I think I should be disappointed by the fact that it has a negative bullet. PS: You are almost a diamond member! What's gonna be your epic 10,000th post? It'll be related to Kiss It Better...or maybe a look back at being a member for 10 9 years. Fixed

The song already impacted culture in a big way, even if its negative. The "Work" memes were everywhere and all over popular media. People talking about the nonsense lyrics and then the song slayed for 9 weeks. It doesn't matter if 2000 had streaming compared to 2016 or not. (Random years) It was still a massive #1 hit and it is one of the biggest songs going off the Hot 100 alone. No one is gonna try and convince me otherwise lol Actually, we are trying, but apparently failing. But whatever, you're right! Chart stats are the end all be all to determine a song's overall performance! Comparing it to nothing else ever is the best way! Come on! How you dare saying that 50 Cent's Candy Shop is NOT one of the biggest songs of all time. That masterpiece is clearly well remembered and its legacy addressed by all rap lovers of this new generation!!

They really played this dirty. Even before the Calvin collaboration was announced, it seemed like this was set to be overshadowed by "Needed Me." It seemed like they gave up before they even began with the quiet release of a video before the song even went to radio.
Now that Calvin's song is coming out, and assuming it'll be a hit because Pop is thirsty for Rihanna music that's catered to them, this could have been saved for a follow-up to that in the late summer. It could have served as a follow-up to "Needed Me" at Urban/Rhythmic as well because if this had a full push, it still sounds like a cross format smash to me.

Considering the latest pop charts, I wouldnt say EDM is more suited than Urban at Pop radio anymore. We'll see.

I feel bad for Rihanna considering this is what happened with American Oxygen& FourFiveSeconds(i think it was this or BBHMM). At least it means one of them is going to become a huge summer hit(maybe)

I can't remember who suggested that KIB was released as a sort of obligation after Glass John cut up sideways and threatened to withhold it from the album, but I'm now wondering if there was some truth to that, and this is purposely being paid dust as an 'eff you bitch, we didn't need your song anyway - we'll stack our hits elsewhere' to him because of it. That's the only thing that really explains its release to me. Such a shame - this song deserves so much better.

That's the only thing that really explains its release to me. Such a shame - this song deserves so much better. Maybe there is some truth to this but maybe the "General Public" doesn't like it as much as the "Pulse Board". I like this song but I thought it was going to be the 2nd coming after reading the reviews here for it. Perhaps they thought this would smash on it's own much like "Needed Me" is doing. I didn't think the double release was absolutely necessary but now with the Calvin song coming out maybe they will let it ride out.

This still makes me cringe. I hope with the new Calvin song this just goes away quickly.

3 Rihanna songs on the radio is maybe a bit much and this is probably going to be the one that suffers.

The sad thing is that although it's starting to rise nicely on Itunes it's during absolutely horrible on Spotify. Not even Top 100. While Needed Me (the alternate "Urban single") is Top 5 on Spotify and Top 10 ITunes without the Prince and Lemonade album tracks.

This is like the "XO" of this album for me... and by that I mean my favorite track getting lost in the shuffle. I don't see this going top 10 at pop by any stretch, unfortunately.

#21 on building. That would put it at #20 on the official chart since My House will be going recurrent this week, but it may lose its position to Pink's "Just Like Fire," which is 18 spins behind and gaining faster.

15 more adds on Pop (152/188 stations or ~81% of the panel so far) and 2 adds on Hot AC.

This is definitely not done. Maybe it's just picking up steam, slowly but surely.
