None of the kids talking with Taylor on the cams looked very excited. I thought that was funny the first time I saw it. lol, I'll just copy my last first post Kyon.

Your faves have been put on notice. Don't bother brushing your wigs because they have already been snatched.

Charts are being topped.

Records are being shattered.

TAYLOR SWIFT - We Are Never Ever Getting...: 50.114 (+ 44.164)

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!

Taylor SHITTED on GaGa's record and THEN SOME. It also shattered Mariah's record of a 30M update for We Belong Together.

Your faves WILL NEVER. I can assure you.

Gurls dont be PRESSED because Savior Swift is slaying. Be PRESSED because your fave cant do it.

Thats is all. Please resume being miserable for the entirety of the RED campaign.
 
Well, the AI (audience impressions) has been adjusted since Lady Gaga's update, so it's larger than before. In addition, Taylor also has a radio deal. She also has a larger format appeal than Gaga, as she has country radio behind her.

In summary, this circus of fireworks and feigned surprise won't translate into sustained chart longevity tbh

Gaga didn't have a radio deal for Born This Way? I feel like that's most impressive part of this whole thing...

She did have a radio deal. All these people debuting over 10AI had a radio deal.

The thing is Taylor has top 40 appeal, Adult Contemporary appeal and Country appeal. She has more formats behind her.

I see...but these things don't work all the time do they? Gimme All Your Luvin, You Da One, etc. I think Taylor will be alright though judging by her sales

We will have to see. I think she'll be fine but youre right it could be another Gimme all your flopin'. At least Rihanna had We Found Love smashing when You Da One flopped tho

Britney didnt have Payola for Hold It Against Me tho.

She sold the exclusivity to Z100 on the east coast and to KISS FM on the west coast.

If I've been understanding radio deals correctly (essentially "paying" radio stations to prioritize your music), then I think it's one of the shadiest things about the music industry these days.

Although I'm probably wrong about exactly how it works. Thoughts, ITZ? Seeing as you're officially the resident Maven of Radio around these parts.

Yeah, it happens everywhere too. I still get slightly angry when I think about the raw deal that broadcasters gave Alexandra Burke after she bought herself out of her contract with Simon Cowell and then her subsequently being dropped by RCA.

Vicious industry :-{

yeah, its why I hope radio loses some of its percentage in the Billboard Hot 100 to streaming in the near future.
 
Eaux, KISS FM in LA is shady. Ever since Kelly Clarkson publicly criticized Clive Davis 5 years ago they refuse to play any of her songs unless the song becomes too massive to deny (My Life Would Suck Without You, Stronger). It wouldn't be too big a deal if it wasn't the second biggest radio station in the US.

Luckily Z100 seems to worship the ground underneath Kelly's feet so that makes up for it...sort of.

@ladygaga

I wrote "PARTYNAUSEOUS" about Jakarta, and my relationship with that country. Wishing I could "get high with the enemy" and make peace.

Aww,

Once @kendricklamar + I started talking about life + his forward thinking views about love + hip hop, the song became something more.

Well its not really shady. KISS is TOP 40 so they basically will play the songs that are popular in the USA.

Although there does seem to be a certain "blacklist" of artists there. I remember the reason they didnt play Moves Like Jagger until it was undeniable was because it featured Xtina. Apparently she pulled a Minaj (cancelling at the last minute) with a KISS FM festival once and they blacklisted her.

I think they're cool now tho as major radio programmers are hyping up "Your Body".

I dunno gerls, it seems like T-Swift must be paying more than just the radio to get you all to stan her basic tunes.

Really???

I haven't heard anything. Then again, I rarely listen to the radio these days. Usually only when I'm in the car and forgot my ipod...AND don't feel like draining my phone battery streaming spotify.

Poor, brave radio.

Either way the itunes charts dont lie. The Taylor Swift song is INCREDIBLY POPULAR. Even if she didnt have radio behind her, she'd still debut TOP 5.

Flo Rida's 'Whistle' Works Way to Top of Hot 100


Flo Rida's "Whistle" takes over atop the Billboard Hot 100, pushing Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe" off the summit after nine weeks. Ellie Goulding's "Lights," meanwhile, crowns the Radio Songs chart, fun. becomes the first rock band in more than five years to send its first two Hot 100 hits into the top 10 and Mumford & Sons and Taylor Swift each debut with lead singles from new albums.



"Whistle" sounds at No. 1 on the Hot 100 (rising from No. 3), fueled by a 2-1 rebound for a third week atop Digital Songs (217,000 downloads sold, down 2%, according to Nielsen SoundScan). The track remains bulleted at No. 12 on Radio Songs (66 million audience impressions, up 11%, according to Nielsen BDS) and No. 3 on On-Demand Songs (749,000 on-demand streams, up 9%, according to BDS).

I told ya'll Flo Rida would get that #1. Baboons better not doubt me next time.

Im talking to you, inferior Chris

Is iHeartRadio just KISS rebranded?

Yup, basically. Although KISS still has that Jingle Bell festival.

The #1 spot has been poluted with so much filth lately.
Call Me Maybe has been #1 for weeks. Wide Awake was almost #1. Flo Rida will probably be #1. And Taylor will eventually be #1.

What is happening. Definitely not liking this trend.

Sales-age needs to accept that quality does not always rise to the top and that CRJ is clearly a pop queen.
