ADÉLA continues to make an impressive run with “Ain’t In LA,” keeping the Slovak singer-songwriter in contention against some of pop’s biggest names. The track has survived each previous stage of the bracket and now represents one of the competition’s most closely followed breakout contenders.
Olivia Rodrigo has the largest presence in Round 4, with two songs still alive. “Stupid Song” and “The Cure” both advanced, giving Rodrigo two opportunities to reach the final matchup and extending the momentum around her third studio album, you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love.
That album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with 485,000 equivalent album units. Rodrigo’s double representation makes her the only artist with two solo tracks remaining at this stage of the InMusic bracket.
Ariana Grande’s “Hate That I Made You Love Me” completes the Round 4 lineup. The song has remained in the competition through multiple rounds of voting, putting Grande one step away from a place in the championship matchup.
The current four-song field follows the elimination of several high-profile summer releases. Earlier rounds saw Shakira and Burna Boy’s “Dai Dai,” Karol G, Judeline and Rusowsky’s “Bby Wow,” LISA and Anyma’s “Bad Angel” and other fan-backed tracks exit the tournament.
The competition originally featured 32 songs spanning major pop stars, rising artists and high-profile collaborations. Among the artists represented in the earlier rounds were Taylor Swift, Tyla, Zara Larsson, KATSEYE and the LE SSERAFIM, ILLIT and KATSEYE collaboration “Iconic By Mistake.”
With four songs remaining, the bracket now moves into its decisive stage. Fans can follow the Round 4 matchups and cast their votes through InMusic’s Instagram Stories, with the results determining which songs advance to the final battle for the InMusic Song of the Summer 2026 title.
