As of now, “Drunk (And I Don’t Wanna Go Home)” is about to be a Top 20 hit at US Hot AC Radio. And it’s #15 on the US iTunes Single Sales Chart. So it’s very understandable that RCA Records is waiting until mid-June to impact the song on US Pop Radio.

It went to #1 on iTunes as soon as it was released. It has already been given a music video and a live TV performance, which sent it back to #1 on iTunes and is essentially why it's still is where it is. Waiting for a holiday or for it to go top 20 on a small format really aren't good reasons to hold it back when they already had multiple opportunities to use this song's stroke of good luck and virality to propel it onto different formats and set it up to be a hit.
Hell, it's only going to country in mid-June, not even here. There still isn't any word for here. And country is slow as molasses unless your name is Luke Combs. If this does manage to be a hit there, it may not even reach the top 10 until over a half a year after its initial performance on a country music awards show.
You guys can try to spin these into positives all you want, but all I'm seeing here is a label not knowing what to do with a song that is clearly screaming to be a hit. They're lost. Like why give it a big televised performance if you aren't going to use that as a means to propel its success. The iTunes performance too is just spoon feeding them opportunities to drum up buzz in the industry. And they've just sat on it. It's really frustrating. I still think this is destined to smash even with the label fumbling around with it, but damn I want this everywhere this summer, not winter.

Glad to hear this, but is there a reason why the label won't send this to Country radio? I don't believe Elle King is on a country label so they'd have to link up with one or find an independent radio promo team out of Nashville to promote it to that format. They also might have held off on it because Miranda Lambert has her own charting hit at radio right now. I think they should work things out to properly push it to country radio following the ACMs performance though, and I wouldn't be surprised if that happens given that they're opening the whole show with it, which is going to be hype. And here we have it: www.allaccess.com/net-news/archive/story/207565/elle-king-joins-rca-records-and-sony-music-nashvil

I can get why the country impact was delayed (Miranda working another single there, Elle only now joining Sony Nashville, apparently). But there's no excuse for why this song didn't go to pop immediately after the initial reception or at least after the ACMs

Almost top 15 on Hot AC! I think she got a couple of hits over there besides Ex's & Oh's but now she could escape 1 hit wonder status on Pop!

I was SHOCKED to see it enter the other day. The fact that it's held up this whole time without an adds date or any tangible pop push...
I was even more shocked to see it at #179 on Apple Music US. This is insane for a country pop song that came out months ago.
This song is such a hit. They should do a quick little discount to bump it up on the chart and use that boost for a braggy AllAccess banner and a pop impact date.

Come on pop radio! This song deserves to smash on every radio format. So glad such a massive song is doing so well, especially for Elle, who does NOT deserve one-hit wonder status.

Waiting to see some new pop stations in the starters section. Already got one pop add this week upon entering the chart.
It'd also be cool if this showed up on Cool New Music next week (like it should have 4 months ago) although I'm not sure if that actually helps a lot

I didn't know that Elle's dad is an anti-vaccine activist who claims vaccines cause autism
and also
"Rob Schneider Unwilling to Take COVID-19 Vaccine, Is Willing to Shoot People - Schneider called the COVID-19 vaccines "unapproved experimental gene therapy" and used the hashtag #2ndAmendmentIsForThis" 💀✋, ugh, Elle deserves better than to be associated with that mess. Love her voice

Thankfully snuck back in at #47 after recurrents. Hope this prompts more stations to add it and play it.
Is the label really not gonna do anything to push it to pop while it's charting for a second Sunday?

The fact that this is being pushed by RCA explains a lot. That label can’t push a song on multiple formats to save their lives (see also: Doja Cat’s less “pop” singles such as Streets not doing as well on radio).

This is barely an excuse either cause RCA isn't even behind the country push. That's handled by Sony Nashville. RCA is only responsible for HAC. No idea what they're waiting for to proceed on pop

Hope they start playing it asap. I want this to cling onto the top 50 for the published update and to get its bullet back so that more stations will give it a chance. But it won't be easy.
