I think Olivia Rodrigo might have something to say about that... :P

I see what you mean but Olivia has only really been strongest in streaming compared to Levitating...yeah, now she's catching up in other formats as well but that still doesn't change a fact that Levitating was robbed off #1 for at least a week!!!

The longevity of Levitating is wonderful, its the song that keeps on giving.

I wonder if Dua is still so happy collaborating with DaBaby after reading this https://www.pinknews.co.uk/2021/07/26/dabab...-loud-festival/ :huh:

I'm very happy I've always chosen to listen to the original! I do wonder if some sort of statement from Dua will come out shortly

 

@1420131120197287943

I can certainly see Dua Lips releasing a statement.

Great statement and very glad to see she immediately did this :heart: Her working with him always felt like a label decision to 'score another hit', instead of Dua herself really wanting to do this for creative purposes.

I'm very happy I've always chosen to listen to the original! I do wonder if some sort of statement from Dua will come out shortly

 

Same! The only time I've even heard the DaBaby version is when I watched the video twice and heard it on the radio.

 

What a disgusting individual DaBaby is though, imagine saying something that vile and then doubling down on it. :manson:

I guess it's time to watch this video instead.

 

I'm very happy I've always chosen to listen to the original!

Same!

It seems that there will be a switch of the DaBaby remix and the original version of the song on the streaming playlist platforms. The latter will be replacing the former. Even, there are some US radio stations which are doing the same.

There are some interesting stats about the switch of both versions in the US. Even, it implies a new wind since audiences were starting to get tired of the DaBaby version at some point in the article.

On July 27, 70.2% of the radio audience for "Levitating" was for the hit DaBaby remix of the song that's currently sitting at No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100, according to MRC Data; on Aug. 2, just 49.5% of its audience was from that version. Overall, "Levitating" remains a robust radio hit, with combined airplay for all versions dropping only slightly from an audience of 12.3 million on July 20 to just over 12 million on Aug. 2.

 

Until DaBaby appeared at Rolling Loud, his "Levitating" remix was driving the song's popularity: As of July 29, the remix had 79% of the song's more than 650 million on-demand streams across all versions, according to MRC Data. (Of that, 511.5 million on-demand streams were for the DaBaby remix, 117.6 million for the original Dua Lipa solo version, and 22.1 million for other versions, including remixes with Madonna and Missy Elliott.)
