Jfc it's pop music, most people already don't take it seriously in the first place. They want to have fun when it's on the radio, youtube it etc, so if the song is good there should be no "authenticity" issues affecting its performance imo (other than the natural causes that can affect any other song as well)..... Authenticity isn't even directly part of the equation here because it's pop radio, as you've said. But it doesn't change the fact that Iggy's overall reputation is so piss poor right now that it's "cool" to disown her. For pop radio, it doesn't matter WHY she's getting bad press or HOW her image issues began. It just matters that she fell from grace with the general public. But what's "cool" can easily change with a simple release/event, especially nowadays in social media with everything being so fickle, which is what I meant with "if the song is good..." part. Britney is a pop legend, and Iggy regardless of the negative press (which mainly affects her image as a hip hop artist) is still a hot name right now, I doubt radio won't play a hot track just because they want to follow the social media bandwagon. And last time I checked yesterday the likes of Vogue were still booking Iggy for multiple interviews, I doubt Twitter and vine will impact her career as much as you believe in the long run but I guess we'll have to wait & see

Iggy fans are just pressed that her rep is so bad that Britney fans, the thirstiest fanbase in the industry, are willing to shelve new music because her name is attached to it.

Iggy just came off a Record of the Year nomination and was named Billboard's top new artist, dont act like her situation is worse when its Britney's team that came knocking at her door for a feature and her producers.

And the Grammys got a s**t ton of slack just for nominating her and Billboard's Year End charts reflect the period of time before her ship began to sink... so what's your point? What does any of this say about the state of Iggy's reputation right NOW??

Not to mention anyone who thinks Britney Spears's career is reliant on this single is literally batshit. Her next era could bomb harder than her last and she'd still be laughing her way to the bank with those Vegas checks. Yall out here trying to throw shade with a sapling acting like its a whole damn forest. Please.

This should be an exciting time for both fanbases and the song could end up benefiting both artists. I'm excited for this!

Yall better get your coins ready come may or whenever this is released lol In what world does a massively successful Vegas residency not count when discussing her career as a solo artist? When it's inconvenient to you? I guess you're also willing to overlook that the only reason Britney got Iggy on the track was because she likes her. It has nothing to do with her baiting for a comeback hit, especially when this single is just for the hell of it and not part of an album. I believe allow that brought up some great points about Iggy as well. As flattered as I am that you're so enamored with me, why not tackle that? Please stay out of my notifications until you get your facts straight.

Please stay out of my notifications until you get your facts straight. because that residency isnt going to help her secure a hit, and thats what we are here to discuss. you're delusional if you really think Britney got Iggy on this track because she ~likes her~. everything she does is calculated by her management, at the time this was recorded Iggy was the hottest new act on the scene and thats the reason they asked for a feature. Allow That was right, Iggy has been getting backlash lately but to the GP she's still a hot ticket. Please stay in my notifications because i LOVE seeing Britney fans discuss their delusions and im certainitly doing a good job of getting that out of you :kii:

Britney has managed to bounce back from 'Radar' with '3', bounced back from 'Criminal' w/ 'Scream and Shout', etc. Britney's shown in the past that she can bounce back time and time again and having a single or two not do well has never hurt her in the grand scheme of things. It really doesn't matter where Iggy was when they first approached her what matters is where she is now. Iggy is certainly in no place to go about resurrecting careers (not that Britney needed her to). If this does well it be b/c the song is good and Britney had the good instinct to record it not b/c of Iggy's feature. At most, Iggy will get the song more rhythmic airplay.

Britneys last era bore ZERO hits and the album tanked. Meanwhile, Iggy has become a chart commodity in the last year and her producers "The Invisible Men" worked on this song. If this isn't latching onto a hot new artist and their sound for a hit then I don't know what is...

Why are Iggy stans pulling a Pitbull-type-of-resurrecting-careers thing now? Just STOP!!! you have to be thankful that the Legendary Miss Britney Spears approached your Iggy to make a song with her.

If this isn't latching onto a hot new artist and their sound for a hit then I don't know what is... I'd argue that WB was a moderate hit but even if we were to go with your premise, that's only two singles. Two singles that don't do well won't hurt Britney in the grand scheme of things. Also, when Britney heard this track it was a Little Mix song that they wrote and chose not to use for their album. The producers may have also happened to have worked with Iggy but this song was intended to be a Little Mix song not an Iggy song. So if Britney is latching on an artist's sound, it would be Little Mix's sound not Iggy's and Little Mix certainly are not a hot commodity here.
