WOW!!!

[hitseeker.]

I just can't at Rihanna's greatness, she's smashing on radio with OG, WMN and LTWYL (part 2), love it, go Rih!

[Deleted]

^ How will the album be doing?

[hitseeker.]

^hmm I predict 180-200k debut week sales, but not more than that, may be able to sell consistently though, let's see...

[d.t.m]

Rihanna should do 250k min this time.

[SPRΞΞ]

looks like Taylor has peaked.

[kingofpain]

Wow, Rihanna gets a shot with THREE singles with radio support, yet musicians like Robyn, Mumford & Sons, Florence & The Machine etc are struggling to get support with just one good single. Amazing. What is Rihanna's label paying all these radio stations???

nothing, she's just that gr8..run tell that

[kingofpain]

I have no problem with Only Girl, I actually really like the song. But really? Don't you think radio stations should stagger the release of her singles instead of promoting three or more at once? How is that fair to all these other artists who can't even get decent airplay? That's just blatant favoritism. I'm not saying Rihanna is $hit, I'm just saying that as a radio station PD, why are they favoring particular artists with MULTIPLE releases at once when artists are struggling to get even one single played??? How would you feel if Taylor Swift's label had radio stations promoting all TEN of her singles at once? You'd be pretty annoyed too.

All I'm saying is that radio should share the love and not be so blatantly obvious that they're getting something out of it.

[SPRΞΞ]

that's why "breaking records" is becoming all the more irrelevant. It's all payola.

[$uperb@tDuDe]

If we're playing the payola card it would apply to multiple artists such as Gaga, BEP, Usher, Ke$ha, Katy Perry, etc; All of whom have had insane amounts of spins especially at CHR/POP

[kingofpain]

Well weren't those above artists only promoting one single at a time? And even if they weren't, radio was only promoting one track at a time. In Rihanna's current case, she has THREE singles being promoted at once which is absolute BS.

I believe payola is all about breaking records, I just find it amazing that radio PD's aren't even subtle about it.

[SPRΞΞ]

^I agree with you. Not saying it's just Rihanna by any means. I'm sure Katy Perry is paying radio stations to play her songs. I don't mind, of course, but i'm sure it is happening. I'm sure the BEP's are FOR SURE paying radio stations to play their new song. But it's not the be-all-end-all of everything. There is still requests and call-out's and listener feedback and that sort of stuff. It's not 100% either way.

still tho, records are being broken more today than ever before. I wonder why?

[kingofpain]

The digital age is a huge factor I'm sure of it. It seems like lately, the average top 20 single can sell a million copies digitally.

Rihanna's next album may tank, but at least her label can milk money out of releasing as many singles as possible, which is their prerogative, but it's also the decision of radio PD's to play them all at once which is absolutely unfair to all the other artists.

[Junkiex]

LOL I guess the fact that both songs are also on the top of iTunes is because of payola. Radio is playing Rih because people want to hear to her music. REALITY CHECK!

[SPRΞΞ]

i agree, it is unfair. And that's why radio will become less and less relevant over time. It's bound to happen. It seems significant now, but imagine 10 years from now....playing 4 or 5 songs from every artist possibly. I think radio is doomed sooner or later anyways. I think they need to change the ratio on Billboard, too, cuz iTunes should have waaaaaaaaay more of a percentage of total ranking than it does now.

[kingofpain]

Yeah, it's not like the "variety" on radio is pretty slim now... but imagine, THREE songs from the one artist is ridiculous. It doesn't matter if the song is "blowing up" on itunes, that's got nothing to do with radio airplay. We've seen it happen all the time, "Dog Days Are Over" by Florence & The Machine "blew up" on itunes after the MTV Awards performance and stayed in the top 10 for a week. Did radio pick it up and give it ridiculous airplay in response? No.

Rihanna has the ability to sell singles, it doesn't mean that she should be entitled to have three songs promoted on radio at once.

[SPRΞΞ]

same could be said for Taylor then. Imagine 6 Taylor songs on the radio, lol.

[kingofpain]

That would be absolutely sickening! If anything though, isn't Rihanna's label being greedy by shipping three songs to radio at once? I love Only Girl and wish it had gone to number one, unfortunately it stalled behind stronger radio hits and the sales peak never lined up. Now "What's My Name" looks poised to debut at #1 on strong sales, but it's going to hurt the longevity of Only Girl. I think in time the single could have gone to number one as the airplay is still growing and the sales are still fairly strong, but the release of "What's My Name" has pretty much destroyed any chance of that happening.

Yeah Rihanna gets her #1, but if her label hadn't been so greedy, she may have even had two of them.

But that aside, it still doesn't account for why radio PD's are choosing to promote three of her singles at once.

This.

[SPRΞΞ]

well it's not gonna "debut" at #1, but she still will get it.

[kingofpain]

I'm sorry, I didn't mean "debut", it's already in the hot 100, but yeah, it will shoot to #1 next week most likely.

[Junkiex]

Florence and the Machine is not a major act ???
