I would not consider God's Plan to be a pop song lmao Callouts don't explain everything but God's Plan isn't smashing on there, in fact it has the third highest negative rating currently: http://www.mmr247.com/mmrweb/call/callout.asp It's still at #6 on Pop radio, and will likely get to #4 shortly, and most likely top 3 as well. It's been #1 in the Hot 100 for 11 weeks, who cares if it hits #1 on Pop radio. Never mind the fact that it's hit #1 on Urban and Rhythmic.

He has a song debuting #1 next week, and it's not charting, and when it does it will struggle to peak high. Do you see the pattern? Or shall we continue with other Urban artists Urban artists who are extremely successful deserve to be given good airplay time on Top 40 just as much as Pop artists who are extremely successful is the overall point. Why should they have to Pop-wash their music sound, add Pop features, and use vocals on 75% of the song in order to get huge play? Top 40 radio originated as simply playing what was popular. Pop, R&B, Rock, etc all got huge airtime if they were relevant on the charts. Then during the early 90s when Rap started to take off and Alternative such as Nirvana got huge sales/charting, they turned away from playing that music despite being popular. And ever since, they turn more and more away from songs that aren't Pop with a basic Max Martin production. Beyonce with songs like Love on Top & Hold Up can't even get airplay on Top 40 now. It should definitely be discussed.

God’s Plan is not a pop song nor is it candy coated pop rap A person who writes for a financial magazine isn’t exactly the most qualified person to classify a song’s genre
brainmaniac Posted April 15, 2018 Posted April 15, 2018 2 hours ago, iHype. said: Havana is NOT an Urban song simply because it has a Rapper (maybe you shouldn’t even be joining the discussion if you don’t know what Urban music is). So no, that comparison is invalid. Top 40 is not supposed to play purely Pop music. It's suppose to play a mix of whats popular. No we shouldn’t — that makes no sense. Urban and Rhythmic play a certain genre of music, R&B and Hip-Hop. Just as nobody is complaining that Drake isn’t charting on HAC & AC while Pop artists dominate that section — because they play a certain genre that is completely not meant for Drake’s music. Top 40 however is meant to play a spread of genres. The similarity between the music is that it’s popular music for the general crowd. Drake is the biggest artist in the country, and has a 11 week #1 hit. Obviously it should be at the top of Top 40 Radio if they’re supposed to be playing popular music. Honestly are you just trying to say only black people listen to a Drake and he has no place on Pop radio? Because white women aged 18-34 eat up his music. You would find a 21 year old white female who listens to Drake frequently before you find one that listens to Camila Cabello and Meghan Trainor. Views was the biggest album of 2016, and he looks to have the biggest album of 2018. You don’t get the huge crossover widespread appeal Drake has without also connecting with the white audience largely. There’s a reason God’s Plan spent 8 weeks at #1 in sales. Do you think black people are heavily using iTunes more than white people? Especially in 2018? He clearly has a huge connect with the white audience. And just as you guys say those under aged 18 mostly use Streaming; therefore his huge power on iTunes is from the demographic ages 18-34. All of those artists each did much better on Drake at Top 40 during their peak, despite him having just as much appeal. That’s the issue. And Drake has more hits total than Kanye/TI/50 on Pop because his career has been successful longer; however his biggest single peaks on Pop are smaller than theirs despite the larger career. Again, that’s the issue. I didn’t say only black people listen to Drake nor did I say he has no place on pop radio. He has had songs on the format before that fit in with what the format usually plays. This song isn’t one of those so it’s not surprising that it’s not as big as his biggest hits on the format and in the end if it peaks at #3 that’s really not that bad and will end up one of his bigger hits anyway Obviously there is is a difference in the demographics of the different formats or he would be more successful on pop radio Drake has better single peaks than 50 and TI too. Drake has a #1 and a #2. 50 only has a #1. He only has one other single in the Top 5 at #5 TI only has one Top 2 at #1 compared to 2 for Drake He has two other Top 5s but so does/will Drake Kanye has two #1s but I think that’s close enough to Drake #1 and #2 and besides Stronger has a way bigger pop influence than most rap crossovers is and basically more of an electronic dance song

And why are you even mentioning his other songs, you know as well as anyone having two songs charting concurrently on Pop radio is rare. Not to mention that Drake is known for not caring about being traditional in promoting records, have his other songs even been sent to Pop radio? You said yourself that Top 40 radio has changed, it plays primarily pop music. Pop music and what’s “popular” are not the same thing anymore, pop music is a genre. Was Urban and Rhythmic radio around back then? I know they weren’t included on the Hot 100 until recently.

Drake is #1 in audience on rhythmic and urban for a reason. and it's not like rhythmic exclusively plays r&b, both Closer and SOY peaked at #3. GP could probably peak at #3 on pop too Edited April 15, 2018 by levi_valvi

Mediabase Posted April 15, 2018 Posted April 15, 2018 (edited) Streaming is dominated by heterosexual young males who are very tech savvy and don't really like pure pop and pop females. iTunes and Physical sales of albums and singles were very female driven. Hetero men consumers are dominating the industry at the moment due to streaming, something that has never happened before. As for POP radio, they target females 18-34. They couldn't care less about what's doing well on streaming. There are tons of examples of dance, country, urban, pure pop etc. songs that sold very well on iTunes and we're at no1 for weeks or sols well durinf the physical era and pop radio didn't show much support. It's not something that just happens now. Pop radio just cares about research and call out scores. Drake might be doing well with pop audiences in LA but he ain't doing well in places like Pittsburgh or Des Moines. There's Rhythmic and Urban radio for him. Edited April 15, 2018 by Mediabase

After some more thinking, it seems that Chartfan was completely right Pop has become a genre chart. The industry might still call it a overall top 40, but listeners and radio programmers do not. Streaming has made up the difference which is fair because the top Pop song can get well over 100 ai at Pop alone. Same can't be said for the top song on Urban/Rhythmic After much deliberation...I finally see Chartfan's point this one time...its a genre chart I mean...Rihanna is one of the biggest acts on pop, but neither What's My Name nor Work went #1 for they were more dancehall/urban-oriented...especially in Work's case considering it was #1 for 9 weeks
