Post Malone performed a medley of “Psycho” and “Better Now” at the American Music Awards. Could the boost from the performance and the music video push “Better Now” to number one?

It could have a chance. Girls Like You vs. Lucid Dreams vs. Better Now for #1 possibly.

Even if he released the video 4-5 weeks ago, the hype on In My Feelings (and likely Girls Like You) would possibly kept it from achieving #1. Post's team made a decision too late.

So, I was thinking about this discussion we've been having on/off for weeks now about the rise of the streaming era and the decline and death of the digital/pure sales era and the differences between streaming and radio as metrics of measuring the weekly popularity of songs on the Hot 100.

I think it's funny that so many pop enthusiasts are now all of a sudden against streaming and think it needs to be somehow regulated even further than it already has this soon into it's rise into prominence. This is all because most pop stars aren't pulling in streaming figures that are comparing to the figures rappers are pulling in. I remember in the peak of the digital sales era when mostly pop stars moved the most digital/pure sale units in their songs and videos and how pop radio was even more strong than it is now and how pop stars dominated radio more than stars from any other genre. No one saw the issue with it then. I'm guessing this was because pop music was so pop-ular for so long that everyone just kinda went along with it, but now, with the rise of streaming as the primary method of music consumption, pop enthusiasts have a problem with the methodology in place. It's funny to me. Mind you, the problem isn't even that the only songs that get streamed are rap songs, it's that rap songs are getting streamed way more than pop songs/songs from other genres. I don't believe that the most successful pop stars from a few years ago have now all of a sudden lost their fanbase because loads of these pop stars announce tours and sell them out completely. It's much more costly to purchase your tickets than it is to stream songs consistently. Pop music isn't generating as many streams as rap music because pop stans have become lazy all of a sudden. I guess it was much easier to buy a song off iTunes and know you were done with it that to subscribe to a streaming service and play the songs off there instead. That's where the disconnect comes from. When more pop fans start to use streaming services, it'll even itself out. The only other way the disparity between the figures that rap music and pop music pulls on streaming sites will be closed is if the other less popular streaming platforms like pandora and Google Play Music grow in popularity and I don't see that happening - at least not to the level where it'd matter. I think the recent change Billboard effected on paid-tier and free-tier streams has helped artists from other genres. Since that happened, I've noticed that more and more albums from alternative, rock, country and even gospel genres have creeped back into the Billboard 200 while no songs off said albums made an appearance on Spotify or Apple Music charts.

I don't think pop fans need to worry themselves as much. Streaming still has a lot of room to grow and anything is possible.

My one comment to you would be the way you refer to people as "pop fans", like they're democrats to your republican in this already overly divisive world we live in.  It comes off like we all have a "side", rather than just discussing the charts and expressing feelings - a "side" that also implies pop fans don't like hip hop.  

It's not what you're saying, it's how you're saying it.  It's as if you've chosen to create this imaginary war that doesn't really exist.

I've noticed this too about this person's comments. Always wanting to divide up "you pop-fans" and "us rap-fans". It's so obvious what this person is trying to do, fuel the fire. And those condescending comments about pop fans just need to be patient, it will all work out? Please! Nobody needs advice from you if you're going to be that way. Honestly, every time I see a comment from this person, I think their username should be "the greatdivide" because they are always trying to separate two genres of music.

MARSHMELLO - Happier f/Bastille (58.341) (+1.611)

Next #1 I think.

I never thought Bastille would get another hit after almost 5 years.

Think that’s insane? Panic At The Disco might end up getting their 2nd top 20 hit over 12 years after their first.

Will any of the new tøp songs debut on nw's chart?

Probably My Blood will chart. It's doing fine at Spotify, had the video boost and stays at #48 on CHR and rising. Based on the good numbers Morph and Chlorine are pulling at Spotify I won't be surprised if they appear at Bubbling Under too. About Jumpsuit, I don't know if it would re-enter.

Speaking about My Blood, this need to be a hit. I feel that if it fails or flops at CHR, their pop careers will end. (Well, they clearly aren't caring about Pop hits but whatever)

[forg]

Happy for High Hopes rising!

Shallow is in the top 20 on Spotify now, pleasantly surprised. I wonder how high it can go on the Hot 100

Shallow possibly giving Lady Gaga a top 10 hit in 2018... that's pretty damn great. And Bradley Cooper getting a top 10?

Beyoncé just called her agent to fire him over dropping that movie :kii:

I thought Lady Gaga would not get another top 10 after a Million Reasons. I was wrong.

After what Taylor posted on Instagram and everything that's happening in politics right now, I think IDSB has a great shot at being a huge hit, even bigger than Delicate.

I'm not sure if it will make much of a difference. I know she's getting an absolutely astronomical amount of praise in the mainstream media, but that's because the mainstream media support the Democrats, so they are delighted that one of the biggest pop stars who they've feared for the past decade might be a Republican has finally come out and said she's not.

With Kanye West I was wondering if he would see a big decline/boost in his chart performance but it didn't seem to make much difference, so I don't think it will make much difference for Taylor either. And we do have borderline-pedophiles and the likes doing well in the charts, I think 90% of an artist's charts success is down to the typical things (the music itself, promotion/radio, etc.). Maybe her next single will be a hit, but that might have happened anyway like with Delicate. Maybe if it is an extreme rebound in success and it goes to #1 or #2 I might conclude that it has boosted her.

However, another thing to point out is that Nicki Minaj, Ciara, Ariana Grande, Iggy Azalea, Demi Lovato, Justin Timberlake, Katy Perry, Kelly Clarkson and a plethora of other pop stars support the Democrats (in fact, I think every single one of them does except for Kanye and maybe a few country acts), and I don't see them flying to #1 all the time.

But the difference between Taylor and all those other artists is that Taylor Swift is literally on top of all of them, in terms of success by far. For the music industry, it's her, Adele and Drake. Katy pulled so hard for Hillary during the last election and even dedicated the marketing of her record around the election, but that did jackshit for the numbers.

On the other hand Taylor posted just a simple Instagram post and immediately numbers flew up almost 200 percent, no other artist can do that.

As for Kanye, his marketability went down a lot. Fortunately for him he has the streaming audience, so he doesn't need radio and deals. If this was 2004 where radio ruled the charts, then we'd definitely see a decline in numbers.

If Lucid Dreams cannot be #1 next week, then it's likely another week at #1 for Girls Like You.
