DEBUTS:

Artist of the year Tate McRae arrives with TIT FOR TAT. While its not her peak, the trap production works swimmingly and the lyrics are above average for her standards. If I was in her shoes, however, I would've sent Anything but love as the first single, that shit is the best track she's written yet.

5 Seconds Of Summer decide to put gorilla masks on for their new cut off their upcoming album, EVERYONE'S A STAR, NOT OK. It's a great alternative cut, and while I don't agree with HITS 1's shortened edit, the song still shines. 

Why the fuck are we promoting another Taylor copy? Alessi Rose is shamefully back with a seemingly copy of Sabrina Carpenter, entitled First Original Thought. While this is also her first original song, it doesn't hit the marks of Sabrina's best or, hell, even Taylor's best. Let's move on from this stale copypasta.

HITBOUND:

The Chainsmokers - Smooth (3)

Taylor Swift - The Fate of Ophelia (NEW)

Madison Beer - yes baby (3)

Louis Tomlinson - LEMONADE (NEW)

The Favors - David's Brother (3)

Justin Bieber - LOVE SONG (5)

EMEI - Talk Talk Talk (NEW)

Laufey - Lover Girl (3)

People R Ugly - WAKE UP (3)

Doja Cat - Gorgeous (2)

Demi Lovato - Here All Night (4)

twenty one pilots - City Walls (4)

Tyler, the Creator - Sugar On My Tongue (NEW)

Lewis Capaldi - Something In The Heavens (3)

RAYE - WHERE IS MY HUSBAND! (3)

Alexander Stewart and Lauren Spencer Smith - Friends Don't (3)

DEBUTS:

Taylor's newest album is dogass, but this songs fine. Her best choice for a lead single in a minute, the track is a calming anthem similar to the likes of Midnights, and while it wouldn't be a star on the record, for this album its a godsend.

The Ringo Starr of One Direction, Louis Tomlinson, debuts with Lemonade. It's probably his best, not that there's much competition, but its nice all the while being forgettable.

More slop for the masses please, I'm out.

Tyler, the Creator finally makes it on HITS 1 with Sugar On My Tongue. DON'T TAP THE GLASS is pretty underrated in Tyler terms, and I'd even call it top 3 in his discography, with this being a highlight. The heavy bass really kicks this shit off in the car, making it perfect for airplay. Now, we wait for HITS 1 to lock in.

PREDICTIONS:

Tyler, The Creator - Sugar On My Tongue (NEW)

Laufey - Lover Girl (NEW)

RAYE - WHERE IS MY HUSBAND! (NEW)

Taylor Swift - The Fate of Ophelia (NEW)

REASONINGS:

Sugar On My Tongue impacted US Pop Radio on September 29th.

Lover Girl and WHERE IS MY HUSBAND! both impact Pop Radio on October 7th.

Don't fuck with me.

That's all for now, take care.
