They are really payolaing this all the way to #1, aren't they?

 

I don't have a problem with radio per se, but it's become such easy way to manipulated Hot 100, it's insane.

They payalo the smaller stations for spins (lower AI) make no sense though? At max it would be #1 for pop radio but HOT100 points are based on AI

DWAS slowing down just when the tracking week is over

 

[jdanton2]

they pulled the plug on Taylor after peaking at #5.

Drake is suing UMG & Spotify: https://www.linkedin.com/news/story/drake-hits-back-at-umg-spotify-6256012/

 

The year's biggest rap feud has taken a surprising turn, with superstar Drake filing a legal petition accusing Universal Music Group and Spotify of a "scheme" to "artificially inflate" the popularity of Kendrick Lamar's song "Not Like Us." The filing alleges that Lamar's chart-topping, Drake-skewering track benefitted from a payola campaign involving bots and a deal wherein UMG offered Spotify reduced licensing rates in exchange for recommending the song to listeners. UMG called the allegations "absurd" in a statement. Both Drake and Lamar distribute their music through UMG labels.

[pride4jc1222]

To be fair, US radio needs a complete overhaul. The payola is out of control and songs are being pushed/held on to way too long. I really don't care if Drake wins the lawsuit, but if it results in radio going back to its natural roots (of the 70s and 80s), then it's all worth it.
