Prayers up, he could score his 50th week at #1 upper week Monday.

i remember the hot 100 thread calculating whether nonstop would beat nice for what and it just missed it by a hair

coulda had 4 #1's off 1 album

i stoped paying attention to the charts in 2019 so idk if Old Town Road surpassed Hello, but i remember Hello being the only song to reach 1000+ points in a week on the predictions people do

gods plan had like 800 at its peak

Harlem Shake was actually 1st because Billboard used to inflate streaming power and it did 100 million+ streams in 2013

Hello was 2nd tho

just some info on this
streaming wise first day it debuted #1 on AM and Spotify. Apple dont release numbers but it had an 800k streaming advantage on Spotify which is solid. Airplay also had a strong debut at #12 but it needs to gain as much as it can because thats a big advantage area for blinding lights. iTunes its beating blinding lights but not by a massive margin. Youtube its comfortably leading competitors. TikTok is off to a pretty strong start trending towards 25-30k videos in the first 48 hours. this will pack up massively if big creators get on the trend and im assuming talks are in progress w them in terms of compensation.

basically its locked in for a top 4 debut. it will either debut at #4 or #1 I would guess as the current 1,2,3 are very close point wise so if its trending towards that area id expect it to get pushed to go #1 by the label

At least he has a couple of #1 hits. Nicki doesn't have any. The few times she's come close, she's been blocked.

Have no doubt about it

I pray

10M in 2 days on yt

10 days and about 7 hours, yeah, lol. I have it at 25 million views by the end of the tracking week on Thursday. He usually gets most of his views from the US so I won't be surprised if about 12-15 of those 25 million views are US-based. I have him with at least 14 million streams from Spotify and to be safe 26 million streams from Apple Music. That's about 50-60 million streams including every other streaming platform like YouTube music, Amazon, Pandora, etc. If he can manage to debut with 40-50 million in radio impressions, that's an automatic shot at #1. Even if he only pulls 40-50 million streams by the end of the tracking week.

Let’s hope so

I hope this stays #1 on the charts for at least 10 weeks

It'll have to be stable on radio and streaming to be able to do that. I don't see it having that kind of longevity, but I could be wrong. He should drop another single 5-6 weeks after this one depending on how it performs. If it's still going strong after 6 weeks, he can wait, but otherwise, he should put out another single.
