Yes but it's not her most radio-friendly song tongue.gif And a top 40 debut would be a much better start for this. I'm surprised Radio 1 didn't insta-add it to their playlist but it was Annie's Hottest Record on Wednesday so I'm sure it'll be there within a couple of weeks.

Still #3 on Dutch iTunes (don't understand how) and went from #142 to #69 on Spotify on its second day. A hit!

It’s not a song that’ll really do well on iTunes long term so I’d just reduce it to 59p there to keep it in the top 40. #45 on Spotify without much support is obvs really good so I do think it can be a big hit!

Her rap in this is incredible *.*

I don't see why not, the most boring song of the year, "Rockstar", just spent four weeks at #1 with zero promotion laugh.gif

This is #29 in the midweeks today! Top 40 debut should be secured biggrin.gif

This is really starting to grow on me. Now I get to know the rap a little bit it's very infectious to rap along.

Top 50 on Spotify and C-List on Radio! Smash hit incoming *_* It has grown on me and I love Rihanna's verse, I just wish she did more on the song. Also, I think the production is pretty basic to say it's a Pharrell song.

Hehe I had the same reaction when I found out, but it really is their first Hot 100 entry.

Only dropped 2 places this week in the UK! Very impressed. It's doing better than I expected considering it doesn't even have a chorus laugh.gif.

This has spent a third week in the UK top 40! biggrin.gif A new peak is looking unlikely but hopefully it will stick around the lower ends of the top 40 for a while. It's up to B list on Radio 1 and has been both Clara's and Nick's Record of the Week there so it should be stable for a while anyway.

It has disappeared off UK iTunes (it was at #36 or something). Does anybody know why?

Oh I was looking at kworb. It's probably just an error then.

Okay, this is actually pretty good...just that 30 second fast intro kills it - and its a 1.10 long on Spotify!

If it just opened on Rihanna from the start would be a much more instant track.

'Lemon' has just entered the top 40 on the Billboard hot 100

Her 50th top 40 hit

Only behind Taylor in top 40 hits

STILL climbing on US iTunes

I never really liked this haha. Rih's rap is good though and proud of her to get yet another top 40 hit *.*

For female artists I think because there are a few others above her (including 'Glee Cast' and 'Lil' Wayne'...).

The more I listen to 'Lemon' the more I think that it's not really all that but kudos to Rihanna's star power for giving N.E.R.D. their first Billboard Hot 100 hit and dragging it all the way into the top 40.
