BUMP IT Or DUMP IT!, VOL. 125



[Strong Bump] = Unquestionable Smash Hit.  Extremely rewind-worthy and one of the better records out currently. Next to no flaws to pick out, that you'll be supporting/playing daily.  Something you predict will be a Top-15 Hit or higher.

[Weak Bump] = A Good Moderate Hit. Quality & above average; has more positives than negatives.  Might need to grow on you/others, but could catch on.  Not a clear smash hit, but something you'd genuinely want people to check out, so you’ll be supporting/playing it occasionally. Something you predict will be a Top-50 hit.

[Weak Dump] = Sup-Par Record. Not bad, but definitely missing the mark somewhere. More negatives than positives. Listenable, as you might like some parts but not the whole composition.  You don’t hate it and could understand its buzz, but you know you won’t be supporting/playing it much.  Something you predict that won’t be on airwaves very long or have much replay value.

[Strong Dump] = Complete Trash.  A record you absolutely hate and has next to no positives at all.  Garbage, and a waste of your time; that you’d want to warn people away from.  Something that you’re sure you’ll never be supporting/playing ever, and predict that it’ll fail commercially.

Green = Rising
Red = Declining

 BUMP IT Or DUMP IT!, VOL. 125
"IF I CAN'T HAVE YOU"(Shawn Mendes),
Debuting @ #25 on Pop formats;
Shipped to Rhythmic/Club + Urban 05/03/19;
via Island/Republic.,
[beginning w/ 2,746 + 87 + 70 Daily US Spins]. – It’s pretty good, it’s up beat, it’s a bit of a toe tapper. It’s the type of song that’ll be popular in suburban areas, you might hear it on a tv show or something. It may get a few spins enough for urban format listeners to be aware that the song exist, but not enough for spins for it to chart or get regular rotation. It’ll do well with top 40 audiences and chart in 15-25 area on pop formats. – Weak Bump 

"WOBBLE UP"(Chris Brown f/ Nicki Minaj & G-Eazy),
Debuting @ #37 on Urban formats;
Debuting @ #39 on Rhythmic/Club formats;
via RCA.,
[beginning w/ 1,021 + 694 Daily US Spins]. Ok it’s clearly made for the clubs/ strip club, it’ll do well in the south and make women twerk as it’s a clear sample from Magnolia Shorty. I’m not a huge fan of the song, but it’ll do well because it’s Chris Brown. I can see it charting in on Urban and Rhythmic /Club in the 30-40 range. Weak Bump

"SLIDE"(French Montana f/ Blueface & Lil TJay),
Debuting @ #32 on Rhythmic/Club formats;
Shipped to Urban 04/23/19;
via Coke Boys/Epic.,
[beginning w/ 845 + 312 Daily US Spins]. – I could see this playing in the club. I could see it getting mixed in on the radio. This could possibly be a summer hit. I’m not a huge fan of it, it’s the type of song that would get on my nerves rather quickly due to it’s simplicity , but I do like the energy. I can see it charting in the 30-40 range on Rhythmic and possibly in the 35-45 range on Urban. – Weak Bump

"TRAP"(Saint Jhn f/ Lil Baby),
Debuting @ #44 on Urban formats;
via Godd Complexx/HITCO LLC.,
[beginning w/ 739 Daily US Spins]. – Not a fan at all. I don’t like the production, I don’t like the delivery over the beat, Lil Baby made the best of the situation but the beat doesn’t flatter his style. I wouldn’t be shocked to hear this on radio or in the club, all things considering. It’ll probably chart in the 40-45 range. – Strong Dump  

"IMPORTED"(Jessie Reyez f/ 6lack),
Debuting @ #43 on Rhythmic/Club formats;
Shipped to Urban 05/01/19;
via FMLY/Universal.,
[beginning w/ 696 + 127 Daily US Spins]. – I like the song but this is not the version of the song that I fell in love with. The original released version of this song was featuring JRM and the chemistry between Jessie and JRM is much better and their voices match better. This version is ok if you don’t know about the other version this one will do. I’m not a fan of this version, the writing and singing are not as strong by 6lack; and it’s not as catchy or soulful. This might still get some play on radio it has it’s best shot of charting surprisingly in Rhythmic, I wouldn’t be shocked if it started getting play in Adult /R&B formats also in the 35-45 range for both formats. – Weak Dump

"I LIKE GIRLS"(PnB Rock f/ Lil Skies),
Debuting @ #43 on Urban formats;
Shipped to Rhythmic/Club 05/02/19;
via Atlantic.,
[beginning w/ 635 + 222 Daily US Spins]. – I’m not a fan, the song is kind of repetitive and lacks substance or creativity. It’ll probably play and chart on Urban formats in the 35-45 range – Weak Dump 

"CRAZY AF"
(In Real Life),
Debuting @ #50 on Pop formats;
Shipped to Rhythmic/Club + Urban 04/13/19;
via Hollywood/Universal.,
[beginning w/ 484 Daily US Spins]. – It’s one of those relaxed, lazy day summer hits. Another song that’ll probably be big in the suburbs, but not really a hit in urban spaces but big enough to be known. I can see it charting on Pop formats in the 35-45 range. – Weak Dump

"SHEA BUTTER BABY"
(Ari Lennox f/ J. Cole),
Debuting @ #23 on Adult/R&B formats;
Shipped to Urban 04/16/19;
via Dreamville/Interscope.,
[beginning w/ 342 Daily US Spins]. – It’ll do well on Adult /R&B, it’s not catchy enough to work for any other formats. I’m not a huge fan it sounds like an original song someone would sing at a coffee house. It’ll chart in the 15-25 range for Adult/R&B and it’ll get minimal spins in other formats, probably early morning syndication spins and late evening spins. – Weak Dump

"ENERGY" (Big K.R.I.T.),
Shipped to Urban + Rhythmic/Club 04/21/19;
via Multi Alumni/BMG Dist.,
[beginning w/ 85 + 55 Daily US Spins]. I like the song, I like KRIT, but song is not radio-friendly, more like there’s no space on radio where they would show this type of record love. It’s good adult hip-hop, not for the club, not catchy or gimmicky.  I don’t think this will chart at all on any formats – Weak Bump
