According to a Billboard article this is going for Hot AC adds October 4th. I'd assume Billboard is pretty reliable.
Still have no faith in Jive doing anything right with him for airplay but if this song *is* gonna be a hit anywhere, it'll be on this format...so it's a good move if they actually plan on pushing it. Plus his album is more HAC orientated than CHR so it makes sense to try and tap into the HAC crowd.

I hope they actually plan to push this Instead of "sending it to radio" and doing nothing.
Btw, I woke up with this in my head today.

Those 6 adds above are it for this week, but I think that's pretty good for a quick send to Hot AC (since it was never listed on All Access or FMQB with an add date). Most of Hot AC's panel are auto add stations, so we'll see if any start playing it this week for the add next week.

6 adds makes it the 4th most added song on HAC this week. Nice! Is Jive actually doing something?!

^lol.
How many spins does a song need to get into the Top 40? Not very familiar with HAC stuff...
SBL also got an add on HAC this week.

I'm not too familiar with the HAC chart either. But the #50 song only has 10 stations playing it so...
