This grew on me after a couple listens. Playboi Carti mumbles is still annoying though.

It's a shame the last album didn't do so well because it's pretty good, as is about half of the first. This is so clearly a forced, 'managed' pivot.

Yeah I’m sorry but this eats lmao. I hope it’s a hit!.
ETA. Only thing I hate is how abruptly it ends. Hate when songs do that.

Phew, talk about a pivot in sound! It’s a little chaotic for me, but it’s quite good. I still find the chorus grating, but it’s not as bad as I thought it would be. Literally no idea what PC even says.
I don’t see this smashing tbh, but it’s good enough to make me interested in the era. I would consider that a win.

So what is going on with radio? I assume this will go for Pop adds and Rhythmic adds.

Playboi Carti mumbles is still annoying though. He's arguably the top rapper in the world right now Yeah I can understand why one would arguably think that (if you exclude Drake, Cardi B, Travis Scott, 21 Savage, Doja Cat, Kanye West, Nicki Minaj, The Weeknd, Kendrick Lamar, Bryson Tiller, J. Cole, Post Malone, Tyler the Creator, Flo Milli, Lil Baby, Chris Brown, Gunna, Ty Dolla Sign and Glorilla, all of whom chart this week on the Artist 100 while Carti doesn't even appear).

Would be criminal if I didn’t add Metro Boomin and Future to this 😅🫣

Her career is giving Xtina with all the drastic rebrands and lack of artistic continuity. Faux indie 2017-era hyperpop? Making herself over as a Euphoria teen, years after the series' peak? Camila...?

Can't say I like it, but it's not the total train wreck I was picturing either. I feel like her voice on this is probably the least annoying I've heard it, despite the repeated "i luv it"s

I didn't say he was I said arguably. Maybe I should have clarified it more and said he's one of the top male rappers.

I don't like this. It just doesn't fit her at all. The "ILuvitILuvitILuvit" part is outrageous.

This is just...bizarre. Even though I don't understand the point of the video, I like it. It kinda reminds me of Spring Breakers, which, coincidentally (?) had a Gucci Mane cameo. This is really different for her but the song is so damn catchy. The I Luv It verse gets stuck in your head and so does the Gucci Mane sample part. I love the end of the song after she says Slow Down Baby and of course the Carti rap verse. You love the Carti verse?? Do you even know what he is saying? I don't even think he is saying words. Then again, neither is Camilla so...I guess she figures she already has enunciation issues and a major cause of the slurs, so she just doubled down completely?? He's arguably the top rapper in the world right now Yeah I can understand why one would arguably think that (if you exclude Drake, Cardi B, Travis Scott, 21 Savage, Doja Cat, Kanye West, Nicki Minaj, The Weeknd, Kendrick Lamar, Bryson Tiller, J. Cole, Post Malone, Tyler the Creator, Flo Milli, Lil Baby, Chris Brown, Gunna, Ty Dolla Sign and Glorilla, all of whom chart this week on the Artist 100 while Carti doesn't even appear). Yeah, I was gonna say...I can't name a single song of his, so how is he the top rapper in the world??

Just remember people, since this song was released at 12pm, don't expect good Spotify #s when the new #s come out early Thursday morning, it only had 7 hours of Spotify tracking time. We will get normal full day Spotify #s Friday morning.

I used to think the same, but he has a very dedicated fanbase who will support anything he releases. For a relatively 'local' rapper, his Spotify streams are quite brilliant with a great per track average, and his engagement with the incels is great (i.e. check out his subreddit with nearly 600,000 members). I saw someone call him the Lana del Rey of the rap world, and I kind of agree with that statement. Saying he is the top rapper in the world is obviously an overstatement, but he is definitely big right now.

Possibly the second worst song I’ve ever heard (ahead of Mo Bamba). It’s just so awful. It goes nowhere and it has annoying instrumental. The “I love it” section somehow isn’t even the worst part, the part after it is! I can’t understand a word from Playboi Carti, and then the song just ends lmao. The whole song is atrocious, and sounds so fake from her. Who approved this? I think they’re going for viral shock to get this to peak high (granted, that’s potentially ruined by the Wednesday release). So, so bad
How does she go from songs like La Buena Vida to this?

I kind of like this, but I’m a Camila fan. I thought I was going to be fully disappointed, but the full song is better than the snippets in my opinion. Though I don’t like how it ends. They should have added something after Carti’s verse.

I like the vibe of the video, and the song is really fine, but that 'I Luv It' part is just awful. I thought Charli wrote the song & Camila just left her vocals in the chorus (a la J.Lo) but nope. Anyways, unlike Charli's "songs", at least this chorus is listenable.

This is a hot mess, but also a bop at the same time.

There are parts of this I love and parts of it I find completely unlistenable. So, not sure where that leaves me. Hoping for a remix? lol

Which is equivalent to 4.8 million if it was a full 24 hours which would have placed it top 5 on Global Spotify.

DGY premiered with 2 million I think, so honestly that's pretty good for a partial day.

Good for her! Thats a great partial day debut - especially for a Wednesday with no playlisting yet. I expect Beyonce to take all the top spots tomorrow for New Music Friday and Todays Top Hits (etc etc etc), but hopefully this gets some additional curiosity spins. I think it will be very telling though to see where this is at in 3-5 days from now. I've spun it about 5 times now -- and its less offensive than I expected, but its not really anything I have been itching to return to.
As somebody else just mentioned, I would be curious to see good remixes of this though.

I thought it would get 800,000 to 1.2 million on the first day. 1.68 million was more than I was expecting. I'm hoping the song gets at least 4.5 million in tomorrow morning's update which will reflect its first full day.

It's grown on me since the leak (preferred it solo tbh) but it still sounds like two songs are playing at once for me lol This is actually my favorite thing about it I think. In isolation I didn't like the snippet, but it works as part of a song that really swings around. I wish some of the flourishes that come up during Carti's verse came in earlier too. I do like his verse, but the only things I can make out are "bitch n***a" and "I'm outta controoooool".

I Luv It will probably be placed in the top 5 on Today's Top hits.
