Does anyone know if No Time to Die is being serviced on radio? Also, we should expect a music video, right?

I'm expecting a video, but not a radio push. They're still focused on getting "everything i wanted" as high as possible.

Rooting for Death Bed. It's about time bedroom pop finally impacted the Hot 100 though I'm surprised it's not from the bigger acts like Clairo, Rex Orange County, beabadobee, Cuco or even mxmtoon.

Isn't beabadobee on death bed?

I meant from one of her own songs like If You Want It or She Plays Bass

Considering it’s a sample and not a feature, technically one of her songs is breaking big

I'll admit, the song has grown on me a little - I see the appeal now - but I still think the instrumental and production isn't as chaotic or wild as the noisy hip-hop I like. Not to mention, the blatant homophobic slur towards James Charles certainly isn't helping it feel less immature.

I just watched a Genius lyrics video where he talks about the James Charles lyric and he explains himself. The lyrics say "fake like James Charles"

Ehh, I'm still wary on that. When you censor a word starting with f right before mentioning one of the most viral gay men right now, I highly doubt most people are gonna think he said "fake". Reminds me of Eminem censoring Fall: if you have to censor a word not for radio, just change the line.

And i'm not saying he's homophobic or transphobic; watching the interview he really does seem like he's actually a nice, friendly guy. But I think he should've thought about the possible implications of a line like that.

It's so weird to see Taylor promote a single like what's she doing for The Man. I can actually see it doing super well, like an organic hit kinda. It's a nice refresher from how most pop stars do an extreme frontload of hype for like a week and then release.

Then it wouldn't be censored in the actual song

Does No Time To Die have a secure spot at #2? Doubt it'll dethrone The Box. Happy for her first #1 in the UK though.

I guess the video with an alien shooting someone’s brains out was too weird for the billboard charts.

They prob did that to be GP(or TikTok girls)-friendly. Ive seen a lot of comments in the original video complaining about it being too harsh (prob the tiktok girls too). 

I immediately closed the video after Matt and Ryan did the tiktok dance

Lizzo and her team are really pushing Cuz I Love You as a new single.

You can censor normal words, yknow. He probably said fake like James Charles and thought “wouldn’t it be funny if I censored it so it sounded like the other word”

But the implication is still there. If it's bad when Eminem called Tyler, the Creator the F-word while being censored, then it's also bad when GOODMORNINGTOKYO! does the same to James Charles.

Death Bed is in the top 100 on Amazon Music. Locked out of Apple Music where Bieber and A Boogie still linger

That was different because Eminem meant to say it. Goodmorningtokyo does it to just a similar sounding word. It's like those youtube videos where they bleep random verbs to make it sound like Drake and Josh are swearing

Yeah but at least with those videos, you know from the get go that's not they're actually but with Goodmorningtokyo!, if he didn't outright say he said fake, I would've thought he a slur. 

Like, it'd be if someone censored the word 'nobody' in a verse but you could still hear the n-sound. They can explain all the want but they shouldn't be surprised if people think they said the n-word at first.

Memories losing 1M radio audiences for the last two updates. Love to see it.

[waluigionascooter]

Honest question, do you guys think once After Hours drops, Blinding Lights could have a shot at #1?
Because that would be awesome

[lazer]

Blueberry Faygo could be Lil Moseys first top ten hit. It’s one of the best song Lil Mosey made since Noticed.

I honestly hope it does. I just want it to peak high like at #1 or 2 and have a stable chart run

[annoymous1]

Hahaha Hot Girl Bummer is finally Top 10 on radio. Yes memories is starting to lose traction on radio at a faster rate than Circles.

Is Billie going Top 10?

#1 on Sales, top 5 on streaming... it's doable I think. It's not going for radio play, at least yet.

she never has a good start w/ radio for some reason

That's questionable.

It's going to be the sales #1, but likely with less than 25,000, so that doesn't contribute much.

While it is very high up on Spotify, it's not doing that well on other on-demand platforms. It will need to pull off a high YouTube number as well as a radio push by the end of this week in order to have a good chance at the top 10.

It's growing very slowly but it is constantly growing. I think once it gets to the top 5 Life Is Good or The Box will be weaker, so it'll peak high even if it has to bow the #1 spot.

This sounds incredible but please Mr Weeknd do not cannibalize Blinding Lights’s momentum
