Oh goodness. I feel like this would have been a great move... a few months ago. Now I feel like it's too late for this to see any success on top 40 radio. Songs that get promoted to pop always do so after they run their course on country radio. Oh ok that makes sense then!

"Love Me Like You Mean It" probably won't be a very big crossover hit, but something on the same level of "Take Your Time"'s Top 30 peak on CHR would still be incredible, and regardless I think it's a smart move to help extend her reach and build her fanbase up more, which I'd love to see happen.

Congrats to Kelsea getting into the BB airplay Top 30. However I am stunned it's not on the mongrel chart.
I love hearing this on the radio it's just so much fun and just great.
I really hope Kelsea can breakout and not cause she's female. I genuinley like her music.

Kelsea just confirmed on Twitter she's singing dibs on jimmy kimmel live her first late night performance September 30th bit.ly/1HJbdXK this should help its sales and chart performance I would be surprised if didnt follow up LMLYMI and go top 20

Today was the first blip in Kelsea's chart run as "Dibs" lost 116k in audience but quite a few songs had a less than favorable update today. "Dibs" has gained 86 spins and 300k in audience so far this week and its gained a whopping 6.3 million in MB audience over the past 25 days. The song continues to sell well too as its currently #31 on the Country iTunes chart and #138 on the all-genre chart. Kelsea's momentum is sky high right now and "Dibs'" chart run is proof. This one looks to be another big hit for her and Black River.

"And there are a lot of girls on the charts right now who'll probably have Number Ones or close to it." I wish! There are a lot of talented female artists, that's for sure, but that doesn't mean they'll have big hits, especially with the way country radio is right now. I can only hope...

I would like to know who these girls are Honestly, she's probably just saying that to be respectful to the other women that are charting. It's not easy for women to get to the top and Kelsea is probably going to be two for two. She probably didn't want to rub their noses in it.

Then this is what she should have said tbh: "there are a lot of girls on the charts right now who are working hard to get their first Number Ones". I'm just being nitpicky here, I know, but she just rubbed me off too delusional.

I was just so bugged about this from Kelsea when I think she said how honored she was to be announcing the noms for the CMAs with Steven Tyler. Just something about it irked me like if this was George Strait, Alan Jackson or someone like that I think Kelsea would probably be like "Who is that?" Cause I've actual come around and I for one don't see Kelsea lasting much longer like she'll be truly breakout and stick. Her album sold terribly and her single sales are above average at best. I think Dibs will do well but her lack of good sales for her album has me believe Kelsea might run into some bad luck with her 3rd song next year.
Honestly I wouldn't complain I'd take Cam over Kelsea any day as one is country thru and thru while Kelsea is more pop. Sorry for the change but it happens.

Honestly I wouldn't complain I'd take Cam over Kelsea any day as one is country thru and thru while Kelsea is more pop. Sorry for the change but it happens. There's so much wrong with this. 1. Steven Tyler is a rock legend, like it or not. It would be rude not to be honored to announce anything with him. Whether he's really qualified to sing country music or not is debatable, but the man is a huge icon in his own right. Also, you're reading waaaay too much into it to imply that she knows who he is but wouldn't know who Alan or George are. I guarantee she knows exactly who both of them are and is a fan of both. She's made it abundantly clear that she is a country music fan and that's why she sings country music. Let's not go making up ridiculous theories. 2. She's doing better than any of the other girls and I definitely think she's on the fast track to being the next female A-lister, for sure. Cam's single is a success because of OTV, but "God Made Girls" was a big hit too and sold a lot... but then "For a Boy" peaked at #58 and where is RaeLynn now? "Burning House" is not indicative of Cam becoming a mainstay at all. We'll have to see how she does after it peaks to be able to tell, because there's still a (sadly) high chance that she doesn't replicate that success. The tides are changing so hopefully she'll be able to get another hit, but Kelsea's follow-up is already proving itself to be another hit. "Dibs" is looking like it'll be a Top 10 hit to me, for sure, which is far better than any other new girls can say about their chart trajectory thus far, aside from Maddie & Tae who just did the same thing (everyone else has had like 1 hit and then a bunch of middling performances, like Kacey and Jana).

Fair enough it's just for the amount of hype she had before her album dropped I mean I just expected better sales from her album. The whole Steven Tyler thing is actually me more or less just expressing what's wrong right now in country music where we have to a washed up rocker announce nominations. Yeah yeah he has a song out on country radio but still him attempting country screams a money grab and trying to remain relevant. No what really bugs me is they couldn't get an actual country artist to present you had to get a rocker and a pop girl pretending to be country because I've finally realized her music is pop and she should take it with her. Look for now Kelsea is doing great and good for her. But I won't shed a tear if she becomes irrelevant because they are so many more female artists who deserve to get heard over Kelsea (ex Jana, Ashley Monroe, Cam, Kacey Musgraves if radio realizes she can attract an actual country audience). Her music is pop with a token banjo to fool others into believing it's country (just now realizing that) and just I'm not convinced she has a ton of staying power given her album not having good sales whatsoever and for her single sales while solid aren't anyting that blows others out of the water. I think mainstream radio still needs to find it's next female breakout star and Cam deserves that over Kelsea anyday. An A-Lister also doesn't open to those poor sales I meant becoming an A-lister. Basically,I'm hoping it's an artist like Cam or hopefully Mickey Guyton who breaks out since both make actual country. Cam song is country and has some amazing lyrics. Kelsea's song Dibs is a bro-country song from the female perspective and she's calling Dibs on some guy she sees (probably at a bar) not to mention the awful spoken word part. I'm not convinced Kelsea will truly stick and honestly I don't care as she is one of the artists ruining the genre of country music with bad pop songs and I will be happy truly if she loses popularity. If you disagree with me find whatever but I remain behind on my stance.

I'd prefer better women out there to be successful, but if Kelsea is the only shot at another solo female country will play besides Carrie/Miranda, we can at least be grateful it wasn't RaeLynn. *shudder*

LOL Yeah, that awful baby voice RaeLynn made was dreadful! I for one, am a fan of Kelsea. Sure, she might be leaning to the pop side, but so was Taylor Swift, and even at her poppier side while still country (I mean, her Red album) she found success and everybody loved her. She was even nominated at best country album... and that album had songs like I Knew You Were Trouble and 22. I think anything on Kelseas's album is countrier than those two songs. Why hate on her because she leans to the pop side? She's getting success, and it's not like she's stopping other females from going higher in the charts. It would be another story if the top 5 was females and she was at number 1 for 10 weeks. Then yes, she would be blocking them and people could get angry. But she's releasing her music and the female competition is Cam, Carrie and Maddie & Tae, hardly a situation where you can get mad at her.
Still, I hope they release XO as a single, cause that song rocks!

Poor RaeLynn...getting bashed in a thread that isn't even hers. I actually really love RaeLynn, and find her "baby voice" to be a cute, unique, and distinguishable style. She is one of my favorite new female artists right now, along with Kelsea and Cassadee Pope.
This continues to do exceptionally well in terms of airplay and sales. It's selling better than current singles from Blake Shelton, Tim McGraw, Jason Aldean, and The Band Perry and is selling about on par with Dan + Shay's "Nothin' Like You," which is all the way up at #15, while this checked in at #28 on the last Billboard airplay chart. Two other songs selling about as well are "Smokin' and Drinkin'" and "I Got the Boy." Unfortunately, these two aren't quite measuring up in terms of airplay. Both appear to be testing rather poorly with the research panels and, although I don't agree with this approach, radio prefers songs that aren't selling as much but don't yield high negatives on the Callout charts over songs that are really popular, appeal to a wide variety of listeners, and sell a lot but don't test as well with radio listeners. The reason I think this approach is flawed is because it's basically relying on only the people you already have listening to your radio station to decide which songs to play, and it takes away the potential to expand your audience to a wider variety of listeners who aren't currently part of the research panels.
Anyway, "Dibs" is doing fine on the research front. It's at #9 overall on Bullseye Callout and #7 overall on Callout America. It's also testing really well with the males, as it's #4 among males on Bullseye Callout and #8 among males on Callout America. Kelsea's definitely got a bright future ahead in country music, and right now I'm cautiously optimistic this could be her second #1. It should at least go Top 5 if the early numbers are any indication.

I think Kelsea can have a bright future but she needs to step up those album sales her opening sales were just awful no matter what way you slice it if she really wants to step up her sales have to go up as a whole. Otherwise I'm not convinced she's the next big thing. I see her as a B-lister in the future like with Joe Nichols. This girl screams Taylor Swift wanna-be with no artistic identity.

Well her sales might go up once she establishes herself with a few hit singles. Name recognition is everything for sales now, and nobody should expect her to sell with the big boys yet. Luke Bryan didn't start out a major seller either, and neither did Jason Aldean. Miranda Lambert took a while to create some buzz as well. I agree that her album sales could certainly be better, but it's not like any other new artists are out selling her either. Maddie & Tae had a better first week (but had 2 hit songs already) and Sam Hunt did obviously, but that's about it. Nothing is guaranteed, but with radio seeming to behind Kelsea, one could argue that was the biggest hurdle to be climbed. Album #2 sales are where we really learn who's popular or not. Brantley Gilbert proved he's worthy of A-list consideration with his second effort, and Brett Eldredge and Thomas Rhett will be put up to the challenge now.

The lyrics are pretty good, and the production has similar quirks to the ones I liked in "Love Me Like You Mean It". But My God, does she sound annoying on this. She sounds like she's trying way too hard to affect a twang, and those spoken word parts are just about painful to listen to. "Ayuhm cawawulin' deeeyubs." You're not Aaron Tippin, lady; back off on the drawl.

You're not Aaron Tippin, lady; back off on the drawl. I don't hear all of these extra syllables you speak of when I listen to the song. Not sure why it's a problem anyway though since I think it's one of the more defining qualities of a good country music voice. But to each their own. Ashton Shepherd's voice (for instance) annoys my mom, but the way she drags out her syllables takes me to another place.

Ashton Shepherd's voice (for instance) annoys my mom, but the way she drags out her syllables takes me to another place. I'm another who finds Kelsea's delivery to be incredibly affected in this song. To address your Ashton comparison, the two main differences between the delivery in "Dibs" and Ashton's music to my ears are: 1) Ashton's stylized delivery fits her natural cadence and her lyrics, whereas Kelsea's doesn't and 2) as I noted earlier in this thread, Kelsea attempts both a twangy drawl and street-speak in the same song and the juxtaposition makes her sound unnatural on both. I still don't believe Kelsea's success at radio, should it continue, does much if anything to advance the cause of women at country radio. But I didn't read much into her gushing over Steven Tyler. Frankly, I think that she would have been "honored" to present with whomever it was she had been paired with for purposes of announcing the nominations. She and her team have very smartly pulled from the Taylor Swift playbook in making sure anyone and everyone she encounters feels good about the encounter and in humble-bragging about any possible milestone as such. It's a necessity, perhaps especially as a woman trying to make it at country radio, to be this way -- look at what has happened with Kacey Musgraves at country radio despite the fact that Kacey was considerably more popular out of gate (and, of course, remains more popular now).

I just think Steven and Kelsea announcing the noms speaks more about what has happened to country music. We have a former rock star with one country single so he shouldn't even be qualified. Then we have a pop singer who should take her AWFUL pop music away from country music cause Dibs is not well written it's Kelsea catering to the bros and she should take her pop music out of country.

I don't know why you went from this a few months ago: Words can't describe my excitement for this. I hope this can officially get her to stick with radio. This has smash all over it. Hopefully given the chart congestion this won't get lost in the shuffle. Overall I love the song cause it to me is pop-country perfection. So excited for when this will officially start charting. Hopefully by July. To hating this/Kelsea Ballerini now, but it's as transparent and annoying as some people seem to find her voice on this song. Have several seats.

Sorry .indulgecountry I decided this summer to listen and compare 2000s country music to nows. Kelsea's music just sticks out way too much as pop garbage. If you put The First Time against albums 10 years ago and it just comes off as a pop album. Kelsea seems like a nice girl even if I believe some of the stuff she says is scripted. Look Kelsea music screams pop and Dibs is a poor excuse for a song it's not good pop music and it sure isn't country. She screams to me a Taylor Swift wannabe. I wish her the best but I won't shed a tear if she never does stick.

Sorry but I just can't take you seriously when you go from one extreme to the other so often which I've seen you do, and this is definitely the most glaring example. It's very fake when you talk about the song being "perfection" and hoping it makes her stick as a radio artist to saying... the exact opposite a couple months later when literally nothing has changed, lmao. And your arguments here make no sense to me at all, especially with respect to your original opinion of the song/Kelsea.

With all due respect, EVERY post of yours in this thread is a complaint about something, whether it be about Kelsia, Steven or "Dibs." You could've easily spoken up with just one post, instead of rehasing the same thoughts several times. Anyway, I was apathetic toward "Love Me Like You Mean It," but this is just terrible. The vocals are childish, the lyrics are boderline sexist (If a male artist sang about calling "Dibs" on a female/her various body parts, he would be called a sexist pig), and the song is just bad.

If you put The First Time against albums 10 years ago and it just comes off as a pop album. Kelsea seems like a nice girl even if I believe some of the stuff she says is scripted. Look Kelsea music screams pop and Dibs is a poor excuse for a song it's not good pop music and it sure isn't country. She screams to me a Taylor Swift wannabe. I wish her the best but I won't shed a tear if she never does stick. Sorry but I just can't take you seriously when you go from one extreme to the other so often which I've seen you do, and this is definitely the most glaring example. It's very fake when you talk about the song being "perfection" and hoping it makes her stick as a radio artist to saying... the exact opposite a couple months later when literally nothing has changed, lmao. And your arguments here make no sense to me at all, especially with respect to your original opinion of the song/Kelsea. Ok sorry opinions change drastically sorry that I finally realized this was pop music. The more I looked at what was country-pop or pop-country the more obvious it was that Kelsea's music was pop and with the exception of a few songs off her debut album ( Peter Pan, Secondhand Smoke, and The First Time) just not well written like sorry I just found a lot better artists that do what Kelsea does just so much better. You know it just became obvious to me Kelsea's team is trying to make her the second coming of Taylor Swift just Taylor Swift has way better songs and at least Taylor's beginning albums sounded pretty good.

Just a note, you can like a song and not think it's country. The fact that you like a song shouldn't change just because you realize it's more pop than you realized. That would be like me loving an Italian dish, and then someone telling me it was actually French cuisine and then I hate it.
