Braintree Top 40

Kygo & Tina Turner find a third week at #1, fending off both Joel Corry & MNEK's "Head & Heart" and Cardi B & Megan Thee Stallion's #3 debut, "WAP".  We also see Glass Animals with their first top 5 as "Tangerine" debuts at #4, thanks to Emily and Alexandra.  Bon Iver earns his 2nd top five with "AUATC", thanks to Emily and Brian.  "Holiday" by Little Mix sees a jump in spins this week as Tanya begins to latch on to the British girl group.  Could they earn their 2nd top five soon?  Fellow English group Bastille earns their 4th top ten with "WHAT YOU GONNA DO???," thanks in large part to Shaza.  Coming off his #1 hit, "ROCKSTAR," DaBaby strikes again as his next single, "BLIND," soars up the charts 35 spots to #7 in just its 2nd week.  Could DaBaby get a 2nd #1 already?

"Watermelon Sugar" is just the song that will not die as it continues its rollercoaster trip up and down the Braintree Top 40.  While it went #1 in the US this week, it lands at #11 in Braintree.  Brian and Tanya teamed up to give JoJo a debut at #12 with "What U Need".  After 11 weeks, "Rain on Me" finally spends its 1st week outside the top ten.  After being dropped by Jenn, it's looking like it'll be a steep drop for the former 6-week #1.

We have a surprise country song come in at #40 with "I Hope" by Gabby Barrett.  While it sounds like Miley Cyrus singing Carrie Underwood's (only) hit, "Before He Cheats," it's likely this diddy can make a run for itself as it has the interest of both Josh and Celina.  Another surprise is female rapper Saweetie, who sneaks in at #50 with "Tap In".  While Cardi B & Megan Thee Stallion sucked up most of the talk this week for their "WAP," Saweetie still has a raunchy-yet-infectiously catchy tune that is sure to make waves in Braintree in the coming weeks.

Next week, we have some BIG releases as we get new singles from Drake and Miley Cyrus as well as smaller releases from Sufjan Stevens, Burna Boy & Stormzy, and a remix of the top ten "Levitating" by Dua Lipa which features Madonna & Missy Elliott.  If either Drake or Miley Cyrus are good, they could certainly contend for #1, but they'll face stiff competition from "Head & Heart" and "WAP," both of whom missed out on the top this week.  Of course, we still have Kygo & Tina Turner ruling the roost, but it looks to have waning support as it barely held on to end the week as both Jenn and Tanya tossed it from their playlists.  Find out who'll be #1 next week on the Braintree Top 40!
