No Sleeep

Wow. Madonna is coming!!!

They have to! It’s not a remix and she’s a credited featured artist so they have no choice as far as I’m aware

An Instragram post takes nothing though and considering how well it’s doing on playlists you’d think she’d want to be associated with it! I can’t see Vulgar getting anywhere near as much success

:lol:

Honestly I wonder if someone on her team is sabotaging her

I’m a lot more moderate than I used to be (always been more left, now closer to the centre). But now I feel like I sort of see through it all. I’m not one to go with the crowd so I don’t feel comfortable identifying as either when I know my views don’t fully align with either. I know we don’t really have a two-party system here but we might as well with the way things are nowadays.

Popular at #56 on iTunes I just downloaded, hope it picks up soon it should really be an easy #1 for her. Edit: doesn’t come up when I search for it, anybody else? I only found it on the charts. Up to #41 now

Vulgar is the ugly stepchild but for some reason she’s giving all the attention to it :unsure:

He has no stage presence imo, I just don’t see it. And to be a pop star you need some semblance of a voice, I love Britney and I’m the first to admit she’s not exactly Whitney Houston but she has a distinctive voice that sounds good… Lil Nas X’s just doesn’t to me (and I find his whole meme personality insufferable). Everybody’s entitled to their opinion I’m not stopping anybody from liking him

I hope this will be her eventual return to the Radio 1 playlist! They must really hate her if they ignore this, it sounds like such a hit and the streaming support is amazing

What’s the talent exactly beyond making memes? His vocals aren’t exactly amazing and he comes across as a bit of a Reddit edgelord

This is so much better than I was expecting and I’m really happy with the playlist placements… do we think Madonna might have another top 10 hit on her hands!? And this is what she can sound like when she isn’t auto tuned to within an inch of her life

He had a bigger budget and better collaborators but I still don’t think he has talent. The vocals on “That’s What I Want” are painful to listen to.

Won’t it take a few months to get vinyls out? I can’t blame them for rushing the single out as this kind of success is unprecedented so you never know when it’s going to dry up

Bingo ^_^ I did not think anyone took her seriously, they certainly didn’t when that Munch song was a thing (for all the wrong reasons). I feel like this is the case with a lot of “meme” artists that actually have very little talent (Lil Nas X is another one IMO)

I think it’s gotta which is even worse (and even worse hearing Sam say it)

Is this their apology for blocking Rebel Heart from #1 with that dross album

I can’t stand The Weeknd’s whiny voice

No music videos for one. I think “visualiser” is just code for “we don’t have the budget for/can’t be bothered doing a real video” lol

8k seems like a lot to chart at #187, it doesn’t even take 30k to go top 10 sometimes. The albums chart is very odd

I’d expect at least 2000 tbh. Really hard to predict but I’d say between 2 and 4 thousand. If streaming keeps growing or stays stable top 10 might be achievable so I don’t blame them for holding out. Although saying that I did cancel my pre-order as I can’t really justify it atm lol

Maybe they feel like they can hold off and go all out for top 10 the week of the CD single

Yeah if they think top 20 is achievable I’m sure they’ll have an acoustic or instrumental ready to go, or maybe they’re saving it for the CD single week for maximum impact which I wouldn’t blame them for

Happy is my favourite song by far. One of her best

In general though there’s not much a fanbase can do for streaming if the song doesn’t catch on with the public, however with sales it’s much easier to make an impact. You can stream all day all week and it’ll still only contribute 0.7 sales. Thankfully with Padam Padam it’s appeal has extended beyond the fanbase so it is doing well on streaming
