Just letting people know that I do have a theory why this is picking up so well... 1) This is being used on a commercial that is being broadcasted on hundreds on stations across the country, including two of the major local stations. The commercial started airing about a month ago. 2) The DeBarge name, no matter how unknown that is to the general public, did influence some stations to add it. 3) The song samples a huge and extremely catchy hit. ("Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye" by Steam) 4) The sound of the song and her voice is reminiscent to that of Rihanna's "SOS". It can also be related to Flo Rida's "Right Round (feat. Kesha)" as well. 5) For some strange reason, Z100 decided to add this very early. It's adds date was actually today, but Z100 has been all over this for two weeks now. Maybe it's just a good song.

I have to agree is a great start...she doesn't have a music video and no promote the song yet. But I was expecting Jessie James doing better... She has a better voice, a better song and is prettier than Kristinia IMO Both are new artists that I'm in love. IDJ has made good choices for new artists this year.

It's extremely rare for radio to latch onto a debut single from a brand new artist with virtually no hype as quick as they have for this song and for Kristinia. She either has a great team or great luck. Probably a little of both.

A lot of Clear Channel stations added it very early. KISS here in Dallas has been spinning it for over three weeks now, and they barely ever add new artists early on.

People must be really responding well to the song for it to be that high on iTunes already.

But point 5 is obviously payola...

Have you ever paid attention to the music industry? Millions of songs are "good songs." There are about a hundred other factors that explain why only a handful race up the charts.

I can't help but think what a colossal hit this would of been if given to Rihanna instead of KD :O. Still, it will become a very big hit with this girl.

There are about a hundred other factors that explain why only a handful race up the charts. Yes I'm aware; but there are still songs that do exceptionally well due to being a good song. The reasons given seemed to kind of downplay the fact that it is a good song and overplay other factors. I'm just trying to point out that it being a good is a really important factor. There was no need for the condescension.

This can be THE SUMMER SONG. It's starting to explode, it will be top five for sure.
It's a catchy song , but for me there is a little payola.
