NOW WHAT?
We have no fucking idea.
COUNTRY'S NEWEST DISRUPTOR
Three chords and some truth you may not be ready for.
AI IS ALREADY EATING YOUR LUNCH
The kids can tell the difference... for now.
WHO'S BUYING THE DRINKS?

Although momentum is on point— the track leaps up to #2 with several big spin increases — looks like it might take one more week for Kemosabe/RCA's R. City to hit the #1 spot on the Pop chart with "Locked Away." The Weeknd's "The Hills" (XO/Republic) goes Top 5 and should be this week's Greatest Gainer. Justin Bieber's "What Do You Mean?" (RBMG/Def Jam) and Taylor Swift's "Wildest Dreams" (Big Machine/Republic) both climb inside the Top 10, with Swift just edging out Bieber in spins. Shawn Mendes' "Stitches" (Island/Republic) is poised to move Top 10 and Columbia's Calvin Harris + Disciples are Top 20 with "How Deep Is Your Love." Becky G's "Break A Sweat" (Kemosabe/RCA) will chart this week and should be joined by Audien f/Lady A.'s "Something Better" (Astralwerks/Capitol).
