New Entrants:
- We get more of Post Malone once again with his latest single titled Goodbyes, which features Young Thug, who as you can recall was involved his biggest hit of his career when he collaborated with Camila in Havana. Like most of his music, my initial reaction isn't exactly the best. Some of his singles took time to get into (e.g. Sunflower) and some I find to be outright bad (e.g. Psycho). As far as his new song goes...I'm kinda split on this one. Basically, this is a story of wanting to say goodbye. But at the same time, he's wanting to keep someone around, which we can relate to. I like the chorus for the most part and Post sounds good with his voice. But I'm not huge on Young Thug's contribution here. I feel like he sounds high-pitched and not necessarily giving his best effort. This may grow on me and I might like this with time and more listens. I think this has a very good chance of becoming another hit for Post Malone. We'll see how far it ultimately goes.
I'm No Good At Blurbs
- Obviously, the big story this week is the departure of ME!. It was really only a matter of time until the song would leave seeing as it's virtually died out elsewhere. It was catchy even though I didn't exactly love the lyrics. Taylor Swift did release another single from Lover titled The Archer. I'm interested to see what her album has in store.
- So, not much really happened this week outside of You Need To Calm Down entering the Top 10, which I'm not too thrilled about. Hopefully, it doesn't end up sticking around for too long. But you never really know what happens for sure.
- Like Spyder Harrison did last week, Ryan Seacrest also mentioned that Panic! At The Disco wanted to collaborate with the band Green Day. That would indeed be a dream come true. It's been a while since I've heard from them. I hope to hear new music from them someday.
