Billboard just hit refresh — and it’s already changing the game.

In this week’s episode, we dive into the new recurrent rule reshaping the Hot 100, the songs finally making their exits, and the fresh faces stepping into the spotlight. Taylor Swift’s “The Fate of Ophelia” still reigns supreme, but the “Golden” showdown we’ve been waiting for hasn’t arrived… yet.

We talk Olivia Dean and Leon Thomas finally breaking into the Top 10 and Kehlani’s steady climb with Folded. Plus, the inevitable rise of Dracula by Tame Impala, Sabrina Carpenter’s When Did You Get Hot, and an upcoming Halloween boost led by Michael Jackson, Lady Gaga, and more.

And yes — we unpack sombr's concert controversy, and why sometimes, the best clapback is simply a great performance.
