Chris Espinosa on Nostr: I’m looking at the final Billboard Hot 100 for 2023 and I can’t find a single ...
I’m looking at the final Billboard Hot 100 for 2023 and I can’t find a single song that would be considered “rock” of any kind. There’s R&B, adult contemporary, pop, K-pop, country—even the usual five Christmas songs. But no rock. Last year there were a couple rock-ish pop songs and a Kate Bush reissue.
There was a lot of good rock this year. A new song by the Linda Lindas, new Stones and Metallica, Geddy Lee, Chemtrails, Big Wreck, Palaye Royale, Cassidy Paris. None of them made the charts.
