New Entrants

Since I think all the songs on here are good I'll just talk about
Their place and why I picked them

R. City released a fantastic album the other day
And I put my two favorite on this list ( for now )

Hardwell was on the YouTube 15 with Jenna Marbles
( for those who know ) with the song Follow Me with Jason
Derulo that song is good but I put Birds Fly because I listened
To it more this week and it's a beautiful song Mr. Probz Has a
Great voice

Our new number 1 is a Debut from a person I discovered
Earlier this week
Dillon Francis
The song when we were young is the best song from
"Money Sucks, Friends Rule"
It's Amazing


Blurbs


- A lot of big drops, expect that as a get tired of
Most of the songs I listen to a lot

- also some big jumps expect that a lot too

- Maroon 5 - Not Falling Apart is at number
2 it's one of my favorites on It Won't Be Soon
Before Long but they're all good so expect some
More songs from that album to be on here soon

- Although only two of R. City's Songs made it the rest
Are still good

- Also don't expect a number 1 song to hold for more than a week
I almost guarantee that won't happen often

- As a whole Tiesto's A Town Called Paradise is Average
And inconsistent, but A Town Called Paradise and Red Lights
Are some great songs.

- Alesso's Cool has one of the most catchiest drops in an EDM song
It will take me a while to get sick of that one

- Maroon 5 have a lot of songs on here and I don't want
To feel like I'm filling it up with them so if I don't listen to one of their
Songs I'll drop it

That's it for the blurbs New top 40 list out next weekend
Bye :)

New Entrants

Maroon 5 - Feelings is a good song
It's not maroon 5's best but it's really good

Walk The Moon's Different Colors is a song
I've been waiting for to be on this countdown
And here it is it's great!

Hozier - Someone New is not better than Take Me To
Church, but it's still good not much to say about it though
Solid track

Panic! At The Disco - Victorious is a good song
It's really unique too!!!!

Blurbs
R. City is at number 5!!!! That song and Ghost town are
About tied for purple but I gave it to R. City because I think
They have the better new album

I'm actually not happy that stitches is number one instead of
Shut up and dance I wanted a new record


Some of these songs I'm sure no one votes for anymore


Look at those streaks of red blue and green
Like there's a lot of streaks of the same color on the
Countdown this week


A few songs on the countdown went from Green to Blue
I don't like doing that but I have to.


Photograph is old it shouldn't be in the top 5

That's it for the blurbs join me next time in hit bound and the top
40 list

Album Review #27 Selena Gomez - Revival

This album is Selena Gomez' new album

It just released today so I thought I'd reviews

And just so you know next Friday when Demi Lovato's
Confident comes out I'll review that


But nuff said lets get on with the review


REVIEW TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


This album honestly is nothing special

There are a few decent/good tracks and a few Mediocre/bad
Tracks as well as most of the album being in the middle

Selena has a very mediocre voice as well, (I know they
Autotune her ) but she comes off as sounding boring
In this album


Another thing is yes I get she's maturing but a lot of her
"New mature songs" are really bland and still annoying


Now this album I don't think is bad ( a few good songs)
It's just really Meh it could have been better

Highlights Kill Em With Kindness Survivors
Good For You Same Old Love

Lowlights Most of the rest of the album


Selena Gomez is just a really mediocre an honestly overrated
Artist


Overall the album is average and lacking in any new or
Creative way it's basically a throwaway

I'll give it a 5/10 

If you haven't checked out my review for the new R. City
album you should

Album Review #26 R. City - What Dreams Are Made Of

Welcome back to another album review

The new album by R. City Came out today

It features the top 10 hit Locked Away featuring Adam
Levine.

Plus some other Pop/R&B/Rap tunes

I've been waiting for this album since August and
did it disappoint , well you'll have to find out


REVIEW TIME !!!!!

Before I review the album I'll tell you the story of R. City

Okay since Maroon 5 is like my favorite band
I searched Adam Levine because I knew he sang Lost Stars
Solo so I was wondering if he had anymore songs solo
I found "Locked Away" and I loved it
It was a really good tune that I thought would be a hit with
Adam Levine's Name on it

And now it is

I love that song

But do I like the rest of this album ?

I hate to be predictable but, yes

This album is great

There are some amazing songs on the album

It's kind of a mix of pop and rap

It works great

The best song on the album in my opinion is Again
It's an amazing song that will make you feel emotional
And it's just really great

There's also other great tracks like locked away
Checking for you, and like almost every track is great

The title for the album is very fitting too
You can feel the emotional depth in this album

Im glad most of this album is pop not rap because I
Think they're better as a pop group than rap

No major flaws Except slave to the dollar is a little too
Rapish for me it's a good song but probably the weakest on the
Album but I'm not too mad at that


Overall Great 9.5/10

My Thoughts On Mainstream Music / Radio

Welcome to a post I've wanted to do for a while
My thoughts on the word that is evil to some but good to
Others


Mainstream


Now what do I think of this ?

( Note. This will be a lengthy post so stay with me)

When I find an album on iTunes I like to read the reviews
And I like to read the album reviews. Nowdays, people
In the reviews have mentioned on numerous ocasions
About an artist going mainstream


Before I state my opinion on this I will tell you guys who
Don't know what it means.

When an artist goes mainstream they want to get more
Popular often times making their new music very radio-friendly
And changing themselves and their music to become a
More popular artist

Now why is this bad?


When an artist goes mainstream often times ( especially in EDM )
The music they make goes downhill because they are so focused on
Getting a radio hit that they use radio cliches and other things
To get a radio hit .

What really disappoints me about that is music is no longer
Popularized based on how good it is its just based on how big
The artist is in the mainstream.

I mean it seems like most mainstream music just could be better
It's hard to find flawless music with very few artists avoiding
The mainstream

Now it's good to see artists grow and gain popularity as long
As the quality of their music doesn't decline ( mostly EDM dj's
I'm talking about here )

On the radio often you'll often find electronic pop music
Because that's what's selling these days
Often times the vocals are good but the beats are pretty bland
( Not always, but sometimes ) And it really makes you wonder
If the artists get any creative control, ( which they probably don't )

Now I don't think all negative on mainstream there are still some
Positives


There are times I like an artists mainstream music more than
Their original.

Some radio hits are really good.

It's cool to see your favorite artists grow

And some other positives


But overall mainstream has a lot of positives and a lot of negatives


That's my thoughts on mainstream

Top 40 out soon stay tuned

Bye

Weeks at number 1 and I'm pretty sure hits 1 is not gonna
Let this song go without at least one more week At number 1

• Reciving Very few Airplay, Twenty One Pilots - Tear
In My Heart jumped 2 spots #wtf?


• Wow Want To Want Me is dropping with the annoying
Talking Body too that's good


• A Lot of Blue this week That's not bad but at the same
Time not good


• Rachel Platten - Fight Song has gotten really bad
Over the past couple of weeks. I Mute the
Radio when this song comes on


• Check my blog pretty soon for my new top 40 series
Any song is eligible for the list I'll explain more in the first
