Since the 21st century started at least, country has been selling its soul to get a bigger audience. Damn that jhomes87. Always right with her predictions. Jake Owen's 5th #1 single on Billboard Country Airplay! Just added him to the list of those artists with the most #1s!

Peaks at #1 on the Hot Country Songs as well this week, being the first song to peak concurrently on both that chart and the Airplay chart at the same time since "Every Storms Run Out Of Rain" by Gary Allan.

Just in time, too, since next week, "Dirt" will almost certainly be at #1 on Hot Country Songs. "Beachin'" had a very narrow window and it just managed to sneak through!

What's the deal with songs ending in fade? Can someone shed some light on this? Radio edits and/or production choices. better than a cold end.

Jake Owen is releasing a rap remix of "Beachin" featuring T-Pain and Mike Posnar. Will it smash on Top 40 radio? Looks like Brantley, Jake and FGL all have songs shipping out for crossover airplay.

This song doesn't even need a remix to sound suitable for Pop radio. This fad is already getting old quick, releasing a remix to Pop radio. I'm over it.

All of these remixes absolutely disgust me...they just continue to show that country is no longer a distinct genre, it's just another "anything goes" mainstream genre that's basically compatible with Pop radio.

The last thing this format needs is rap artists; it's totally pointless, and I really can't believe that they're copying the mistakes which top 40 radio started making in the late eighties by alienating your core audience by deliberately playing music which has no business on any country staion out there.
Country radio absolutely BLEW UP popularity-wise in the late eighties not only due to programming mistakes by the truckload @ top 40 radio, but an onslaught of superb new artists in 1989 led by Clint Black, Garth Brooks and Lorrie Morgan, Billboard's top three new singles artists of that groundbreaking year.

WOW, now this surprises me, not even a single but it sneaks onto the Mediabase Top 50 as of this evening, yes this is now the NEW updated chart and all recurrents have been sent bye bye.
51 49 Up this week JAKE OWEN Summer Jam 334 294 40 3.234

KEEY in Minneapolis has been spinning this song relentlessly over the past two years. That station has spun "Summer Jam" 64 times over the past two weeks alone and I know there's a few others who have contributed to this song cracking the MB top 50 as well.

Is "Summer Jam" a song that features FGL with Jake? Yep. Though FGL only sings one verse (the bridge) towards the end of the song.

Thanks, I removed my former post due to me remembering it was the one that has them on it. I have the album Days Of Gold Target Deluxe and it's on there as one of the bonus tracks. Just weird seeing a 2012 song finally cracking a Mid Summer 2014 Mediabase chart. Do you think it will chart for Billboard again?

Do you think it will chart for Billboard again? I guess Billboard is not allowing it to chart because it definitely should have enough audience to chart on Billboard's top 60. It did reach #50 on Billboard before. There's still a month or so to go here, so who knows if it can get higher than #49 on MB and chart on Billboard, though I'm sure there's a reason why it hasn't appeared thus far in 2014. jhomes87 would be handy right now...

www.country925.com/media/play/beachin-remix-25074975/Here is the audio of this trainwreck. It's just getting sad and copycat at this point. Everyone wants to be FL-GA line and it's getting pathetic and desperate. What's next? Nikki Minaj and Hunter Hayes remix "Tattoo"?

Everyone wants to be FL-GA line and it's getting pathetic and desperate. What's next? Nikki Minaj and Hunter Hayes remix "Tattoo"? this is absolutely awful ... hopefully after the FGL/Jason Derulo bomb, now this and the Brantley Gilbert remix that will bomb - then that will be the end of it. No more rap remixes. Love it or hate it, Cruise was a perfect song for a remix and Nelly did a great job on the remix - thats why it went top 10 on the pop chart. These other songs should have never been remixed.

Another wretched mess; trainwreck is too kind of a word to describe this garbage.

It charted on Billboard 2 years ago and went recurrent so they won't re-enter it. There are a bunch of other songs that would have enough airplay to be top 60 as well but since they are also recurrent on Mediabase (in addition to BB) we can't guesstimate how much audience they'd have on BB like we can with "Summer Jam" unless we could see a list of Power Golds and the audience they're receiving. Basically the Christmas song rule applies to "Summer Jam"...Christmas songs can only chart one year (the year they are released) and that's seemingly the situation with "Summer Jam" as well.
