User blog:CAMERAwMUSTACHE/JD Billboard Positions (August 25, 2018)

Well, the Gamescom reveals brought some fresh songs to the table but unfortunately does not add much in the "currently charting" category. More on that will be below this week's chart news.

This week's biggest news is the rap queen's Queen album. Nicki Minaj finally dropped her latest album but it just missed the top spot, which is still held by Travis Scott's Astroworld, much to her disappointment. Minaj's album release unfortunately did not see the kind of impact previous albums have recently had on the Hot 100, seeing only three (four if bonus track "FeFe" is included) tracks in the top 50. Those four are "Chun-Li" (reentry, #44, previously peaked at #10), "Bed" ft. Ariana Grande (#42, up from #84, previously peaked at #43), "Barbie Dreams" (new, #18), and "FeFe" (6ix9ine ft. Nicki Minaj and Murda Beatz; #4, up from #5, previously peaked at #3).

As I predicted last week, one of Travis Scott's top 10 debuts fell out of the top 10, as "Stargazing" drops to #27 from its peak of #8. "Sicko Mode" also drops, but only from #4 to #7.

In terms of JD songs "One Kiss" remains the only song on the Hot 100 and is joined by "Toy" on the Dance/Electronic chart. "Dame Tu Cosita" hits 19 weeks on the Latin chart, meaning its run will be coming to a close within the next few weeks. "Despacito" relinquishes the top spot, again, to "Te Boté" (Remix) which goes back up to #1 from #2. ↑ ↓

Greatest of All Time
The G.O.A.T. chart will be removed in next week's blog and will not return until another song from it is added to JD. A link will be provided in future blogs. Two weeks ago, for their 60th anniversary, Billboard compiled the top 600 hits in the chart's 60-year run, the biggest chart ever compiled by Billboard. Here are the songs from the JD franchise that are on that list, sorted numerically because I'm too lazy to alphabetize them because you can do that yourself by hitting the little arrow next to where it says "Song."

 * Positions 101 to 125 correspond to positions 1 to 25 on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Chart, which acts as an extension of the Hot 100.
 * Prior to 2012, songs did not have to be predominantly in Spanish to chart on the Hot Latin Songs chart.
 * The Dance/Electronic chart was established in January 2013. Songs that predate the chart only charted if the song saw a significant enough increase to chart sometime after the chart was established.
