JayRockafella Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 (edited) legit shocked at this Edited January 31, 2023 by JayRockafella
Richmond Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 Why are we shocked? WAP had 0 radio support and the only reason SFG is still charting is because of radio (which is the heaviest weighing factor on chart positions). Plus, one’s a pop song, the other a rap STAPLE!
chaklux Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 Wap is still the bigger and more known hit worldwide though
Symmetra Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 Knocking 11 faces hits out 1 week at a time
Blue Monday Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 (edited) Radio is carrying SFG whereas WAP was decimating streaming for awhile after it was released. Is it even charting on AM or Spotify at this point? Keep it cute! Edited January 31, 2023 by Blue Monday
TanjiroKamado Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 The kii if it drops out of the Hot 100 next week
Blackout2006 Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 (edited) They were laughing too much so Nicki decided to keep it cute, drop this smash and remind everyone that she still has it in her to go complete berserk on y'all faves that run amok on the very path she paved Edited January 31, 2023 by Blackout2006
Sinister Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 its radio-friendly, so not surprising. Didn't it go top 5 on US radio overall?
Selegend Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 SFG is a bop and a smash at the United States, don't get me wrong But WAP is WAY more global, isn't SFG already out of Spotify's ww top 200?
Zaram Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 Weeks is literally the worst metric you can choose
Bosque Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 I mean, WAP spent 11 weeks in the Top 3 and has over a billion streams. SFG has 2 weeks in the Top 3 and 300m streams, so not sure how it "outdid" WAP in any dimension
cockatoo Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 WAP was a cultural reset whilst SFG is just a quick little hit

abeille Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 How? It's N/A on Global Spotify and #175 (-55) in the US
Both Sides Now Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 6 minutes ago, abeille said: How? It's N/A on Global Spotify and #175 (-55) in the US Radio is keeping this afloat. It basically replaced Big Energy on Pop radio (which had replaced Planet Her’s presence.) SFG started off strong but collapsed on streaming pretty quickly. Tomorrow 2 ended up outlasting: Tomorrow 2 (18th week): ~50k Super Freaky Girl (18th week): ~40k
FightDragonsWithMe Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 WAP is bigger regardless of how many weeks SFG charts.
HEAVYONIT Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 (edited) WAP was only popular because of the shock value, so's not surprising, but still very impressive for Nicki 7 minutes ago, Both Sides Now said: SFG started off strong but collapsed on streaming pretty quickly. Tomorrow 2 ended up outlasting: Tomorrow 2 (18th week): ~50k Super Freaky Girl (18th week): ~40k OK, but this isn't overtly surprising, considering Glorilla is a new artist born in the streaming era and Nicki has been around for 12+ years...and SFG still even managed to outsell and garner more streams, and that's with Nicki not being a streaming artist.

Diet Pepsi Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 it only took countless remixes & endless pop radio payola congrats to Super Freaky Grandma I guess

pavi Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 Isn't the amount of weeks charting a bit.. bare to say it surpassed WAP's chart run? What are the positions of these songs during charting?
