"Trap Queen"? "Worth It"? "Want To Want Me"? "No Control"? What's going to rule the Hot 100 this summer? Cast your vote now!
The weather is improving, Memorial Day is fast approaching and the Song of the Summer debate has started to reach a boiling point: it's time for the annual act of pondering which single will dominate Top 40 radio during the hottest season of the year. And although 2015's Song of the Summer may not even be released yet, chances are that pop fans have already gotten an earful of the single that will take the torch from last summer's defining track, Iggy Azalea's "Fancy."

So what will it be? Can Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth keep their No. 1 run going through June and July? Is Fetty Wap's "Trap Queen" too undeniable, even to non-rap fans? What about Top 20 newcomers like Walk The Moon and Andy Grammer, or mainstream mainstays like Jason Derulo and Ellie Goulding? And then there's the superstar diva collective of Taylor Swift, Rihanna and Britney Spears: can "Bad Blood," "B--ch Better Have My Money" or the Azalea collaboration "Pretty Girls" take over the Hot 100?
