THE BALL STREET JOURNAL

It’s getting more and more difficult to remember what week and day it is lately. Everything seems to be running together more than ever. It reminds me of when I was in high school and over the summer, I would have zero clue as to what the date was and where I even needed to be. The good news, however, is that there are officially 100 days left until Election Day!

In music news, RCA’s Lori G and Inca run Chris Brown X Young Thug’s “Go Crazy” to the top of the charts. It took 10 weeks and the track was up another 365 spins. Doja Cat’s “Like That” f/Gucci Mane (Kemosabe) is up 320 spins and moves up one spot to #8. Mulatto “B***h From Da Souf” climbs to #36 and is still developing. Make sure you spend some time with Wizkid’s “Smile” f/H.E.R., as they’re impacting this one in a few weeks!

Rick Sackheim and Dontay Thompson at Epic had an amazing first week with DJ Khaled’s “POPSTAR” f/Drake. This one was up 1,290 spins and debuts at #20! Khaled and Drake also have their second debut with “GREECE,” coming in at #38 on the chart. This one was up 265 spins and officially impacts on 8/4. Young T & Bugsey’s “Don’t Rush” f/Headie One holds its position at #6, up 120 spins. Black Eyed Peas’ “Mamacita” also continues to develop, as it was up 90 spins and is now at #17. Tyla Yaweh’s “Tommy Lee” f/Post Malone slides up 2 spots to #24.

Over at Interscope, Nino Cuccinello has Trevor Daniel X Selena Gomez’s “Past Life” gaining 175 spins and landing at #47. Meanwhile, Juice WRLD’s “Wishing Well” sees a 265 spin increase and has its sights set on a debut this coming week.

Columbia’s John Strazza and James White grab another 300 spins on StaySolidRocky’s “Party Girl” and maintain their #13 chart position. Chloe X Halle’s “Do It” is up 110 spins and moves four spots up to #27. They also debut the The Kid LAROI & Juice WRLD’s “Go” at #40. There’s also plenty of room for growth on this track.

Noah Sheer and Def Jam have Jhene Aiko’s “OTW” holding at #10, up 135 spins. He’s also proud to announce a double debut this week as YG’s “Swag” comes in on the chart at #33, up 345 spins, and Bino Rideaux’s “Brand New” lands at #35!

Lee L’Heureux and Geffen continue to build Rod Wave’s “Girl of My Dreams.” The track was up 235 spins and moves up a spot to #22.

Over at Republic, Davey Dee and Garrett Ream have Pop Smoke’s “The Woo” f/50 Cent and Roddy Ricch off to the races. It was up over 550 spins and rockets #34-23. They also have the Most Added track this week at Rhythm with Lil Wayne’s “Shimmy” f/Doja Cat.

Capitol’s Dixie Tipton has not one, but two records knocking on the door of Top 10. Lil Baby’s “Emotionally Scarred” is at #11, up 230 spins, while Migos‘ “Need It” is at #12, up 210 spins. Ne-Yo & Jeremih’s “U 2 Luv” is now inside the Top 25.

Warner’s B Dot Scales has Saweetie’s “Tap In” (Artistry/Icy) up 340 spins and sitting at #14. NLE Choppa’s “Walk Em Down” f/Roddy Ricch holds its position at #19 and is up 30 spins.
