Billboard BREAKDOWN - Hot 100 - November 19, 2016

[@thealjohnsonshow2188]

11:13-11:19 Yeah, it almost does when you think about it.

[@thesunderblock8817]

0:54 you wanted to say "By the Nine Divines"

[@mikecraig2062]

wow a lot of Meek Mill this week

[@BenEarlyGhostFish]

Mike Craig it'll all be gone, but hopefully litty sticks around a bit, I like that

[@listenersnotes3347]

Ben Early i don't see it lasting too long even if it is the best song on DC4... people don't seem to care to much about meek as of late

[@BenEarlyGhostFish]

Listenersnotes yeah, I doubt it'll stay, but i'd like it to because it's pretty good

[@Loraszno]

Black Beatles is predicted to be number 1 or 2 next week

[@hankcyrus9776]

DutchTrencher let's hope my fellow pulse members are right(and that it hits #1)

[@TheMiels]

im goning on a rampage when that happens. Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr should sue them and take all of their incomes for raping their bandname

[@hankcyrus9776]

NealSadhaka better than fucking closer continuing to rule billboard

[@TheMiels]

NOTHING is worse than Rae Sremmurd

[@JaesadaSrisuk]

Thijs van asselt Thijs van asselt Eh. "Closer" is just bland, colorless and features problematic lyrics. Rae Sremmurd is ANTI-music. Their catalog almost punk rock in the way that their music goes against the popular conventions of taste and quality.

[@beatwave9148]

What I love most about this series is that sometimes you put more effort into commenting on songs than artists have in writing them.

[@deanjackson8528]

love Better Man by Little Big Town

[@mikeramp72]

Black Beatles is confirmed for #1 next week

[@davidferguson9521]

Actually it's not.

[@crazyluigi6664]

You got wrong, David, unfortunately. Mainly because I wanted the likes of Starboy (or even 24K Magic, for that matter) to reach it first.

[@mspaint9745]

It actually reached #1 already...

[@davidferguson9521]

sdkfja dfafas Americans suck.

[@kanewill]

I see u meek

[@jesusrox4u]

How many weeks are left until the Year End List is posted?

[@naos8116]

The year-end closes off next week (the final song entering being "Tiimmy Turner" by Desiigner, and the #100 song being likely "Somewhere On A Beach" by Dierks Bentley). Not sure when it's posted though.

[@jesusrox4u]

Joseph Prasad (Thank you, I can't wait to see the year end list)

[@scottrohrbeck7672]

It's usually in like the second week of December when the Year-End gets put out. And while what's shown on the Pulse Music Boards isn't 100% accurate, it should give you a good idea of what the final chart is bound to look like.

[@jesusrox4u]

Scott Rohrbeck Thanks for letting me know.

[@naos8116]

Scott Rohrbeck I wasn't even looking at that. I tracked it my own way and just assumed that. I only usually have scattershot positions rather than more accurately. So I get a general idea rather than a full on idea.

[@headbandzzz5903]

Paul McCarthy supports the track "Black Beatles"

[@tylerdoesstuff6834]

I'd like some comfirmation that Paul McCartny actually supports Black Beatals.

[@jordanmoran4824]

So we are at the point where videos get removed for praising songs. Guess it shows that they only want fifth harmony to be big and not little mix. Which is kinda sad

[@markmuhammad8411]

"Thomas Rhett (honorable mention)" well, that's not a good sign for this week.

[@BenEarlyGhostFish]

Call me insane, I think the only hope for Closer to be dethroned is if Black Beatles takes it, it's leading on iTunes and it's gaining streaming fast

[@scottrohrbeck7672]

From what we're seeing, it's pretty likely. Remember how See You Again dethroned Uptown Funk right after it first entered the Top 10 at #10? If this (BB dethroning Closer) happens, it'll be that all over again.

[@BenEarlyGhostFish]

Yeah, it's gaining streaming quick, it's topping iTunes and it's just a matter of time before the radio picks up on it. And good for Rae Sremmurd, I actually like Black Beatles, and I hated Come Get Her, Throw Sum Mo and No Flex Zone with a passion.

[@hankcyrus9776]

11 new songs and the second best is from thomas Rhett? I'm scared for what will happen in my graduation year.

[@jdh21403]

I'm expecting Still Breathing by Green Day when that's out

[@zooka0619]

I actually like Froze a lot

[@wimpy0914]

reupload??

[@Silvxr9]

wimpy0914 late reupload?

[@wimpy0914]

silvaj714 yeah. the first one got deletd

[@0404chrisjz]

how come I havent seen you mention bad things

[@krisdaschwab912]

This Meek Mill shit sounds like every single rap cliche' ever.

[@jasongenovese8043]

Meekboard milldown

[@hankcyrus9776]

Drake taking aim at pusha t? the only way he has to survive is if no-one listens to the responds track!

[@hankcyrus9776]

The Fader Official I know, so I can't wait for drake to be anhilated. Let's hope it destroys his career.

[@mistaTHIRTEEN]

Nas already did the Carmina Burana sample better on Hate Me Now, and they didn't even let him use it.

[@jtdevold]

Since Trump and the Cubs won, Black Beatles is going #1 for sure

[@davidferguson9521]

Let's all hope that doesn't happen.

[@Blondieflay]

I would rather have Black Beatles at #1 for 12 weeks than Closer.

[@crazyluigi6664]

You got right, Jeremy.

[@jtdevold]

Crazy Luigi boom

[@erikdaniels0n]

A Thomas Rhett song is your honorable mention this week?? Now I NEED to watch this episode

[@crazyluigi6664]

My sentiments exactly!

[@daltonriser1125]

offended sounds like discount migos

[@JudaiEldritch]

For the love of god, Desiigner, stop making those demonic noises!

[@naos8116]

Desiigner doesn't have to sound the way he does. Several songs on his mixtape show that.

[@kyshaungilliard8965]

Meek said he made DC4 for the streets not the media or his haters

[@cyanmanta]

Can we just reload 2016 from our January savepoint and try again? It seems like every decision we have made this year as a species has been the wrong decision. Hillary got the nomination, Trump got the presidency, the UK left the EU for no good reason, Drake had a bestselling album that consists entirely of him mumbling into an autotune...

[@cubedmelons876]

A reset still wouldn't save us from Drake.

[@volcanosauce00]

cyanmanta At least the Cubs won the World Series

[@oklahomasoonersfootball]

​@@volcanosauce00the Yankees should have

[@liamcarmody4217]

First, Trump is president. Second, Juju On That Beat, Black Beatles (even though it's Rae Sremmurd's best song), and Fake Love are all in the top 10. And Finally, The Meek Mill show and he gets a best of the week. WHAT HAVE WE COME TO PEOPLE?!?!?!?!?!?!

[@liamcarmody4217]

The Fader Official that's why I said it's Rae Sremmurd's best song

[@jshanksffemtp]

I still don't know why we allowed Donald in the White House. Ted Cruz would have eaten Hillary and her support in one bite.

[@CandleCorn98]

While Thomas Rhett's new song may not be bad, the fact that it climbed out of the Bubbling Under chart this week and not "Parachute" by Chris Stapleton annoys me.

[@countrymc7926]

Ranking best to worst imo: Better Man by Little Big Town (Best of the week) Litty by Meek Mill ft Tory Lanez (Honorable Mention) Star of the show by Thomas Rhett Offended by Meek Mill ft Young Thug and 21 Savage Blue Notes by Meek Mill Chantaje by Shakira Two birds, One stone by Drake Blessed Up by Meek Mill The Difference by Meek Mill ft Quavo On The Regular by Meek Mill (Dishonorable Mention) Froze by Meek Mill ft Lil Uzi Vert and Nicki Minaj (Worst of the week)

[@1402shelly]

I find it funny that Mark sounds really annoyed at Thomas Rhett when he says his name, despite the fact that the Thomas Rhett song is his honourable mention!

[@ChuckBrowning]

Ben Nash Shows you how little he thought of the charts this week.

[@crazyluigi6664]

And he did think the song he did was, at the very least, tolerable by comparison to the rest of his album.

[@oscarfilson515]

I think you meant November 9th, not 19th.

[@davidleary7393]

The date in the title is always the chart date. The charts run a week ahead.

[@oscarfilson515]

But 10 days? That doesn't make sense. You could be right tho, idk anything, I was just trying to help

[@ricardodiaz8612]

I knew you will give froze worst of the week but you might not understand it because you don't have a car

[@jesusrox4u]

Comic Book Guy from The Simpsons: Worst excuse ever.

[@jesusrox4u]

***** Yep

[@Ericis323]

i thought the game kaped this dude meek miles

[@SuperFlashDriver]

Great, We're now entering into what I like to call "Billboard Depression." UGH.

Spectrum Pulse on the Diamonds = Ice Metaphor: Let It Go, Let It Go

[@crazyluigi6664]

Fuck the police and the 90210.....

[@TheFrayedRedMisery]

Drake, Rae Shremmurd, and Chainsmokers in the Top 10? FML Also, Mark...please do everyone a favor and PLEASE even if it is still #1 next week DO NOT PLAY CLOSER ANYMORE! I CANNOT TAKE IT ANYMORE, AND IT IS DRIVING ME INSANE! IDC what #2 is next week, if Closer is still #1 next week, then just play the #2 song instead. I apologize on my vitriol on this, but it is actively pissing me off just to even hear one note of it

[@lol88133]

Black Beatles is gonna be #1 next week.

[@hankcyrus9776]

thank you meek mill, I needed to hear one of the greatest scores of all time(O Fortuna) badly auto tuned

[@awesomecharts5938]

Rae sremmurd #1 next week and the rest of the year

[@teddyhaines6613]

Perfect way to close out this dumpster fire of a chart year.

[@scottrohrbeck7672]

There's also the December 10 and 17 charts, because those are at this point basically the only chances for 24K Magic and Starboy respectively to hit #1, because the albums will be dropping those weeks.

[@Blondieflay]

That's actually an improvement, Rae Sremmurd is still better than Closer

[@crazyluigi6664]

Which album will be first, Scott.

[@meganfletcher5510]

Does his pronunciation of 'chantaje' bug anyone else?

[@Rob-ew9id]

Wow that Better Man 'review' is embarrassing. Glad you've improved from here.

[@benallan2328]

Best of the Week - Blue Notes by Meek Mill Honourable Mention - Two Birds One Stone by Drake Offended by Meek Mill ft. Young Thug & 21 Savage Star Of The Show by Thomas Rhett Chantaje by Shakira ft. Maluma Litty by Meek Mill ft. Tory Lanez The Difference by Meek Mill ft. Quavo & Desiigner Blessed Up by Meek Mill On The Regular by Meek Mill Dishonourable Mention - Froze by Meek Mill ft. Nicki Minaj & Lil Uzi Vert Worst of the Week - Better Man by Little Big Town

[@erikdaniels0n]

Ah the Meek Mill show, the even more boring, somehow more insufferable spinoff of the Drake show

[@tylerdoesstuff6834]

At least it would be better than the Future show.

[@Spongebob4Spongebob]

i liked the Beyonce show more

[@glennpicardo2339]

SBSP Jygzy Agreed. Can we go back to that?

[@akiranatsume3501]

I actually like the Meek Mill show a lot. But it's just my opinion.

[@glennpicardo770]

Well, this week we'll be getting the Weeknd show. This should be fun.

[@naos8116]

I expected a song called "Blue Notes" to actually have blue notes.

[@theservoalex2]

you should really stop reviewing hip hop

[@davidferguson9521]

No he doesn't.

[@0sarah0911]

damn i didnt realize the pusha t drake beef went back this far. i mean it took about 2 years for pusha t to tear him apart but he did it eventually

[@namelessanonymous7860]

Been watching his channel for two years and still can't figure out his eye colour

[@davidferguson9521]

Is America this obsessed with garbage these days? Just curious.

[@devinmccreery8003]

I like 4 of these artists on the billboard 100. Little big town, Billy Currington, Keith Urban, and Kenny Chesney.

[@intune252]

We need to get We Are Number One by Robbie Rotten on the charts

[@TheDukeofCheese12]

So if your last episode of BB was taken down for your usage of "Shout Out to My Ex", why'd you use it when talking about losers and dropouts (unless if it was only the video that was the problem)?

[@crazyluigi6664]

It was exactly what you said in the parenthesis that was the problem!

[@spoopish]

Have you ever heard of Guy Sebastian?

[@duksitonus24]

You mispronounced chantaje

[@ThanhLS88]

Can't wait for Mark to rip apart this week's Breakdown!! Unless 24K Magic or Starboy goes #1, we're NOT looking at a even decent 2017 on the Hot 100. X-( It's bad enough 2017 is about to be HELL ON EARTH!

[@jshjns-ye8gc]

11:18

[@cooper712]

Clinton just lost.... I feel so hopeless, and I scared.

[@nielsdegroot4242]

Trump wins AND Rae Shremmurd hits the top 10. Yep, America is officially dead to me. But seriously Mark, how can you keep doing this series without getting a depression?

[@davidferguson9521]

Both Trump and Hillary are scumbags and Rae Sremmurd are just the worst. I feel insulted by the fact that these clowns compared themselves to pop legends like The Beatles.

[@scottrohrbeck7672]

- New song by Thomas Rhett - Doesn't tear into it I am very disappointed.

[@duckydae]

Just curious, would you ever consider reviewing a K-POP album because I'd really like to see your views on the CBX album by ChenBaekXiu or the Exodus album by EXO as most consider Exodus as a masterpiece (...but could you review the Chinese version of Exodus) - CBX is a smaller group within EXO.

[@nicholassinnenberg6540]

Little Big Town can't be compared to Fleetwood Mac's underrated Mirage album. Listen to Hold Me, Gypsy, or Eyes of the World for proof

[@glennpicardo2339]

Thank God next week is the last week of this God forsaken chart year. Let's hope that 2017 will be a better year for music.

[@teddyhaines6613]

By the way, Mark, are you considering a Special Comment on the election results? Seems like something you might feel compelled to weigh in on outside of Twitter.

[@HarryRickard]

I don't understand Meek Mill. What the fuck? How can anybody enjoy this shit?

[@pipimisbiggestfan9508]

How much Drake do we need?

[@hankcyrus9776]

Timon Reissing none

[@listenersnotes3347]

Timon Reissing better question is how long until the general public finally sees how boring and tasteless the guy is

[@theservoalex2]

as much as possible because he's a good artist

[@lladoandy]

ROFL AT SHANTAJAY hahaha

[@OscarRodriguezChannel]

"Chantajay" lol

[@insertfirstnameinsertlastn1755]

"Hey there folks, welcome to Spectrum Pulse. We talk about music, movies, art and culture and this is Meek Mill Breakdown!"

[@jshanksffemtp]

Meek Mill might be terrible, but at least Hillary Jailbird Clinton's failure is here to counterbalance my day.

[@crazyluigi6664]

Too bad we still have to deal with Donald Trump's shit anyways.

[@wild_sergeant716]

Here's some news, that a lot of people will be happy about, or upset about. Black Beatles is confirmed by Billboard magazine to be the next #1 for this week.

[@0404chrisjz]

lets be honest there might be 3 rappers who could win against drake and one of em aiant pusha t. his brother got caught not him btw, he a fake, a product of his environment at the best but that was 15 years ago he doesn't beed to still talk about coke every other bar.

[@martinrusev3502]

Meek Mill? This guys still has a carrer? If I had to pick the best of the week........probably The Difference ft. Quavo & Desiigner for at least having something interesting in it. For the worst.......god damn it, it was a rough week. But I'll probably give the worst of the week to Froze ft. Lil Uzi Vert & Nicki Minaj for just being straight up emberassing. As for the top 10, I'm just speechless. Juju on that Beat, Black Beatles, Closer and Fake Love all in the top 10 in the same week. I can't remember the last time I saw a top 10 this bad. At least 24K & Starboy are here otherwise this would the very worst week for the chart for this year.

[@sydneysoldemail400]

martin rusev what do you think is the worst top ten is then

[@vinceisonline]

martin rusev meek is dope

[@Love.Protagonist]
