New Entrants
~ Our first debut of the week comes from Sabrina Carpenter with her new single, and most successful one thus far, Why. I have loved this girl's music from the start. Some of my favorite singles from her have included The Middle Of Starting Over and On Purpose. I am so thankful such a great artist like her is finally making a breakthrough. This song's predecessor, Thumbs did decent as well. As for the song, my only complaint is that it is too short. I love the vocals in the song, like usual with Sabrina. The production is very cool and I enjoy the choppy vocals very much. I really hope this one will do good here. She deserves it. She is a fantastic artist.
~ Our second new one this week comes from Selena Gomez. The song is Fetish. This station decided to cut out Gucci Mane, which I don't mind. His part didn't mean a whole lot to me in the song. The song is quite repetitive, but I have been enjoying it for a couple of months. It's definitely not better than Bad Liar, it's predecessor, but it's decent. I'm not sure how this one will do here, so I'm just going to leave it at that.
~ Our third and final debut of the week has the most important message. You are not alone. There is always help. Logic and Alessia Cara, along with Khalid debuted with 1-800-273-8255 this week. This song's title is the suicide prevention hotline. My utmost favorite part of this song is the absolutely beautiful message it brings. This possibly may be one of the best messages a song has had this year. If not, the best. The vocals are quite decent, as well. I really hope this song does well here. I'm glad it made it's way to this station.
