After reading through this thread I guess soccer MoM's rule the world. LoL That's who's still listening to Justin Bieber's new song with the country band and Maroon 5's new one and may get into the "latest" Tik TOK dance which is ancient to a teen now.... I feel like "Old Town Road" is probably still making a few of them feel cool too... "Top 40 Radio Has a Rap Problem
Kendrick Lamar, Cardi B and Migos make the most popular records in the country, so why aren’t they thriving on pop stations the way white rappers do?
(...)
The modern system of radio formats dates back to the late 1970s and early 1980s, according to Eric Weisbard, an associate professor at the University of Alabama and the author of Top 40 Democracy: The Rival Mainstreams of American Music. As radio listening started to migrate from AM to FM, “instead of just having one Top 40 format for all the hits, you started to have several formats representing different kinds of audiences that radio stations wanted to target,” he explains. “Radio is deceptive,” he adds. “It’s not selling music to listeners, it’s selling listeners to advertisers.”
In the case of Top 40, radio is marketing a very specific niche to those advertisers. “What a programmer of a Top 40 radio station imagines is that the ideal listener is a mom in a car with her daughter,” Weisbard says. “That’s a stereotype in the industry."
