Hang in there girl!
Has she done any new promo this week or upcoming? She did a lot when it first dropped, but now it needs some help.

Considering how Meghan Trainor is (and has been for some time) the go to “I hate..” artist, and also how basic and poppy this is in a music environment where God’s Plan (“bad things.. they wishing and wishing and wishing”x10) and other useless rap songs are huge, this did extremely well in my eyes. It even gained in points (and went up on the Hot 100) this week, weeks after release. I kind of expected this to be dead by week two

It didnt do great, but it did well enough to show there is still a market for Meghan. The next single has to connect though or they may push the album out indefinitely.

Again. This song didn't get above #200 on Spotify in its first week. For an artist that has came out within the past five years, that's awful. This isn't even that much about genre when you do that badly (unable to break 200k streams a day).

Hang in there girl! Has she done any new promo this week or upcoming? She did a lot when it first dropped, but now it needs some help. In terms of TV promo, she's done about as much as anyone's realistically going to do for one song (Fallon, Ellen, TODAY Show). And due to the audience skew of most talk shows, it's unlikely another TV performance would help her where she needs it: on the streaming front. They've tried some other tactics to boost streaming (a Spotify partnership with Queer Eye For The Straight Guy, the dance video, etc), but it just doesn't seem to be making a difference. Hot AC-leaning pop struggles with streaming as it is, and she's had a particularly tough go in that realm.

This is still top 20 on iTunes despite new releases. It's impressive tbh.

I remember an interview of hers where she went on about how she "shits hits" cause it's just so easy for her.... poor thing didn't realize how fast she'd fall.
From everything I've read/heard from her she seems obsessed with success and I honestly think she's a bit too transparent regarding her thirst. All pop stars are trying to get hits but you gotta play the game and try to make it seem like you're in it for the "art". Her first album having the doo-wop sound and AATB being a body-positivity anthem was perfect for that, but her followup and this just seem pointless.

This song just isn't that good, period. Try better next time Meghan because this was a lousy comeback single.

I honestly don't know how I feel about this right now. Every time it comes up, listening or skipping just depends on my mood.

"Because they come out so quick I can't even keep up with myself."So I was thinking this was gonna be a "taken out of context" type of comment where she was joking around and it just didn't come across as intended...but no, she actually said that without even a hint of irony. Welp.
