well it's #21 on the rap-dominated apple music so they should take that into account instead.

How did MACKENZIE PORTER These Days do in the US top 40? It's currently #11 on Canada top 40, and it was a big country smash first.

No it’s not. What’s female got to do with it. It’s Taylor Swift... She’s the biggest artist in the world outside of Adele. 21 is not a good position for her brand new single. It’s not horrible, just low key bad.

Truth is truth. Nothing unkind about it. And yeah, I think everyone agrees Billie is doing horribly with this song. Not sure what the argument is supposed to be.

Imagine being this ignorant about a major chart determinant in a charts thread. Apple Music is a rap-dominated streaming platform.

The fact that she is still in the TOP 40 weeks after is impressive.

 

All the pop girls are struggling to reach T20 in that chart, even Billie is now at #60~.

 

That (onAM) and high Spotify US position (despite playlisting sabotage) shall warrant better push at radios over, say, Maroon 5's payola'd new song.

The fact that you just outright said that TAYLOR SWIFT is being sabotaged automatically makes you a clown. You sound like a Barb.

Maroon 5 is a different issue but Cardigan isn’t being blackballed. It was just one small update, who knows what’s gonna happen, and it’s not doing fly in any platform mere days after being released, so the update reflects its positioning well.

At the rate of these updates nothing is going to challenge WS for the #1 for a while since it's so far ahead and nothing else is gaining so fast. The next #1 will probably be BYG or Rockstar but not for some time since it needs to catch up unless Watermelon Sugar declines fast. I guess radio is stuck between a rock and a hard place of listeners being bored and tired of the older songs in rotation (Blinding Lights, Adore You etc) but don't have much else to replace those songs with that they're willing to support. It means all these updates are so stagnant though.

Why has Taylor stalled so much with Pop radio aside from Delicate post-1989? Betty is already getting adds on Country before the add date and her team are pushing it with ads on Country Aircheck too so it's not as if radio as a whole isn't willing to support her. I don't get it. The song went to #1 and has held up decently on streaming too.

Not saying it's fishy or something, but BL could be securing the record till Monday, still it's not going to free fall or anything.
