Billboard BREAKDOWN - Hot 100 - January 7, 2017

[@jackyvstheworld]

I got way too excited over "Starboy" hit #1. I was shouting out of joy.

[@talkingloud1783]

Starboy going to #1 is literally the only good thing that came out of the Hot 100 this week.

[@jackyvstheworld]

***** True

[@jordanhughes7291]

Red Ops is so old... People are just now catching up to 21 Savage's music so that ended up making the list somebody.

[@Devine3190]

Red Opps by 21 savage is actually from 2015 and his break-out single. Hardly new.

[@user-jk2zb8uc5y]

X'O Host yea I'm a fan of 21 but i get why mark doesn't I mean his music isn't very new or thought provoking

[@tobos8909]

X'O Host You care enough about him to actually look that up?

[@jordanwardan7588]

Tony O'Neill he probably already knew because he's not sleep

[@mariokarter13]

Starboy hit #1 because the 2016 chart year finally ended. It was simply too good for that awful year.

[@FaceClef]

Are you slow? Its still december, black beatles will go back to #1 next week

[@mariokarter13]

Read the title of the video. The charts are always dated a week and a half later than the current date. Last week's chart was dated December 31st.

[@CartridgeMaster]

is it weird that George Micheal died on Christmas it was his Last Christmas

[@CartridgeMaster]

SoFly SkyGuy wow dude I just might kill myself that was harsh dude where do you get your insults LeafyisHere

[@crazyluigi6664]

Yes. Yes it was. Gives a whole new meaning to the song now... He gave his heart to God at the end of the song.

[@ba4111]

How did juju on dat beat pass side to side? There is no metric in which its higher in. The song has declining airplay, and sales and streaming.

[@TheTap323]

Starboy! I'm so happy for DaftPunk and The Weeknd.

[@CobaltYoshi27]

If Starboy made #1, 2017 is automatically better than 2016. Then again, it wasn't hard to be better than 2016.

[@KingHiki]

2017 is already off good start with Starboy making it to number 1.

[@Ericis323]

Quavon Blume it won't last

[@SuperFlashDriver]

Spectrum Pulse, I am a huge fan of Christmas music. In fact I've been collecting Christmas music since 2012 after listening to 106.7 lite FM play christmas music every year around Christmastime. And because of over 5 years of collecting Christmas music, I have now over 720 christmas songs in my collection (hoping in the near future to get into 1,000 christmas songs in the collection). Anyway, some christmas songs have an extended version of the original song. Last Christmas is one of those that have the extended version of it. And even though George Michael passed away on Christmas (didn't know it until someone told me about it on Discord), I still think the extended version of Last Christmas to me is a lot better then the original 4 minute version of the song. There are people out there that love christmas music (especially myself) and they would have a tradition that no matter what month it is, they always love to listen to christmas music. So, Happy new year man. =3

[@daltonriser1125]

its weird that last christmas just now charted i mean you explained it but it is still odd with their metrics that billboard uses

[@mikecraig2062]

I wouldn't be surprised if the song rises even more especially with George Michael's passing

[@daltonriser1125]

Mike Craig oh absolutely i'm expecting it to rise much higher

[@erikdaniels0n]

Starboy going to number 1 was the best Christmas present ever

[@mikecraig2062]

you may have to start doing more meme reviews Mark with so many songs being pushed as memes

[@crazyluigi6664]

How about song meme reviews?

[@TheDukeofCheese12]

Also, I'm surprised Chris Brown's career lasted as long as it did, despite MULTIPLE instances where it really should have. Seriously, his career lasted five years longer than it should have.

[@MBfishboy13]

KDog1265 Talking as if it's over...he may be trash, but he's talented trash...

[@chisayukizome5435]

KDog1265 True Im shocked that he has a carrer after everything he did but then again Justin Bever's carrer also lasted longer then it should but at least he is getting better in general unlike Chris Brown

[@MrAtomic707]

it because he has talent, that's it.

[@chisayukizome5435]

MrAtomic707 Lets not forget he went to jail, got into bottle fights, dressed up as taliban members the list gose plus Chris Brown isnt good as a singer at least now at days he was ok in his early years but mostly meh now at days he is sounding bad and whoever is working on his lyrics seriously need to go and attend classes on writing

[@nadiyahg1]

I love him, I guess that's just me.

[@ripopgodazippa9109]

9. José Feliciano - Feliz Navidad (Worst of the Week) 8. Andy Williams - It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year (Dishonorable Mention) 7. 21 Savage - Red Opps 6. DJ Luke Nasty - OTW 5. Burl Ives - A Holly Jolly Christmas 4. Rae Sremmurd - Swang 3. WHAM! - Last Christmas 2. Gucci Mane featuring Drake - Both (Honorable Mention) 1.

[@andrewbianchi1294]

† ѕтαявøу † Party and Swang in the upper tier? Are you trolling lol

[@nadiyahg1]

† ѕтαявøу † I love Party!😝

[@nadiyahg1]

Wonkey Dude98 Party is awesome to me😊

[@ripopgodazippa9109]

Nadiyah Green Yass, I love "Party", too!

[@cubedmelons876]

Rae Sremmurd are the new LMFAO. Starts off terrible, lucks into 1 huge hit that is less terrible than their usual stuff, and follows it up with something FUCKING AWFUL. I really hope Swang doesn't become their 2nd #1 hit.

[@johnmv1140]

Zachary Jones people isn't that stupid... i wan't to think that

[@Spongebob4Spongebob]

Zachary Jones cmon! We can put our trust on the people of USA right?...

[@mikecraig2062]

Zachary Jones except they may end up having more hits unfortunately

[@cubedmelons876]

Yes, it was Party Rock Anthem.

[@mariokarter13]

Sexy And I Know It wasn't the followup to Party Rock Anthem, the actual followup flopped (Champagne Showers also had an annoying high pitched voice come to think of it).

[@lovelessmbv1991]

I recommend Travis Scott's remix of "Swang."

[@calebw3353]

That 21 Savage song is from last year. Wonder why its back on the Hot 100...

[@lol88133]

"Rudolph and the Red-Nosed Reindeer" You want to proofread a little bit more there, Mark?

[@zo851]

Red Opps is an older 21 Savage song, so by that logic, his flow is getting better

[@Hamzethegoat]

Starboy is number 1!!!!!!! fucking yes about time now The Weeknd can start pushing and promoting "I Feel It Coming" my favorite song this year, also songs like Rocking, Secrets, and Lonely Night

[@Sigmundfruit]

my god I've never gotten the chance to make a "last time I was this early" comment, I've gotta think on my big moment. But wait, if I think too much I won't be that early anymore! What do I do?

[@tylerdoesstuff6834]

Get punched in the face.

[@tobos8909]

Sigmund Fruit If you were early you'd be here before the video was uploaded.

[@swanlee6077]

Not sure if you know this but red opps was released before savage mode and was his breakout singke

[@klu5301]

Did you not review Kane Browns debut album, or is my search results not working????

[@gavintrautman4498]

Only now do I realize the lyrics in the opening theme:"You'd been suffering from long time memory loss! I don't remember..."

[@crazyluigi6664]

No, my friend. It's "Do you suffer from long-term memory loss? I don't remember..."

[@5196Tpffan]

Is "Both" supposed to be a Christmas song? :/ Why is it on a Christmas mixtape?

[@vanguardofthevoid740]

Rip George Michael And Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds while we're at it

[@oklahomasoonersfootball]

Now toby Keith

[@aftershock16509]

Is it me or did "Swang" take the beat from "U.O.E.N.O."?

[@hihowareyougood]

Looks like Starboy was able to make it to Number 1 in a weeknd.

[@Sarah-oi3of]

hi how are you. good? STOP.

[@benallan2328]

Best of the Week - A Holly Jolly Christmas by Burl Ives Honourable Mention - Last Christmas by Wham! It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year by Andy Williams Red Opps by 21 Savage Party by Chris Brown ft. Usher & Gucci Mane Swang by Rae Sremmurd Both by Gucci Mane ft. Drake Dishonourable Mention - OTW by DJ Luke Nasty Worst of the Week - Feliz Navidad by Jose Feliciano

[@OscarRodriguezChannel]

As a Latino, Feliz Navidad is an 8/10 and part of my childhood, and the other Christmas songs are pretty bland

[@Unknown-dr4bk]

Oscar Rodriguez as a Latino, I fucking hate that song

[@KylieWilson]

Yasss Starboy! I see you've fallen into the trap we all have of writing 2016 when it should be 2017, oops xD. Jan 7th 2017 will also be my little sister's 27th birthday, haha. I don't think I'm familiar with A Jolly Holly Christmas but that might just be another North American vs European thing, I'm pretty used to it on this show by now.

[@3N3MYKN1GHT]

Someone get the soundclip of mark saying "Sure Mang", the fact that he scripted in "Charming" and it sounds nothing like that is just hilarious.

[@BenEarlyGhostFish]

1.Last Christmas 2.Both 3.OTW 4.Feliz Navidad 5.It's The Most Wonderful Time 6.A Holly Jolly Christmas 7.Party 8.Swang 9.Red Opps

[@thejustinoshow7908]

Swang isn't all that bad IMO, it's a pretty fun song to dance too. It's better than several songs off the second half of SremmLife2. It's a shame Look Alive or Set the Roof had no Chart success. Hopefully Start a Party takes off soon. And pray to whatever deity you believe in that Do Yoga or By Chance don't take off.

[@andrewbianchi1294]

Chad Copenhagen a.k.a Shaquille O'Neal Liking anything from SremmLife 2 that isn't Black Beatles or Just Like Us is the musical equivalent of trying as hard as you possibly can to contract AIDS.

[@kozykhi]

Chad Copenhagen I don't see how you can think Set the Roof or fucking Start a Party are better than By Chance in any way possible.

[@thejustinoshow7908]

Fambruhghini Mercy By Chance is really really boring. Look Alive is catchy and has a great atmosphere around it, similar to Black Beatles. Start a Party is just unapologetically aggressive. It's one of the loudest, most aggressive party anthems a mainstream act has ever put out.

[@wiigocadee4641]

I guess they have to process if this episode will be regularly awesome or amazingly awesome =)

[@gars129]

Feliciano is a good guitarist, but in Puerto Rico people seem to know him mostly for his romantic pop ballads that focus more on his voice and romantic lyrics, which most of his spanish songs are. And Feliz Navidad of course.

[@fennefox257]

Spent 1/3 of the video listening and opening up a Tool album...can we get Tool on some chart please :3

[@faceofkongos516]

I'm still stun how Mark actually pronounced right Jose Feliciano's name when he first reviewed the song and then mistakenly pronouncing it for years later

[@ThunderTails95]

Symere is probably ducking and dodging somewhere right now trying to make another hit like "U was Right'.

[@mattwhitaker7174]

Your jacket is fantastic

[@HarryRickard]

In the UK, Last Christmas is a massive Christmas song along with 'Do They Know It's Christmas' by Band-Aid, 'Merry Christmas Everyone' by Slade and 'Fairytale of New York' by The Pogues. Never ever heard of 'A Holly Jolly Christmas' or 'Feliz Navidad'.

[@crazyluigi6664]

Well I never really heard of Merry Christmas Everyone or Fairytale of New York myself, so I guess that evens things out here.

[@HarryRickard]

Crazy Luigi What nationality are you? I wasn't throwing any shade man, just highlighting a difference in what the UK and USA identify as classic Christmas songs.

[@crazyluigi6664]

Harry Rickard I live in the U.S.A. (More specifically, somewhere in the state of Arizona.)

[@HarryRickard]

Crazy Luigi That's fair then. Seemingly in the UK, we just have different Christmas songs to the US. Always amazed me how my American friends had never heard of The Pogues, Slade and Wizzard as that's all you hear over here at Christmas!

[@atokadleachimenilcyourmoth960]

I’ll try to rewatch all the 2017 lists.

[@marcdoesmusics]

when you get here and there's no views but 3 likes and a comment..lol?

Pink Season better make the Billboard chart this week

[@tawheedlatifi6340]

he never mentions in the gains that Caroline by Aminé hit #11!

[@oklahomasoonersfootball]

He probably forgot it

[@Kaslay]

Jeez, my prediction for 2017? 21 Savage is gonna get HUGE. Like, pierce the top 10. Then again, maybe the 2016 year just ruined my expectation for quality on the charts.

[@anthrax1328]

He's definitely going to get big, I don't know about breaking the top 10, but, he'll get big,

[@oklahomasoonersfootball]

​@@anthrax1328o boy great predictions though

[@H893-r1k]

For this certain week for Christmas songs, at least we didn't get I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus which to this day stands as the worst Christmas song I've ever heard. As for Last Christmas, it's the most unfortunate title I've seen in awhile. After his death, all I can say is, I'm never gonna dance again. RIP

[@FatadayKorngor]

Official prediction: by February, Let's Hurt Tonight by OneRepublic will cross over. It gets released to radio next Monday and sales are starting to rise.

[@erikdaniels0n]

First off, why did Gucci Mane put out a Christmas themed mixtape??? Because the first person I think of when I think of Christmas is good ol Gucci Mane. Also, that 21 Savage song sucks balls, but what did I expect, it's a 21 Savage song

[@jadenthemusicfreak]

2:38 "Machine Jun Kelly"

[@MrBreast69420]

not you being on every hot 100 video 💀

[@jadenthemusicfreak]

@@MrBreast69420 I see you everywhere too hahaha

[@awesomecharts5938]

lol you just never know what's going to show up on the Hot 100 anymore.. except Drake, he'll always be here.

[@Spongebob4Spongebob]

The beginning...

[@raytheflyingsquirrel12]

BOTW: Swang HM: Both DM: Red Opps WOTW: Party

[@victoriagrace5134]

The Hot 100 was freaking weird this week. Hip- Hop and Christmas songs. WTF Hot 100?

[@teddyhaines6613]

Well, there's always Christmas music charting at this time of year, and the hip-hop is there because the only things that chart anymore are hip-hop and EDM because those are the only two genres that get any streaming which seems to be 90 percent of the Hot 100's chart points now. So it makes sense in context.

[@SaifKhan-kv1hc]

Roy woods nocturnal !!!

[@chisayukizome5435]

Who is handling Rae Shrimmer's songs , Swang is so awful its funny Im glad you teared into it its garbage but its so amusing

[@mikecraig2062]

Chisa Yukizome there wasn't really anything good besides Black Beatles there

[@chisayukizome5435]

I know that though whoever is handling there career is doing a bad job, almost everything of there's sounds like shit espcailly this song

[@mikecraig2062]

Chisa Yukizome blame the artist not the manager, it's not their fault they are so bad

[@chisayukizome5435]

That is true that it is the artist fault though still it feels like mismanagement at times with there careers

[@andrewbianchi1294]

Chisa Yukizome To be fair, Swang being released as a single means that there isn't any more excuses to release Just Like Us, the best and poppiest song of Rae Sremmurd's career.

[@Gemmydude598]

I hope Dirty Laundry by Carrie Underwood makes it to the top 40

[@willamettejohnson329]

rock-a-bye is gonna hit #1

[@Abbaschand]

Wille Johnson Amen to that.

[@ok-xl2oc]

Wille Johnson no its cringey

[@willamettejohnson329]

Waldo how is it cringey? and I didn't say it was good, but I feel like the mainstream will be all over it

[@daltonriser1125]

it s surprsing how popular metro boomin is

[@FaceClef]

Not really, he was on a drake album and a kanye album back to back

[@daltonriser1125]

FaceClef he produced views which sucked and the life of pablo which is still polarizing but not for the production which was pretty good

[@FaceClef]

Dalton Riser No I was referring to what a time to be alive

[@daltonriser1125]

FaceClef oh shit really

[@cooper712]

I really hope all this really basic and terrible hip hop stops being so popular

[@FaceClef]

Basic music is always what gets popular, its always been that way, it will always be that way

[@andrewbianchi1294]

FaceClef But can we at least have basic music that's remotely pleasant?

[@miticaBEP07]

The other day I went to the train station to deliver some stuff to a charity. What were they playing? Don't Wanna Know. Then we went to the lake and next to the lake there was a big bar. What were they playing? Don't Wanna Know. Why. Why. Why. Why. Why. Why. Why. "We know how to party". No you don't. This shit is sleep-inducing. Lemme throw Scream And Shouts on you until you learn now to make a party song right.

[@crazyluigi6664]

Yeah, at this point, I'd definitely rather that song over Don't Wanna Know since that song is a complete disappointment all around, regardless of what your thoughts on both artists are!
