She can’t reach 250 points even with CDs and Vinyls opening week, she will be number 1 this week but really, all of that for 250 points? hate me all you want, this is not the lead we wanted (at least me) and it shows. yeah I just saw on facebook release of extended and something and I was like "oh gurl why so desperate" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aren’t the CD and vinyl singles not actually shipping until next month? Both are preorder products on her store and the vinyl single specifically says it ships “by February 9th.” The new singles today were the very first additional things that will count for the tracking week, and they don’t seem out of the ordinary in the modern music market.

In the UK they shipped today so I doubt they won’t in the US. And to has 5 new versions on week one, day 3 when the competition is that weak (again, 250-ish points), yes, it’s beyond normal or regular. This song will never be a real hit that no one will remember in 5 minutes time, no matter how many times they will try to push it week 1 and pretend. Hope single 2 will be good and not that weak.

Do you mean the CDs, vinyl, or both shipped in the UK? What “five new versions” are you counting? Are you counting, like, the lyric video upload as its own version or something? Most singles have those these days anyway - even album tracks. And you’d have to be counting the explicit and non-explicit listing of the extended and instrumental to reach that number too. I feel like this really isn’t half as bad as you’re making it out to be. It’s not a huge debut week, sure, but it’s up against an established hit song that’s rising in points thanks in part to rapidly increasing radio airplay; it doesn’t mean this song is dead on arrival that it didn’t secure the #1 on her name alone. I would be willing to bet this does fine in the long run and becomes a respectable radio hit - writing it off so soon seems misguided and seems like it’s mostly based on you not liking the song. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know about the cds anyway. she has 6 versions on the top 10, yes clean and not clean but all released today. Normal? Yes to Nicki and the BTS people not just to all and not on day 3. All half price. Already! not counting lyrics video, no, but even that she added today. don’t tell me they are happy from how big of a hit it is when the competition is so weak and they need all this on day 3. I’m sure she’ll get the number 1 now of course. about my taste? Yes I don’t like the song, but also the data shows that it’s falling more than “normal” and that still with being number 1 on any possible playlist and again, only day 3. radio hit? I’m sure you’re right but for big names in general it’s not that hard anyway. A hit? I’m sure in some sort of way but not a HIT. That’s my take, I’ll be glad to talk to you in 2 months and see.

Ger Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 This changes the landscape, Ari to debut at #1 with a risky single. (considering house has never been very popular in the States) 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly think this song was not poised to go #1, but it will still be a big sized hit, like NTLTC and GIAW. That was always my prediction. These tactics are a bit desperate, but she is super close, so I guess I understand wanting to make it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maroonx Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 yoll worry and stress so much. Ari's leading streaming, digital sales and had 3 physical variants being factored in. She will most likely end up with a 5-10% lead over Jack by Friday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildsidenormani Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Need yall to stfu about desperation as if everyone and their mother hasn’t gamed the charts in the last few years. Like damn we get it…let Ariana have her number 1 for a week! 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pride4jc1222 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 I wish Doja had gamed the charts like this with Kiss Me More in 2021. It deserved #1 way more than Butter, Stay, and Good 4 u. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maroonx Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 My points prediction: Ari: - Digital: 25-30K (could end up being more) - Physicals: 15-18K - Stream: ~40m - Radio: ~23m Jack: - Digital: 5-7k - Physicals: <1k - Stream: ~30m - Radio: ~60m The gap between radio will be closed with her sales, as I think she will have a lead of like 40K+ in sales Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone that thinks CS was #1 that week, then by that same argument, LoM is the #1 song this week. You can't have it both ways. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
