Worst Callouts for a Number-One Pop hit

** This just takes into account the first week the song went #1.

 

Rank. Artist - "Song" (Year) Potential Score (Net Positive to break the tie)

1. Justin Bieber - "Intentions (feat. Quavo)" (2020) 75 (27.7)

2. Flo Rida - "Whistle" (2012) 75 (29.3)

3. Ne-Yo - "So Sick" (2006) 76 (27.6)

 

This is ironic because I always thought the lyrics to this song were "I'm so sick of this song, so tired of it."

So I expect ROM to debut this week. Could Daisies debut as well? It was released before ROM.

It has good callouts, it could potentially go Top 10, but idk, doesn't seem so.

[Raphy23]

This weeks results are weird in general. the bones randomly rising???

Just when radio decided to drop it.  

[LastGreatBloodline]

Will swu get better updates now that callouts are decent? I don't get how much radio is paying it dust when it has two of the biggest hitmakers of the 2010s. Is is because it was overshadowed by intentions? 

I can't believe ppl are still not tired of BL

It's one of the worst songs I've EVER heard. And I enjoy music from both of these artists.

I mean it had its chance, Pop was actually very very receptive with this song, mainly based on its sucess on other formats, but yeah, these type of songs are kind of a hit-or-miss on Pop because of the "adult" sound. It didn't click as well as expected.

[Medonerpls]

The bones rising when it’s being dropped

no Daisies or ROM debut 

[LCTV]

So can they drop Justin Bieber off pop now?

[imaginetruIy]

New callouts out already

Welp that explains why the mediocre updates for BK, it's going to get dropped, it's truly a shame, it's like my favorite song of the year, the song screams RADIO CANDY all the way, yet people have bad taste.  

 

"Savage" actually recovering and showing good callouts, it has potential to grow, Top 5 Pop hit coming.

 

I believe it's going to be Abel atop for months.  

[SignificantOther]

Callouts are really taking ages for news hits. We're going to have several top 10 pop hits next week without callouts. 

[Raphy23]

These results suck! The best songs are always at the bottom :/ 

 

Anyway how is Supalonely returning? I've never seen that before

Could be that people were not out and about as much during covid, so they haven't heard this new music yet. It's so depressing though -__- :( 

[Lovett]

"Savage" is going to go top 5 on Pop soon.

It's probably that and radio hanging on to old songs like never before making it harder for new songs to reach the 60 familiarity threshold. 

[nick4bty]

The Bones having a huge rise right after they dropped it  Don't Start Now rising, BMH stalling, yet another pop song debuting dead last, Supalonely returning and Blueberry Faygo dropping off... these callouts lately are an absolute mess

[americanlife]

Disgusted at Death Bed and Sunday Best. Hope those don’t become hits.
