AT40: Sabrina Carpenter (3) Week Of August 3, 2024

So the month of August is now upon us and now I only have one month left until I begin my final year in college. I'm so looking forward to see how I do in my final year. Hopefully it'll be one more amazing year! Anyway. As far as the countdown goes, I thought that it still looks phenomenal, but we did get rid of a song that was in my top songs of last year, but we do have some more amazing debuts this week. But I'm gonna get to them later on in this post like always. But other than that, I don't have anything else to say here, so let's get to it!

This Week's Mover and Shaker:

Chappell Roan - Good Luck, Babe!, Madison Beer - Make You Mine and Kendrick Lamar - Not Like Us (+3) all took a short biggest jump this week which I'm actually good with. Although I wish they would've moved up even more than that, but it's still a good thing to see.

Djo - End Of Beginning (-6) has been losing some airplay recently. But at least it's still in the Top 20 which is good, but I'm sure it's going to be out of here very soon.

New Song/s on the AT40 this week are:

Camila Cabello/Drake - Hot Uptown: The best debut this week. So she has dropped CXOXO last month, and now we have one of the songs from it debuting on there this week. As far as the song goes, it's definitely a heavenly song and it's definitely a step up from He Knows. With my opinion on this song, the production was super phenomenal, both Camila and Drake sound so heavenly, the lyrics were super duper nicely-written, and the chorus was super heavenly. Let's see how far this goes on there.

Mark Ambor - Belong Together: I've noticed that this song has actually went viral on TikTok before it was released which was actually super interesting. And now, here he is making his first ever appearance on there this week. As far as the song goes, it's definitely an amazing song. With my opinion on this one, the production was so remarkable, Mark's vocals were super amazing, the lyrics were definitely what I'm a huge fan of, and the chorus was so phenomenal. Let's see how this one does on there.

My Opinions/My Thoughts On The Top 5:

5. Shaboozey - A Bar Song (Tipsy): This has now become his first ever Top 5 song on there this week. I'm pleased to see this song in there, and I'm sure hoping that it should go to the Top 3 very soon.

4. Hozier - Too Sweet: I actually didn't expect this song to be out of the Top 3 this week, but at least it's still in the Top 5 so that's still good. But I'd still like it to stay in the Top 5 for at least a few more weeks or so.

3. Tommy Richman - MILLION DOLLAR BABY: I'm glad to see this song in the Top 3. Though I'm not sure if it'll go to the top spot, but can this be his first ever #1 song on there? We're gonna have to find out.

2. Post Malone/Morgan Wallen - I Had Some Help: Well, it's almost at the top spot. I'm fine with this song moving up to that spot. But I'll still give credit to this song if it hits the top spot soon. Let's see if it'll happen.

1. Sabrina Carpenter - Espresso: Holding the top spot for the 3rd week in a row. Gosh, this song has been doing super well on there recently. But I'm sure another song might take over the spot soon, but let's see if it'll stay in there next week or not.
