Also people should mainly pay attention to the numbers here and not the positions which will mislead people, it is dealing with an Olivia Rodrigo album bomb in which all of Olivia’s songs are Top 15. For comparison, WAP would’ve debuted all the way down at #8 with its US debut numbers in this environment. 

But the actual streams are lower though, not just the position.  But I guess WAP was height of COVID + streams could’ve been up.  
 

Where did UP and Hot **** debut?

Oh yeah there’s no excuse for the numbers which I think there are several reasons why they declined so much. But I do think the US position is slightly misleading as to its level of bombing.

Will Cardi ever fall off…. Well we’ll we’ll

Where did UP and Hot **** debut? 

 

US Spotify:

 

#1. WAP  2,340,504

#3. Up  1,070,279

#6. Hot ****  1,142,693

#20. Bongos  979,568

 

 

Bongos numbers are not that far from Up, but Bongos had an Olivia's album bomb

 

I'm shocked Hot **** number is higher though

 

 

[katara]

That's a lot actually for such a garbage song. Cardi is completely over. She has no vision.

Oh ok that’s not THAT bad then.  
 

But yeah…not sure what it means for longevity of the song.  I can see this song doing well on TikTok especially in comparison to Hot ****.  So let’s see.

I am actually speechless 

[réveuse]

[legendofthetour]

This is such a bad song, I genuinely cannot believe they thought it was a good idea, Cardi has now dropped 2 duds in a row as the lead artist, and Megan has started off her post trial era with a huge embarrassing flop. What a mess.

Someone on Twitter said they should’ve named the song Bozos instead 

 

💀

[vale9001]

i'm not a buzzfeed thinkpiece so i can say it for what is this: she should come with something new than shaking her ass and lesbian bait.

[ALA]

Oh that's not...

 

Wasting WAP and Up with no album was a choice. For this to do this bad is alarming.

[Ger]

It's more than what it deserves honestly. So the "shelved" allegations are kind of true huh.

[LustSpell]

We'll see if it grows, but Cardi always screamed one-era wonder to me. Just came at the perfect time when people were tired of the repetition of female rap at the time.

[UnusualBoy]

Yeah, this is bad but she had it coming…

[Billionaire]

Cardi should just start shifting her full-time focus to being an influencer or something since her celebrity status has become bigger than her music. She clearly isn't passionate about music anyway and few times she drops the songs are horrible quality + always end up underperforming. 

 

Sad for Megan that her comeback single had to be wasted on this DOA mess.

[La Reina]

Cardi really dropped the ball by not dropping the album in 2021.

 

Honestly ever since "Press" her music has been going downhill with an exception here and there. She just needs to release a good song and it'll smash.

[ForgottenSoul]

The song is good but like not catchy enough tbh

[Jake Frank]

well...at least the video is awesome. 

[Mystic Boy]

Horrible numbers considering the hype.

 

The biggest wasted potential for a female rapper since Azealia Banks.

 

If she smartly released her album after WAP and UP, it would be at least 3x Platinum by now and would avoided the 1 era wonder claims

[Caribbean Boy]

Chileeee were the bardo gang members????? Y’all really ducking this thread 😂😂😂😂

So LTISY debuted at #52 with 1.951M, without TTH and RapCaviar, without a feature, without a video, without a radio deal and without 10 interviews?  Seems like 2M budget going down the drain
 

Let’s see the excuses, as BG was hyping this as her big comeback

OMG
