The year of K.Dot rolls on as Kendrick Lamar reclaims the top spot on the FearlessRiOT Top 20 Countdown. How long “HUMBLE.” can hold on to #1 depends on how much steam Stitched Up Heart can muster for “Catch Me When I Fall”; the hard rock band fly up to #2, which a good chance to eventually claim their second #1 song following “Finally Free”. Last week’s #1 song, “Saturnz Barz” from Gorillaz, falls two #3 after a couple of weeks on top while “That’s What I Like” from Bruno Mars remains at #4 and and Paramore takes #5 with “Hard Times”. Rounding out the Top 10 are “Thumbs” from Sabrina Carpenter (#6), “Stay” from Zedd & Alessia Cara (#7), “I’m the One” from DJ Khaled, Justin Bieber, Chance The Rapper, Quavo, & Lil Wayne (#8), “Feel the Flame (Ember Moon)” from WWE’s CFO$ (#9), and In This Moment returning to the Top 10 with “Oh Lord”. The sole countdown debut of the week is the widely talked-about duet from Halsey and Fifth Harmony‘s Lauren Jauregui.

And on a final note, remember to keep the victims and relatives of the Manchester bombing in your prayers. What was meant to be a fun night of music for fans of Ariana Grande unfortunately ended in the death of 22 fans, a cruel reminder of how tragically cruel and hateful some people are, that they feel justified in threatening the recreational freedom of innocent people who just want to have a good time. It’s important that we don’t allow terrorism to win.
