IMF: 8-9 W/ #1.

GLY: 1-2 W/ #1

BN: 1 W/ #1

Then Rihanna releases her lead single which hopefully sits atop the Hot 100 for anything between 5-10 weeks or beyond if it's a genuine smash-hit.

I heard through the grapevine that she's releasing 21/9.

HURRY UP, RIH.

That would be the best birthday present!

Hold It Against Me was the first pop song to feature a dubstep breakdown. This made it very polarising, leading to a short run. Unlike TIA, which had a short run, because the song itself is basic, and everyone only cared about the video.

The dubstep breakdown was later copied by many other songs, but dubstep in general became very common after HIAM’s success. Do you not remember 2011? The dubstep wave paved the way for trap influenced songs, which is part of the reason why the charts look the way they do currently.

That doesn't mean it INVENTED it even though the impact was real.

Even Britney herself used dubstep influences already on Blackout.

In fact, HIAM’s impact was so large, that even K-Pop started copying it.



This song is basically a rip-off of multiple songs from Femme Fatale, but the breakdown at 2:20 is clearly “inspired” by Hold It Against Me, especially since it came out a couple months later. Iirc it ended up being the first song by a solo female Korean artist to reach 100 million views.

Can you name any specific such dubstep songs that became popular in 2011? Rihanna and LMFAO are not dubstep artists, and to my knowledge did not have any dubstep-leaning hits, especially in 2011.

Even if you can name any songs, you can't definitively attribute them to HIAM, because it just wasn't a very big hit and received no special critical praise.

In My Feelings has been discounted on iTunes. Tbh I didnt think Drakes team knew how to do that.

Gods Plan/NFW could have spent an extra week or two in the top ten if they had been discounted

Um, Eminem just dropped an album out of nowhere.

Reaction on social media has me wondering if this will be the 2nd Em album to not debut at #1. Did anyone big enough to block him drop today?

Edit : just listened and I actually like it? Its  way better than revival.

[ddlz]

Maroon 5 also discounted.

Yup. As of now, Fefe, IMF, ILI and GLY are all discounted. I can see IMF doing three more weeks at #1 now.

[Choco]

Curious about Eminem. Revival was crap and the numbers reflected that, but this one has no physical so far so people will have to stream. I'm guessing a similar impact to Nicki's album.

[rfucom]

Can't believe Fefe discounted this early. They should have waited more.

Discounted now or later, Fefe is never hitting #1. Radio is too poor and it's stalled on the streaming end of things. Sales are also really low. It'll hang around the top ten for a while longer and then slowly start to drop.

I think discounts are going to even it out but radio is going to b what puts GLY on top because GLY is still gaining and IMF is falling fast.

at least drake is making Maroon work for it a bit.

Hold It Against Me a corny Pop song was polarising to the public, but This Is America -- the political message song wasn't polarising and was just 'basic'?


Okay, lmao.

With the amount of social buzz/praise and how big it's trending with zero promo, I'm thinking it'll have significant consumption for the week. He got the kids' attention by calling out their faves.  It's also getting a lot of attention in the form of backlash for his use of the F-slur again. He censored it this time, but obviously still wildly offensive to many.

Currently #1 and #20 on iTunes with 3 songs in the top 10, and it's still early morning on the west coast.

It'll be interesting to see how he does on Spotify today/this weekend - that'll give us a better idea.  Incoming album bomb?

[owenlovesmusic]

I hope Em gets another #1 album with this.

[rfucom]

Even with drake decreasing on airplay it still matching with sales of maroon 5 and has streaming advantage
I think it will be still drake then Better Now.
