The fact that the 2 smash hits i said can easy stomp on all these songs combined. They’re even in the all time list lool

And the fact that circles is #20 and sunflower is only #26 on spotify after a whole year and a half says it all

[starlord]

The thing that baffles me the most that the sunflower has sold 9 million units ONLY after 85 weeks. And on the other hand The Box sold 6 million only in 6 months. Sunflower never really left Top 50 on Spotify and Top 100 in AM. Longevity played a huge part there and never really had a big peak. Looking forward to the deserving Diamond for SF.

the way Posty basically has a 6-song permanent residency on the US TOP200

[higilo]

Lucid Dreams hasn't left the US Spotify Weekly Top 100 since it entered the region in the week of 2018-05-10.
Whilst its true it had a resurgence following Juice WRLD's death, its still at #42 on the weekly chart 24 weeks later.

So Republic Records will no longer using the term 'urban' to refer to hip-hop and r & b. Does this mean that eventually some of the Billboard genre charts will change their names as they have in the past?

Republic Records Bans the Term 'Urban' Within Label: 'We Encourage the Music Industry to Follow Suit'

[dremolus - solarpunk]

Has black music usually been categorized as 'urban' or did it just happen to hip-hop and R&B? What's the history behind it?

[korbel16]

They label shit r&b and hip hop all the time for black artists when the song is obviously pop. A lot of Beyoncé’s/ Drake’s songs for example. Oh and truth hurts too.. pop. Goes for the Grammy categories too..

[Enigma.]

It's a two-way street: if a black artist does pop, it's "urban" or "r&b" (like The Weeknd or Lizzo's hit singles), if a white artist does whatever music, it's always pop.

“I hate when people say, ‘Oh, you look like “blank”. You sound like “blank”.’ It was such a cool thing Tyler said. I agree with him about that term. Don’t judge an artist off the way someone looks or the way someone dresses. Wasn’t Lizzo in the Best R&B category that night? I mean, she’s more pop than I am.

“Look, if I wasn’t white I would probably be in ‘rap’. Why? They just judge from what you look like and what they know. I think that is weird. The world wants to put you into a box; I’ve had it my whole career. Just because I am a white teenage female I am pop. Where am I pop? What part of my music sounds like pop?

Most importantly, the Grammys should get rid of all their Urban categories.

Not always. White artists also have the privilege of having their music being called rock, alternative, electronic and whatever other genre of music they actually make. Black artists are the ones who get called urban regardless of what genre of music they make.

White rappers never get called pop stars. Post Malone makes hip-hop-adjacent music at best and the rap world was quick to embrace him.

Billie's quote isn't entirely true. If she had any songs where she actually rapped or used a rap-cadence, she would have been called a rap artist. Billie makes indie pop/electropop music, but it still falls under the pop umbrella.

[ddlz]

Billie is not entirely wrong, but...

Look, if I wasn’t white I would probably be in ‘rap

...she definitely needs some PR training.

Has black music usually been categorized as 'urban' or did it just happen to hip-hop and R&B? What's the history behind it?

The term “Urban Music” was coined by New York radio DJ Frankie Crocker in 1974 as a synonym for “Black Music”, as the majority of successful Black radio stations were based in “Urban” neighbourhoods and not in the city districts like most White radio stations. Most Black radio DJ’s didn’t want to be based in the city as they felt that remaining in their local areas would be more authentic and representative of the communities as a whole.

‘Urban Contemporary’ radio stations would curate playlists made up entirely of solely Black-oriented music genres such as ‘R&B, Soul, Funk, Quiet Storm, Jazz, Soul-Jazz’ and Afro-Caribbean genres such as ‘Reggae, Dancehall, Dub & Ska’. Seldom did they play music by White artists unless they were R&B/Soul acts too. For example, David Bowie’s “FAME” was one of the top three most played records on Black radio in 1975 despite only peaking at #21 on the Soul charts. Average White Band/Hall & Oates/Bee Gees were relative staples on Black radio at the time too.

Also, whereas there were a plethora of crossover ‘R&B/Soul’ hits by R&B/Soul acts on the ‘Pop’ charts at the time, U.S radio was still largely segregated. Per Billboard, the R&B charts at the time were referred to as the:

“Hot Soul Singles/Albums Charts”.

When the Chicago/Philadelphia-oriented Soul/Funk Music, that dominated the ‘70’s, grew out of popularity by the early ‘80’s and Contemporary R&B/Hip-Hop became a mainstay, Billboard thought it’d be wise to change the name of the ‘Soul’ charts to the:

“Hot Black Singles/Album Charts”.

This lasted from 1981-1990.

Since then it’s mostly been referred to as the R&B/Hip-Hop charts.

[jamatthews83]

Maddie and Tae in the Top 200 of Spotify. I was hoping that would happen with them finally being added to the main country playlist. The little song that could.

Who would have predicted Maddie & Tae and Carly Pearce in the Top 200 of Spotify together 12 months ago?

[shaz196]

The fact that "thank u, next" is labeled "Pop" on AM but "After Hours" is labeled "R&B/Soul" is very interesting.

So... this week should be even weaker than last week.

Songs with 80M+ airplay = 0
