It's frankly surprising though that it can be playlisted on Radio 2 which is for older listeners and 1Xtra which is aimed more at the young black audience, yet Radio 1 feels like they need to flop despite the song ticking the stuff they would want a song to be on it's playlist. Same can go for John Legend. :angry:

ASAP Rocky on R2! :lol:

 

There is a non rap version available to radio, are you sure they're not playing that version? It is a shame Radio 1 have snubbed it, it's quite a nice record.

Why on earth do radio 2 move on so quickly - Love my Life should be in there until Xmas as it could be a big single hit.

 

They do love supporting Xmas songs too on their playlist - lol also at Robin Schulz straight into the A List - that's a radio 1 track!!

The website credits the A$AP Rocky version. The song itself is yet to be played by Radio 2.

 

I heard it on Graham Norton's show last Saturday. It was the solo version.

I'm quite impressed with the Robin Schulz & David Guetta support! Such a good song.

I see! Was that the same with Maroon 5 and Sia's tracks earlier this year?

Why do Radio 2 love Robin Schulz so much? I remember them playing 'Sugar' a fair bit too.

I guess they think the chilled vibes of his music fits the Radio 2 criteria perfectly, although Shed A Light is by far the most rowdy thing he's done since he got big.

Really feels worth it to have a delayed update just for The Weeknd :lol:

Hopefully this Radio 2 support can help it reach a new peak in the New Year, I do feel as though the singles performance has been somewhat underwhelming especially considering the massive longterm success of Starboy (even now when the single has stopped being pushed).

Isn't it the longterm success of Starboy that is the problem?

I wish he had performed I Feel It Coming on X Factor, for me it's the best thing he's ever done by a long stretch.
