Equal opportunity Don’t forget Shawn Mendes and Post Malone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fake stanning for this song because of that reason isn't ok. Like, there was NO reason to bring race into this but y'all brought it in anyway. This isn't a thread about politics, it's about MUSIC and all four songs are harmless. We're happy cause its super refreshing seeing a good, innovative hip hop song blocking generic, uninspired trashy pop songs. If it wasnt for him those 4 white artists would have an underserved #1 song right now to their credit. We are glad it didnt happen and white mediocrity lost. btw ATRL faggts really thought pop music was back lmfaoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can’t see race only when it comes to politics and pretend to be colorblind everywhere else. The truth is that white mediocrity (white people releasing mediocre songs) would have been #1 without Nas Maraj and for that, we thank him! Seriously, this is the GROSS part of the fake stanning for OTR that I'm talking about. You're literally labelling this as a race issue in order to stan for the song and not for the song itself.

R.E.M. Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 The people who deserved #1s (Ari, Gaga) got theirs before OTReign Also, what we mean by white mediocrity is: Taylor: Released the worst song of her career with the most atrocious bridge in pop music history. It also features a male artist with the most grating vocals in the industry. Shawn: All his songs sound the same, he's demonstrated 0 artistic growth, and how he managed to crack the top 10 is a mystery in itself Bieber & Ed: Another generic, trend-chasing song from two of the most bland, unseasoned artists. So yes, white mediocrity LOST. No one's saying because they're white they don't deserve a #1. We're simply saying that the mediocre trash they released would've gone #1 without OTR so we're thankful for the quality control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianc33710 Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 On 5/15/2019 at 6:49 PM, trainsskyscrapers said: It's an issue because Billboard closed the doors to country music on him, and now he's slaying white artists who dabble in Urban music and closing the doors on a #1 single. Daddy Lessons and Formation walked so Lil Nas X and Childish Gambino could run. OTR only charted on the CAC for 2 nonconsecutive weeks. It popped back on a second time with 30 adds (actually the most that week), only to fall off again the next week. MB didn't report even 1 OTR add this week. If it can't get airplay at a format, even with BRC featured on it, then BB won't put the song on the chart. Now, with Royals 2013-4, BB had no reason to keep it off of the Urban chart. If a song is #3 in overall Urban radio airplay chart, and reaches both the Mainstream and the Adult R&B chart, the song should chart. I brought this up to Gary and Silvio, but they never answered that email (maybe because they recognized they made a mistake). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
