It’s decent song, but wow doing absolutely nothing on streaming and overall going unnoticed. JT honestly has one of the most surprising/shocking career trajectories by an artist in recent times. It is fascinating to me. In the 2000s he seemed like *the* most universally loved popstar. His music was loved by women, straight men, the black community, etc. All across the board. Then in 2013 he had that huge comeback which seemed to just cement his status as ascending into legendary. It seemed as if the status Beyoncé has become was what also what he was destined to be. Even in 2016, the first Trolls single "Can’t Stop the Feeling" debuts at #1 and just becomes a massive smash effortlessly. Then we get the Man of the Woods flub and it's just been further and further descending. 10 years ago an NSYNC comeback single woulda seemed like an easy chart hit and gathered lots of consumption and public interest. This just completely went under the radar even with a massive radio push. It seems like if he dropped a new album today absolutely nobody would be interested. 10 years ago he seemed to be on a Beyoncé trajectory and now its like he instead reached a Katy Perry trajectory. It’s called karma catching up to him after all these years. I wouldn’t touch one of his albums with a ten foot pole after everything he’s done in the shadows over the years 🤮 |

Eighth day effect. HAC and AC saw audience levels increase massively across the board towards the top of the chart, so the audience losses today on those formats aren't as pronounced on today's update than it otherwise might have been.

It's wild what this is doing on radio given the absolute floppage on streaming.

That's a pretty amazing debut (and potential peak) for them all things considered in 2023

The 2nd week will most likely see them fall out of the top 50 on billboard hot 100. DRAKE is coming to take over on next week's billboard hot 100 chart.
And the week after its Taylor swift re-recorded 1989 (Taylor version) coming to dethrone Drake and dominate.
It'll be interesting to see if the movie will have big impact on "Better Place" because so far the song flopping worldwide.
Can't stop the feeling was smashing hard from the get go globally if I'm not mistaken.

I heard this song at least twice today, so radio is really pushing this.

It’s called karma catching up to him after all these years. I wouldn’t touch one of his albums with a ten foot pole after everything he’s done in the shadows over the years 🤮 Why? What did he do? The whole Janet Jackson SuperBowl drama and him kind of throwing her under the bus and then doing a song with Nelly Furtardo and TIMBALAND about it. I think he ripped on Prince during the same song. Throwing Britney Spears under the bus a bit. People accuse him of white privilege as he had corn rolls in his hair a few years prior to ripping on 2 black artists. I’m pretty sure people think he thought he was too big for NSYNC, but is now coming back for them because his last studio album kind of bombed for him. I’m sure there’s other things, but these are the first ones I can think of?? |

The label deserves equal blame in this too. |

the "we're going to make you pay!!" lynchmob mentality towards Justin Timberlake is tiresome. It's been decades. Let the man age.
and yes, he was too big for Nsync, just like any frontrunner of a group who goes on to do solo work is. There are too many to name. It's the music industry. It's cutthroat.

Glad somebody brought it up. I really wish this would crumble but the general public is misogynistic and like their catchy bad children's pop so I think this is going to go Top 10 and JT will get away with it, as he always has. |

The song is bad and is being completely carried by radio payola. The streaming numbers show the public said NO. |
