Weird how terrible streams are this year 300k is awful and yet this time last year it was near a million a lot of the time with all the huge hits coming through!

Why is Give Me Everything peaking so high on streaming all of a sudden?

Pitbull's UK tour has started

Benson new at #146 on Apple!

Benson Boone - "Sorry I'm Here For Someone Else" now #146 on Apple Music.

Also LISA, Raye & Doja - "Born Again" climbing a bit, up to #85.

Can't see Benson on Amazon yet but he will likely appear soon as they support him well.

Anyone remember how Pretty Slowly did when it was released? It just missed the top 40 as I recall

Debuted at #53, peaked at #43 on its third week.

Slow It Down debuted at #42, Beautiful Things debuted at #18 but had significant TikTok teasing for months.

Of his top 100 hits, only In the Stars peaked in week 1.

Benson now #106 on Apple

Hope he does well in terms of the desperate need for freshness but this is a slow start after the NMF support/R1 instant adds.

Well, being insta-added to R1 playlist has zero effect on streaming sadly

not sure whats the Apple support either

oh I see now Benson is in at #28 on Amazon, crazy high start

but Amazon love him and fully support him

Beautiful Things is still top 10 and has been for the whole last year

Benson's always had a slower start on Apple too from what I remember.

Benson's new song is actually kinda excellent, lowkey hope it becomes a hit

Very poor, poor start to the year. This time last year seems like a happy memory, although 2024 also tailed off massively in the second half. It's a bit of a worry that the industry has seemed quite stagnant for the best part of 7/8 months now, so surely there is a big flood of hits to come in the next couple of months, as many of the big international artists release in Q1 and Q2 now, but Q1 has seemed a bit subdued in that respect aside from the odd few.

Benson new at 61 on Spotify...

Not Like Us and PPC with 5K difference...

Messy again on 450K.

Today's new entries:

#61 Benson Boone - Sorry I'm Here For Someone Else

#185 Bhad Bhabie - Ms. Whitman (the girl from that "catch me outside, how 'bout that?" meme years ago lol)

#189 Pitbull - Hotel Room Service

#194 Pitbull, Chris Brown - International Love

New music struggle as always on Spotify so annoying

Anxiety up to 27. Should give Doechii her 3rd top 40 hit!

Should be easy top 20 maybe even top 10 if it keeps rising. Another old song though.

Benson #88 on Apple now. A decent Spotify debut, hopefully within a few days it'll be making some upward progress too!

Bhad Bhabie lmfaooo

Apparently she has viral feud with Travis Barker’s daughter because she slept with her husband while she was in treatment for cancer or something and it’s a diss track to her, my colleague told me about it yesterday and it’s supposedly all over tiktok
