Average. On the other hand, “Whole Lotta Choppas” might be the best thing ever.

Absolutely, hands down OBSESSED WITH THIS SONG. I knew the original but honestly this has such a refreshing vibe. this got him signed to a label, so I hope they push it as a single.

This picked up two Alt adds and neither of them were Alt Nation (KQBL-F3 and KUCD).

I’d rather not have another viral TikTok hit on this format unless it actually belongs, thanks.

What an awful band name. Can’t wait for the new songs from Gulsi Tabbard, Pand Raul, Pancy Nelosi and Don ReSantis.
Also, this song blows.

This isn't that bad, but it's not alt and the autotune is useless. Of course that means it will be a hit because Kaplan.

I love how I've been seeing nonstop bashing over Mike Kaplan and how he is "ruining the Alt charts", and not for the fact that he put hundreds of people out of jobs. Never change Pulse.

It's actually Entercom's fault in both cases, in that they fired many DJs AND put Kaplan in charge of managing the Entercom alt stations. I believe macattack was also upset about people losing their jobs, as am I. It's just our self-centeredness that put our focus on his impact on the charts rather than the Entercom job firings. |

I don’t really know what went down with Kaplan. Can you elaborate? Start reading from here onwards: pulsemusic.proboards.com/post/7615928/threadSongs such as Ashe's Save Myself have been badly impacted by the changes, while the pop alt stuff played by Entercom's stations such as 24kGoldn and Juice WRLD all got big gains. |

what is this crap? Ritt Momney? Does TikTok also have some APP that picks out random letters so you can come up with a band name? LOL! I put on many records ,and thankfully none sound like this travesty.

I believe macattack was also upset about people losing their jobs, as am I. It's just our self-centeredness that put our focus on his impact on the charts rather than the Entercom job firings. I admit that most of my venting over the jobs being lost was on Discord servers and DMs, and not out on Pulse like this. But what happened to the Entercom staff that was let go is horrific and life-changing, and their jobs are most likely never coming back. Not to mention that giving one man control of what amounts to 20% of the panel greatly impacts artists that this individual does not approve of. There are a lot of people being negatively affected, and for what? Chasing TikTok one-hit wonders who generally provide only noise or bizarre ambiance? I don't see how that saves radio, or helps the Alternative format. It just puts the format in a state of perpetually playing catch-up. Anyway, this cover is bad. It's boring and the bizarre filters and modulation make it vaguely bad instead of just background noise. I don't like this at all, and I dread that this is going to blow up in a big way. |

At least this iin't a cover of Hinder's "Put That Record On" that would have really pissed me off.  |

Oh, I definitely chewed Entercom out over the job losses as well, if you look in the General Rock Discussion thread. Entercom is garbage in general, corporate radio at its absolute worst. The job losses, the nationalization of programming, and Kaplan's butchering of the format are all symptoms of that. It's spread to other formats as well, including Country as mentioned, and even the top-performing AC and Classic Hits stations in (for instance) Philadelphia have seen cuts that both put people out of work and negatively affected the on-air product. |

Ugh, what an awful band name. The cover's really nothing special compared to the original.
Over/under on how long it's going to take for Jimmy Fallon to have this kid on the same show as Romney just to make a dumb, obvious joke?

The new RADIO.COM Pick of the Week. As a few Alts are already playing this like Clairo I expect a similar peak at the end of the week.

this just makes me yearn to hear more from Corinne Bailey Rae...she has such a sweet soulful voice!
whereas this guy gets the full auto-tune treatment & still sounds like crap...this needs to go away
