Is Thunder really going for that 3rd straight week as Airplay gainer? This is breaking in and shaping up to be their biggest hit on radio yet. I hope so, at least.

Uh, this is actually fewer than normal. Two of them are even the same damn dead song.

Also, obligatory nothing is wrong with discounts comment.

[rimetm]

FTR, I stop listing certain songs if they have no chart prospects even if they're still on discount. Versace on the Floor will probably stop being listed next week if it doesn't bullet on Hot R&B/Hiphop. Meanwhile, if Boy and Relationship keep up their momentum, I'll start listing their ongoing discounts on the OP.

Lol all I’m saying is that I don’t like how many discounts happen. I NEVER said that this is more than normal. That’s totally fine if you are ok with discounts, however, I don’t really like them because they sort of artificially boost a song’s position.

As artificial as a performance? As artificial as a radio tour? As artificial as an album release?

You can't force people to buy a song even if it's discounted.

I love discounts because I don't like paying more for a song than I have to.  Discounts are good for the consumer.  Could care less about song position

Praying is doing well on airplay, a decent comeback for Kesha

Once Havana gets a video I can see this song shooting it's way to the top 5.

What's the deal with Perfect being stationary?

That would be amazing endurance, to reach top 10 after 11 weeks of floating between 20 and 12, long after its promo ran out and over a week after he released video for another song. Now I want this to happen even though the song's pretty mediocre.

Same, except I outright detest Bank Account so I'm kind of rooting against that happening haha. Still would be cool for the cake or chart following though.

I don't want Camila to succeed at all. She really screwed 5H over by leaving (not that I'm a big 5H fan either), and it was also a stupid move, right after they got their first top ten hit and were becoming really huge. Like, who does that, a group that starts to become established right after their second album and then the lead singer suddenly leaves? ....Ooops, there was the Spice Girls, and we all know how that turned out...

Today's update was merciless to Taylor :o

[Baby Yoda Hot100Fan]

^Yeah, Look What You Made Me Do will probably fall out of the top 10 of the Hot 100 within a couple of weeks as a consequence. Sorry Not Sorry should reach the top 10 of radio in a couple of days. It does seem that Thunder, Havana and Rockstar are coming on radio. BTW, today's 10 radio update looks relatively bad overall.

[badrobot]

Oy, that Taylor update makes it pretty obvious how manipulated airplay is — the label clearly stopped paying up yesterday.

Hard to believe Payola was a major scandal back in the day and is now considered completely normal business.

That's because back in the day it was with actual money, which is illegal now. Now they've found totally legal ways around it, such as offering concert tickets, albums, merchandise, first dibs on information, etc.

Oh, and the first day/weekend deals which does deal with money, but is legal? I'm not sure how that gets a pass, but I'm not gonna pretend to know laws, lol.

Well, it's going to suck to be you, because she's right on the cusp of breaking through.


Perfect and Havana look to be the next big hits. Perfect will have airplay and sales, while Havana will likely have streaming. It'll be interesting to see which one ends up on top.

I'll go with Perfect.

[deepston]

It would be amazing if Camilla could actually collect a #1 with Havana. This song is streaming and selling really well already without a video and radio is quickly catching up.
Also, when I first heard the song I thought it had a summer vibe but now it sounds like lazy summer which somehow kinda works with autumn

It depends on when it's gonna start slowing down on the radio. If the updates stays consistent like that until the release of the music video, it would be easy, but if it slows down it would be unlikely for it to go top 5.

It was obvious because it was getting negative audience and all of a sudden it got back to more spins and +2M audience daily. And it wasn't a rolling effect for sure since the updates were already not that big. 

[Deleted]

Not Taylor dropping 5.5M on airplay.

This is one of the biggest falls on overall AI since... what, Die Young?
