A host of new songs debut on this week’s Billboard Hot 100.
In addition to welcoming Chris Young’s “I’m Comin’ Over,” Maroon 5’s “This Summer’s Gonna Hurt,” Nick Fradiani’s “Beautiful Life” and Sawyer Fredericks’ “A Thousand Years,” this week’s Hot 100 also includes inaugural appearances by DJ Khaled’s “How Many Times (featuring Chris Brown, Lil Wayne and Big Sean),” Pitbull’s “Fun (featuring Chris Brown)” and Ed Sheeran’s “Photograph.”
Khaled’s tune arrives at #74 on the all-encompassing Hot 100. It also starts at #28 on the Digital Songs subchart.
Pitbull’s new song, which arrives at #77 on the heels of exposure from “American Idol” and the Billboard Music Awards (at the last minute), opens at #44 on Digital Songs.
Sheeran’s “Photograph” launches at #92 on the chart. While it is beginning to gain streaming, sales and radio traction, it does not appear on any subchart.
