JBJT2786 Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 Let me bookmark this so two months from now when it hits Platinum like Please Me, I can come back for the backfire.

I know abandoning Nicki when she flopped must've been really hard so keeping tabs on the girl who erased her career seems like the only way to cope. At least you have Gaga whose career rebounded This gotta be one of the worst takes to make an excuse for a song underperforming. “Hard rap” has been dominating the charts for years now. People just aren’t feeling this song.

I guess "Please Me" was Atlantic's way of showing her versatility, which was a failed effort IMO...b/c it didn't do much for her overall brand IMO. She need a real Pop smash in order to viewed other than a one-trick pony.

Lol...right. Does Platinum, etc. matter these days, if the song is not a pop culture MOMENT? Will GP even remember "Please Me"? Like, in the streaming era....certifications don't seem quite as relevant to me. No? I find it funny how ATRL is big on certifications all of a sudden, when you couldn't stop them from talk about all of Cardi's Top 10s and #1s. Now all of a sudden peaks don't matter??? Certifications are more important? Which is it??

slayships Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 Damn free falling five spots already? Its barely been four days. I know cardi will be panicking
NavyBlue Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 It’s a horrid song and her “flow” sounds more off than usual. But, it’ll probs be a hit anyway.

Me posting on an chart obsessed thread ATRL- quiet Me posting on a Cardi thread - Charts dont matter Barbz- "I find it funny how ATRL is big on certifications all of a sudden, when you couldn't stop them from talk about all of Cardi's Top 10s and #1s." Again ya are tiring. I'veA song needs to be a Pop culture moment to be remembered? These are not popstars for 900000th time. THE RAP GAME has always been held to a different standard. So of the most memorable rap songs this decade arent even POP culture moments ( outside of Kendricks Humble and Drakes Gods plan). Ive discussed this several times. Including last week ( which included Nicki). Longevity matters at the end of the day. Period. PM was on the top 10 for 2 months, has dropped the top 40 and its gonna be multiplatinum. Ya need to stop it with the chart peaks cuz some of your fave best songs ( lookin ass, beez in the trap, your love) barely cracked the top 10 and 40 and are mutiplat hits But I'm a Cardi stan and a Nicki hater for pointing out that CHARTS DONT MATTER. LONGEVITY DOES!!! Edited June 4, 2019 by JBJT2786

Bethenny Frankel Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 Please Me outcharted every Nicki single except Anaconda, Superbass, FEFE and Bang Bang. Cardi is not flopping, Press will do fine. Some of y'all need to learn what suffering means.

Try again. Btw. I consider Chun- Li a hit and should be 2x Plat by now...dunno what Nickis team is doing waiting... Edited June 4, 2019 by JBJT2786

I like both, but tend to lean more Nicki lately to balance out the stan delusions here on ATRL. The longevity ATRL NEED to be worried about, is if Cardi is going to be versatile enough to survive another 2-3 years in the game. Because that's looking a little shaky lately with the latest single choices (speaking quality, not chart success). Momentum might slow down if she keep under-delivering. Real rap. I'm actually honestly shocked that Atlantic fumbling the ball, after such a massive debut era. I guess these one-off singles buying her enough time to find some more IOP-level hit songs.

IMO it's not a real measure of success + impact necessarily.
JBJT2786 Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 14 minutes ago, Yanko said: bed is for sure platinum not sure on barbie dreams-my mistake Look. I have 0 grudge musically with your fave. I loved Queen and I wish Good Form ( second best on the ablum btw) did better. But ya need to stop being so petty. You know what's the best way to shut the Cardi stans up? Support your fave and get her another mutiplatinum hit and longevity on the charts ( she dont have to be top10...but give her a comeback), cuz the worst things ive seen from this feud is ya wayyyyyy too focused on Cardi and ya not asking Nicki for more good music. That should be the focus now. Not following this girls every move. The Nicki haters were here way before Cardi even stepped up. Now my interest in Nicki as a person has waned greatly in the last year but she will always a great rapper in my eyes. I just wish ya can focus on bringing that back. I'm still gonna kii if and when Press goes platinum. But I meant all that.

Where did I say pop music moment? ...I'm talking about ATRLers need to put female rappers in popstar level where that shouldnt be the case. I dont think shes fallen off yet. These are obivously what you said one-off. She needs to take more control cuz obivously she needs to have her team handle everything and they're just throwing what sticks. The thing. Its still making her money. But she needs to stop the touring and go to the studio to make a cohesive ablum. Because IOP, no matter how great it was , is not a cohesive album. She cant pull the same magic twice. If that ends up happening I'll be on the other side of table . But the girl ain't flopping and the fact still remains that these girls are obsessed with every song Cardi releases. It's only been 4 days. Cardi hasnt had one single song blow up instantly from release. Why are expecting anything different right now?
