Another low top 40 hit for Camila despite Ed being on the track it seems

I think the Camilla song is brilliant, just don't get why she wouldn't get a hit with this!

Dave did 733K!!

Dave did 733K!!

 

Well deserved, rap's not really my thing but Dave is clearly talented and lyrically exceptional - would have thought he was a lot older than 23. Obviously this is a bit more commercial than the album tracks of his last album as well, so should work well for him.

 

Whilst I'd obviously except him to decline over the week, I'd hope he can maintain some momentum.

Starlight #1 on Spotify of course

#3 Down Under

#8 Reggae & Calypso

#31 Come & Go

#32 Where Did You Go?

#39 Night Away [A1 x J1]

#41 G Lock [Digga D]

#52 Bam Bam [Camila / Ed]

That’s exceptional for Dave, well done to him, will decline over the week but that’s surely a strong enough start to grab #1 officially, especially with Bruno on acr!

New / Re-Entries top 50

 

1. Starlight - Dave

31. Come & Go - ArrDee

39. Night Away (Dance) ft Tion Wayne - A1 x J1, Tion Wayne

41. G Lock - Digga D, Moneybag Yo

48. Thiago Silva - Dave, AJ Tracey

49. Verdansk - Dave

also amazing to see Down Under climb to #3 and its virtually tied with Bruno, both with 261K

Down Under also #5 on Apple and #6 on Amazon

I personally don't think the new Camilla is the song to put her back in track

it's certainly no Havanna/Senorita, not even on the same level as Don't Go Yet

New ones:

 

1. Dave - Starlight

31. ArrDee - Come & Go

39. A1 x J1 (feat. Tion Wayne) - Night Away (Dance)

41. Digga D & Moneybagg Yo - G Lock

52. Camila Cabello (feat. Ed Sheeran) - Bam Bam

61. Machine Gun Kelly (feat. Lil Wayne) - ay!

88. Omah Lay & Justin Bieber - Attention

123. David Kushner - Mr. Forgettable

125. Dominic Fike & Zendaya - Elliot's Song

126. Knucks - Leon the Professional

132. Khalid - Last Call

184. Red Hot Chili Peppers - Poster Child

I was about to say I'm pleased for Dave to finally get a #1 but I forgot all about the mess that was 'Funky Friday'.

Spotify Chart Update (04/03)

 

Looking like Dave would be heading for #1 regardless of Bruno going to ACR or not then, good to see. Interesting to see this Russ Millions song now taking off big after looking like it wasn't going to do much, wonder if that could contend for #1 when the inevitable remix comes then...

I think the Camilla song is brilliant, just don't get why she wouldn't get a hit with this!

 

Hoping this will be a grower as it’s a great song

Great result for Dave, first decent numbers I can recall from this year so far. Prefer to see this go #1 than Peru or WAYN getting there by default due to ACR.

 

Hopefully Camila can make some gains over time. Clear her name isn't enough to get big peaks on day one anymore. Sounds very radio friendly (though I doubt anyone would consider it a stand out in her discography).

I was about to say I'm pleased for Dave to finally get a #1 but I forgot all about the mess that was 'Funky Friday'.

Funky Friday went to #1 which was weird as it’s one of his most forgettable releases.

Huge numbers. Not my jam at all but I’m glad to see these kind of numbers again. An easy number 1.

It was a surprise #1 at the time but it hasn't exactly been forgotten - it's currently #51 on Spotify from the tour/new single hype!

Wired Pheelz & Buju - Finesse done well on Apple Music no where found Spotify

Huge numbers. Not my jam at all but I’m glad to see these kind of numbers again. An easy number 1.

 

Yup, hopefully setting a trend for decent streams for upcoming releases as well.

Camila always climbs to her peak positions doesn’t she? Don’t think she’s the type to get high debuts although with Ed on the track maybe people expected more?

 

I can see it doing well overall though to me it sounded like a hit when I heard it (but then Don’t Go Yet did as well) but Ed being on this will surely help it to at least go top 20 eventually?
