KING & PRINCE TAKE #1 WHILE JAPAN RULES THE TOP 10
Japan may not have won the war, but they certainly won here. King & Prince climb 4-1 with "Cinderella Girl", giving the Japanese idol group their first chart topper, and being the first boy band to ever go to #1. Not only that, Japanese artists take up half the Top 10, as "Teacher Teacher" by AKB48 climbs 21-5, and "Atarimae no Nichijo" by RHYMEBERRY rises 13-10. Add this to "Despacito x Shape of You", which is primarily in Spanish, and foreign languages take up a majority of the Top 10 this week.
Speaking of Japan though, Japanese vocaloid Hatsune Miku debuts at #20 with "Kiri, Yume, Maboroshi", which translates to "Fog, Dream, Vision", along with "Time Today" by Kero Kero Bonito debuting at #41. A British Group, though Sarah Medori Perry is ethnically Japanese, and the music is very J-pop influenced. Moving on from that though, we get 14 year old country singer Tegan Marie debuting at #26 with her single "I Know How To Make Boys Cry", "Crazy On You" by hard rocker Diamante debuts at #38, "lovely" by Billie Eilish & Khalid starts at #48, and British R&B singer Ella Mai, who's single "Boo'd Up" has been making waves around the world, finally debuts at #50. One final debut goes to the Mulan soundtrack with Donny Osmond's "I'll Make a Man Out of You", which nets a #45 debut.
Due to Natalie Prass's album bomb fading away, there are plenty of re-entries, notably "Babe" by Sugarland featuring Taylor Swift, which returns big at #15 off the back of its video.
The biggest losses go to Cal Chuchesta, who sees his momentum abruptly come to a stop as "Coin Star" drops hard 28-40, and Taylor Swift, who's "Delicate" drops gracefully 20-32.
Next week, expect a stable Top 5, with Bella Thorne making a play for the Top 10. Looks to be relatively quiet.

There were four re-entries. But I assume the one you haven't heard is the Billy Joel cover?
I'm not sure if "I'll Be There" can debut next week though. There actually could be quite a few debuts next week.

My favourite parts of your chart this week are all three re-entries, especially 'Babe'!
The debuts for 'Lovely' & 'Boo'd Up' are both awesome, as is 'I'll Be There' soaring up the bubbling under chart.
I hope you can check out my new chart when you get the chance!
I might not be on the BB200 article tonight (or if I am, it'll be fairly late) so I'll chat to you more on the Hot 100 article tomorrow.
