Hey guys! I apologize that this post is so late, but I was away for the weekend and when I came back I didn't feel up to writing this. But, it's here now. I only have one announcement, and that's that event 1 of the Weekend Countdown Olympics has been up for about a week now. It would be best if everybody that wanted to participate did so by Friday, because I'm pretty sure that's when it'll be done. Thanks! Here's our lone exit for this week.

Countdown Extra: I DID IT - DJ Khaled/Post Malone/DaBaby/Megan Thee Stallion/Lil Baby
Our only debut this week sees the Countdown debut of Tesher. He collaborated with Jason Derulo on this new song, Jalebi Baby (still not sure what that means). This song's decent. I really enjoy the production here, and I think both Tesher and Jason Derulo do a good job with the vocals here. My only issue with it is that it's not very memorable at all. I doubt it'll end up sticking around for too long.
Biggest Drop: Your Power - Billie Eilish (-13): I'm really happy that this song has decided to flop here. It's now down to #29, and I really hope that this is our last week having to deal with it.
Biggest Jump: Leave Before You Love Me - Marshmello/Jonas Brothers (+12): Ok, whatever. This song really isn't memorable, so I really don't care how it does here.

Our first Hit-Bound debut of the week is a song that I've been really enjoying for the past little bit. It's Friday by Riton, Nightcrawlers, Mufasa & Hypeman and Dopamine. This song is honestly just super fun. Whoever's singing here sounds really good and like they're having a lot of fun. The production is awesome and super upbeat, and the chorus is ridiculously catchy. I really love this song and I hope it can debut here.
Next up is a new Doja Cat song, Need To Know. This song is very different from the past singles she's had here, as it's much more of a slower R&B song than Say So, Like That or Kiss Me More. Yeah, I don't love this one. I've never been a huge fan of Doja Cat, and while I think she sounds pretty good here, the song is just really boring. Nothing about it really grabs my attention, and it makes it really hard for me to care about the song in the slightest. I doubt this'll be a big hit at all, but I could be proven wrong. Who knows?
Tones And I brings her fifth song to Hit-Bound this week, Cloudy Day. I find this to be a much more interesting version of Fly Away. It doesn't start that way, as it starts pretty slow, but by the chorus, it picks up enough for it to become interesting. Tones And I sounds pretty good here, especially in the verses. Honestly, that's probably what saves the verses, because otherwise, they're just a little bland. Overall, this is an enjoyable listen, even if it's not a fantastic song.
This week, jxdn scores his third song on Hits 1, as THINK ABOUT ME debuts Hit-Bound this week. This easily his best song so far. It's leagues better than Angels & Demons and even his other song on Hit-Bound right now, la di die with Nessa Barrett. I think jxdn sounds the best that he's ever sounded in this song. The chorus is pretty catchy and I really like the instrumentation in it. It's also 3:24, which is much better than his previous 2-minute long songs.
Two previous Hit-Bound dropouts return to Hit-Bound this week, RAPSTAR and Track Star. I'm glad that RAPSTAR is back, and Track Star actually returns with a new Chris Brown remix. Overall, I think it's a bit better than the original, because it adds a good Mooski verse at the start, and a really good Chris Brown verse after the first chorus. Funnily enough, Hits 1's actually edited out A Boogie Wit da Hoodie and Yung Bleu on this remix. Overall, it's fine because Yung Bleu's verse isn't that great and Boogie's verse is quite good, so it balances out.
We actually lost five Hit-Bound songs this week, Little Bit of Love, F***BOY, First Time, Frankenstein and SUN GOES DOWN. Little Bit of Love was great, but as soon as By Your Side came out, it was destined to drop out, so it's fine. F***BOY was awful, so I'm glad it never really got a chance. First Time had a decent run, as it did actually debut on the Countdown. Frankenstein was ridiculously forgettable, so I don't really care and SUN GOES DOWN deserved more.

Ja-Blurbi Baby
Our one and only exit this week was Till Forever Falls Apart. This song was never that good, and I had started to lose interest in it anyways, so I'm kind of happy that it's gone.
Peaches is in the bottom 5! Hopefully, it leaves next week.
Mr. Perfectly Fine took a huge tumble this week to #25, which I'm okay with, because it had a good run here.
Ok then, I guess A-O-K is actually becoming a hit. I don't really like the song, so I'm not too thrilled about that.
90s Kids had a huge jump this week, which bodes well for when it isn't the One to Watch anymore.
Astronaut In The Ocean's run in the top 10 was very short-lived, as it got replaced by WITHOUT YOU this week. I'd be fine if the latter song started dropping. It's been here for just a little too long.
