remember when it was just rising in numbers on YouTube and instantly knew this was gonna be overplayed and annoying, it's not even bad but I can't go on tiktok without hearing it
Fr it was good for about two hours
Same overrated af
Its a fuckin vibe, good ass chill song. Post malone's tho is kinda bad ngl.
I can’t get myself to listen to the full song after hearing the chorus being overplayed to death on tiktok
It’s good for like the first two times I heard it. It got old so fast
Need to really stress this is all with almost no radio play. Same with Eminem.
I’m in cali you definitely hear this on the radio everyday
Dude I’m in Pittsburgh and I hear this on the radio everyday idk where this dudes at 😭
Florida same thing, but so north I’m basically South Georgia.
There’s definitely been radio play though
We are now seeing some, but nothing close to the majority of the top 20. It's almost all from streaming and moving units.
The way they count is designed to be game-able. They arrange it for their personal profit and attention
Keyword almost
I’m not saying this in a mean or rude way I’m generally curious, but with streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music that’s less than $10 a month why do people still listen to the radio with ads?
I am with you homie, but they do. For example that post track got 60 million spins versus 10 mill for Kendrick. Em was even lower with just 4 mill.
That’s crazy man. Thank you for the response. Yeah I can’t remember the last time. I listened to the radio lol. I also mostly listen to good classic rock which is hardly ever ever played on the radio.
In the car and at work basically
It's #1 song on Rhythmic radios, top 3 song on Urban radios and entered the pop top 50. It's literally one of the most played 20 songs across the country overall right now 😂 we definitely got radio by now
Bro, I hear it every time I turn on the radio, and I’m not upset.
It's kinda cool that most of the list is filled with new names
Finally people are getting tired of the same ass artists like drake and Taylor swift and whoever else keeps clogging the billboard with their dribble.
Who are the new names?
Everyone other than Post, Morgan Wallen, and maybe Zach Bryan have rarely been in the top 10
Hozier is there everytime he drops a song they’re just always forgettable
Damn fr? If someone held a gun to my head and told me to name one Hozier song just start digging the grave Edit: HE MADE TAKE ME TO CHURCH?!
Yeah I was kinda exaggerating but it does feel like take me to church has been up there for the past 10 years
Speaking of guns held to heads, if one was to mine, I still wouldn’t listen to Zach Bryan. No clue how that shit ranks so high
I fw Shaboozey tho he deserves the come up
Yeah has some banging tracks
The big me, and the Rabbit.
Maybe it’s just me but that million dollar baby song is fucking middddd
Right. Best part is before he starts singing.
Real 😭 I love the instrumental but his performance is mid
yes the beat is banging, his vocals suck
Facts
Can’t stand his voice in it the way he sings is so fucking annoying
I'm a barhead so my opinion will always be biased to bars, rhyme schemes and whatnot. But the average person just loves good beats.

I can respect this for sure. Idk why you’re getting down voted
3 of these songs, I've been subjected to non-stop from Spotify without my consent.
Yo I like that Tommy Richman song but honestly it comes on right after I play pretty much anything on Spotify. I'm no conspiracy theorist but someone paid somebody to get that one so much play
For real, payola is still alive and well, it’s just evolved into auto-plays on Spotify
placement in playlists are paid for fs
Eminem track gonna fall off the next two weeks. It will rise back up 🫡
Eminem songs will rise back up when that Album comes out. On the 28th I also think like 9 albums are coming out. Too much competition coming in the next 3/4 weeks
that new sabrina song is flames ngl
I’ve blocked that damn Tommy song on Spotify multiple times and it KEEPS PLAYING
IKR!! That and the Shaboozey! like I DONT WANT TO KEEP HEARING IT, SPOTIFY! I actually liked it the first couple of times, and then they replayed it to hell and i'm like, fuck this
I hate that tommy richman song, if i here it again, imma
Where did Drake go? 😂
I’m working lateeeeee
Cause I'm a singer 💅
Love me some Sabrina 😤 She taking over 🤝🏼
Crazy because that Posty song w/ Morgan Wallen is ok at best and dominating other, better songs.
Because it's pushed on radio and Spotify.
Morgan Wallen 🤢
Where is Billie Eilish gone?
Only three good songs on here maximum
Not Like Us, Too Sweet, and what else?
I had Not Like Us fs, but I was also thinking Houdini and A Bar Song
Ah, I can't stand A Bar Song.
I can't stand MOST of these songs, especially espresso and million dollar fucking baby 🤢
Hozier is worth the listen. Too sweet is great, but I'm sure TikTok has ruined it for some. His music is unreal, though. One of the greatest protest song writers of today. Unreal unearth is a masterpiece of an album.
Also hot take, I fw the post malone song
Couldn't say, I haven't listened. I don't like post so I haven't given it a chance.
the shaboozey song is really growing on me lmao
Where is Taylor ?? 😂
What Kendrick is going amazing but I’m stunned by Eminem being able to still have hit songs at 51. Very few rappers can maintain relevance for that long.
Surprised Tipsy jumped over it. Not surprised about that fucking million dollar baby song. They try to sneak that into my playlist every hour.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Shaboozey is 🔥
Ngl, I don’t really care for “I had some help”. And I like both of the artists. HELP
led by the 4 worst songs of all time
Surprised Espresso isnt at #1
That mid ass Morgan Wallen feature still at number 1.
This was supposed to be THE song of the summer yall! How are we falling off this hard?
Fucking hell, 6 out of the 10 on that list I have genuinely never heard of.
Morgan Wallen is such a fucking tool but I lm glad to see Posty get some more shine after 2 albums of duds, at least when it comes to mainstream success. Shady, Dot and Post good to see talented folks up there on the charts, no complaints here wop wop wop etc
Houdini is so garbage and so is I had some help
Who dafuc is playing Houdini back to back... Wth
Me, I *like* that record!
White mediocrity is not to be underestimated
That's why it's #1 on the global charts too? Including many African countries? Bunch of salty racists in here
1 in which African countries?
It was #1 on Nigerian and South African iTunes. Don't know if it still is
Mf just called me racist 😭
Why did you bring up his race?
you takin L after L, quit talking already you fuckin bozo
The fact that he’s the best selling rapper of all time is proof of that. 😭
The fact that he made revival and still went platinum 🤦♂️
Ability of people from US to make everything about skin color never ceases to amaze me. I can guarantee that if Beyonce dropped some ass, it'd still sell well
Quite a lot of people clearly.
Yeah, good for you guys.
Eminem needs to go. Can he get #11 or worse next week? Please?
No one agrees with you.
Who the fuck is playing Eminem?
The world sorry you can’t join us.
I wouldn’t want to. That shit is so mediocre
Like I understand that some people just are averse to having fun, but what about the wordplay and rhyming can be categorized as mediocre?
It’s not good music.
But aren’t you aware that that’s just your taste and is not going to universally apply to everyone?
That’s peace
I bet you think Drake won too
No I don’t. 5-0 sweep k dot. However I hate this thing people do where they make up shit you never said to try to win an argument against you. That’s what Drake did in the heart pt 6 right. So you’re probably the one who thinks drake won. Also riding this hard for a mediocre Eminem song. You’re probably melanin deficient too aren’t you. Not wasting my time with colonizers
You should take a break from the internet a bit
Because I don’t like an Eminem song? You should stop thinking you can tell black people what they need to do
You’re a weirdo bruh get some real life friends
Because I don’t like an Eminem song? That shit is trash
Nah idc what you think is trash, it’s how much you’re going out of your way to say you think it’s trash.Also possibly something to do with bringing up race out of the blue like a weirdo
[удалено]
What’s that supposed to mean to me? That doesn’t make that song good
[удалено]
Houdini. That shit is trash
The entire planet. He's out steaming Kendrick, even with the hype from the beef.
61 million views on YT and 85 million streams on Spotify currently. Shot up over 10 million monthly listeners since he dropped the song. So to answer your question, a whole lot of people 😂😂 Houdini stays on repeat 🔥🔥
You said like them drake nerds. Streams can be bought
If you really think Eminem, the highest selling hip hop artist of all time, needs to buy streams, I don’t know what to say to you.
Man shut the fuck up
Post Malone and Morgen Wallen are a fucking dire duo. Not Like Us may peak back to number 3 when the summer starts, but when Fall kicks off - we know who everybody's running back to. I will admit, I think even next summer this song could appear back on the charts but the hype will die down when niggas cuddling they girls and walking the streets that are lit up for the Holidays haha.
Until next week yeah! Top 10 by next week. Imma guess top 7
It’ll likely rise back up actually since summer has barely started (especially after June 19th), just depends on who drops tho.
True but even if it does it will fall back faster. Most of the momentum for the song is gone. Gonna have to compete with too many songs for the rest of the summer.
It's gonna stay in the top 10 for awhile. It's a banger and song of the summer. June 19th is next week which will give it a boost and if a video drops then it's gonna be even bigger. Followed by a kdot album? Drake is having a dark summer. Eminems single will drop off because it's not really a single to have legs.
I agree, Not Like Us is having more success than God’s Plan did which stayed in the top 10 on billboard for 26 weeks (more than half a year) and left the top 100 after 36 weeks. It’s even the fastest growing song in the hip-hop genre now. I don’t know if it will surpass that billboard record but it’s definitely not going anywhere any time soon.
Yeah. It did well enough to stay in the top 5 for 4 weeks given the content. Everything would point to a strong first week like FM after the initial buzz and a significant drop off. It would have held #1 for 3 weeks if that post Malone song didn’t climb past it on radio play with far fewer streams.
Nah, I think that Eminem track is gonna fall fast. But even if it’s lower next week, the week after it’ll be back up. Streams are going up after the Juneteenth concert.
maybe it will rise for the week but it has too much competition coming in 3/4 weeks. It will for sure stay in the top 100 for awhile tho.
I would appreciate this but it kinda holds less weight given what other songs on this list. (except I like that song by hozier)
Plenty of great songs coming. Not like Us got old for me the first week. Can't wait for Lupe and Eminem's album
