This Week's Mover and Shaker:

Dua Lipa - Training Season (+7) took the biggest jump for gaining lots of airplay throughout this week. What a week for her! I'm so pleased to see it do that. Now, let's see if it'll go to the Top 20 soon.

I'm not really that thrilled to see Thirty Seconds To Mars - Seasons (-10) take the biggest drop. It sure has been losing lots of airplay recently so I'm sure this is going to be the end of it.

New Song/s on the AT40 this week are:

Usher - Kissing Strangers: So he has put out a new album last month and this is one of the songs that was off of it. And since Good Good is officially on it's way out of here, we now have this song making it's debut this week. As far as the song goes, it's definitely an amazing song. But definitely not as good as Good Good, but it's still amazing. With my opinion, the production was so amazing, Usher's vocals were super amazing, the lyrics were super interesting, and the chorus was so phenomenal. Let's see how this one does on there.

Jessie Murph/Jelly Roll - Wild Ones: The best debut this week. And in case you remember, this song was in my Top 10 Songs of last year, ranking at #6. This was definitely the best song that I've ever heard from her. It's definitely a huge step up from Heartbroken and all of her other songs and this is even better than Flo Rida and Sia's hit song from 2012 of the same title. It's absolutely a pretty heavenly song. With my opinion on this song, the production was pretty heavenly, Jessie's vocals were pretty heavenly, Jelly Roll's vocals were also pretty heavenly in his contribution, I'm definitely a humongous fan of the lyrics and they're actually pretty heavenly, and the chorus was pretty heavenly. Everything on this song was pretty heavenly. Hopefully this should do well on there.

SZA - Saturn: It looks like she's working on the deluxe edition of her album SOS, and we now have one of the songs from it on there this week. As far as the song goes, it's definitely another phenomenal song and it's actually a step up from Snooze. With my opinion on this song, the production was so phenomenal, SZA's vocals were super phenomenal, the lyrics were definitely what I'm a huge fan of, and the chorus was super heavenly. Hopefully this should become a hit on there.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Tate McRae - Greedy: I actually didn't expect that this song would stay in the Top 5, but I'm still pleased that it's still in there. But I'm sure this is going to be out of here next week.

4. Sabrina Carpenter - Feather: I'm still waiting for this song to get to the Top 3, but again I'm not sure if it'll actually happen. But again let's see what happens next.

3. Doja Cat - Agora Hills: I'm pleased that it's still in the Top 3, but again I'm sure this is going to be out of here very soon. However I'd like it to stay in the Top 5 for at least a couple more weeks or so.

2. Jack Harlow - Lovin On Me: Yeah I'm sure this song is going to start moving down and get out of the Top 3 very soon. But I'm still pleased that it's still in there.

1. Taylor Swift - Is It Over Now: Holding the top spot for the 2nd week in a row. I'm so pleased that it's still in there. Nothing can really stop her from becoming super popular on there. Now, let's see if it'll stay in there next week or not.
