May 22, 20206 yr 05 | 05 | 14th week Powfu featuring beabadoobee death bed (coffee for your head) 1st single from Some Boring, Love Stories, Pt. 2 and 1st single from poems of the past Released: 9th February 2019 Label: Columbia Records Chart Statistics NE (27/02/2020) | 68-51-35-34-23-19-14-8-7-7-5-4-5-5 Sales: 300k+ Certification: Silver Status: Standard Chart Ratio 05 Sales 04 Audio Streaming 30 Video Streaming Video jJPMnTXl63E Biography In 2017, an artist named beabadoobee released a sweet, acoustic ballad called “Coffee.” Fast forward two years, a producer under the name Otterpop sampled the “Coffee” hook into a beat. When young Canadian artist, Powfu, sang and rapped over the beat, then released it last February, it blew up. One year later, it is blowing up for the second time. Powfu’s iteration of “Coffee,” titled “death bed,” is gracefully melancholic. Beyond the title, this is evident through lyrics like “I wish it could be me, but I won’t make it out this bed / I hope I go to heaven so I see you once again.” With a punk-leaning cadence and a vocal timbre similar to G-Eazy, Powfu describes his music as alternative punk lo-fi hip-hop. It is clear each of these elements influences his sound, from songs like “Her Ocean Eyes,” which is reminiscent of the punk hip-hop combination of Twenty One Pilots, to tracks like “I can’t sleep,” in which Powfu both raps and sings over a supporting lo-fi beat. Upon its original Soundcloud release last February, “death bed” gained traction on both Soundcloud and YouTube (the YouTube video now has 27.6 million plays). TikTok soon caught up with this budding viral phenomenon. As of the time of writing this, over 958,900 TikToks have been made with the song, from sentimental videos about relationships and family to aesthetic, artistic videos. One especially popular TikTok trend has accompanied the growth of this song – a video in which the person filming confesses their feelings for a best friend and captures their reaction. This tipping point provoked a demand for the song to be on streaming platforms like Apple Music and Spotify. Since its release to these platforms just two weeks ago, “death bed” has garnered over 20.8 million streams on Spotify, alone. Today’s technological landscape has allowed Powfu, who has been releasing music consistently since 2018, to invite millions of listeners into his world. The popularity of “death bed” has awarded Powfu substantial, continued exposure for his versatile, sad-boy sound. - OnesToWatch.com Top 100 Chart History Powfu 2020 04 death bed (coffee for your head) (feat. beabadoobee) -1- 0 x #1 | 1 x Top 5 | 1 x Top 10 | 1 x Top 20 | 1 x Top 40 | 1 x Top 100 beabadoobee 2020 04 death bed (coffee for your head) (Powfu feat. beabadoobee) 0 x #1 | 1 x Top 5 | 1 x Top 10 | 1 x Top 20 | 1 x Top 40 | 1 x Top 100 Social Media Powfu beabadoobee http://i.imgur.com/1SERq1f.png
May 22, 20206 yr I know they've been changing the lyrics to this song to make it les death-y but I've not heard "my life was kinda slow" before, is that a new one?
May 22, 20206 yr I heard the song and it is bloody brilliant. It's fantastic! I can't wait for the video. :heart: It should have been the follow-up to the Telephone video though. :kink:
May 22, 20206 yr Wasn't Death Bed #2 at some point, was it on Sunday? Yup, presumably due to sales being close and it being #1 on Amazon, who are usually on time reporting their data.
May 22, 20206 yr Powfu ending up behind Simba is disappointing given its strong start to the week Has it definitely escaped ACR ?
