Chart notes:
   American musician Jordy takes the #1 position on the LGBT chart this week, as "All Good" rises three more spots. Jordy (whose real name is Jordy Schulman) earned a degree in literature from Boston University before relocating to Los Angeles to pursue a career in music. The video racked up an additional 234 views on YouTube over the past seven days. (That's an increase of 7.28% from the previous week.)

   Ten songs fell off the chart this week to make way for ten new songs. The highest debut of the week was "Sugar" by American rap collective Brockhampton and American vocalist Ryan Beatty, entering the chart at #29. Brockhampton currently has 13 permanent members, all of whom identify as gay, They've also released a remix of the track featuring English singer Dua Lipa. Ryan Beatty now has two tracks on the LGBT chart, as his solo video for "Casino" debuted last week and is now moving up 10 spots to #36.

   Chart positions are based on points assigned from (1) the previous week's position, (2) length of time on the chart, (3) views on YouTube from the past seven days, (4) percentage of increase in views from the week prior, (5) my votes, and (6) any votes I've received by Wednesday morning. If you'd like to vote for your favorite songs, please feel free to leave a comment on this blog or send me a private message (see the contact info above).
