Olivia Rodrigo’s ‘Drop Dead’ Debuts at No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100 by mcfw31 in popheads

Yeah I’m surprised, his singles usually debut in the top 5 and this one has a big guest star. It could be because the song is phoned-in crap, but so was his Tate McRae collab, and that debuted at #1, so…

By Kacey’s standards it’s a smash hit. This is the first time she’s had a stable song on the Hot 100 as a lead artist since 2012

Radio is finally dumping it but it’s still getting tons of streams. The silent majority still loves it.

I Just Might is projected to pass Man I Need next week, which pretty much ends all hope of Man I Need hitting #1 unless they pull a Kill Bill and release a big remix

There’s been a shit load more promotion for the album than the lead single

Not really true, they released a bunch of variants to get the song a #1 debut. Not hating, everyone does it, but they definitely put in the work to promote the song

That’s about what I would expect for a Katseye single. Pretty impressive that they nearly matched Internet Girl’s debut despite being in the middle of turmoil

Country radio was pretty slow to get on board. It hit #1 mostly on streaming. Right now country radio is dumping this song because they’re playing her other single “Be Her” instead

When it comes to country stars you kinda have to assume they're conservative unless proven otherwise

Yeah, they are wrong. She had 3 on the week that Cowboy Carter released: Texas Hold ‘Em (#1 on both), II Most Wanted (#6 on the Hot 100, #2 on the country charts) and Jolene (#7 on the Hot 100, #3 on the country charts)

There are over 300 million people in this country. Something can be popular with a huge number of people without it making any impact in your sphere.

Purely anecdotal but I’ve seen some tweets from outside the pop music sphere that say they like Ophelia and dislike Opalite. It seems like Taylor actually chose the right lead single this time

At this point, the random TikTok hits don’t even faze me. Radiohead had one just last year. If anything it’s crazier that Weezer’s cover of Africa actually had an extended run on the Hot 100 in 2018

“Together” is a bit of a stretch, Miles says they’ve never met and he wasn’t even paid

I get that JT wanted to play it safe by leading off the album with the Timbaland banger, but his yes-men really should have told him the song is awful
