As long as Lovin on Me doesn't return to #1, I'll be okay with whatever song takes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KatyPrismSpirit Posted March 18 Author Share Posted March 18 30 minutes ago, punisher said: why is his label wasting so much money trying to get #1? it's not like billboard gives them a complimentary 1 million dollars for that feat It's ultimately about recognition. Saying you are a billboard #1 artist will make the price go up for potential promoters / shows as well. And it can help for the Grammy campaign too. Saying you are a Grammy winner for example also will increase your value as an artist. It always comes down to money somehow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on Ariana's points decrease He's top 3 on radio, top 5 on overall streaming and the main version is #2 on itunes so he's still selling even without the extra versions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's two extra versions hardly "multiple". Y'all always overblow things when it comes to her. I'd hate to see what Y'all would say if she pulled an Ariana and yes, and? A song with actual multiple versions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MusicLoverDude Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 It makes sense in this situation because...I only heard who Teddy was because of this so there is no way he had the fanbase to have all the versions bought. I feel bad for him and his team just slightly because they were blocked by the #1 by...Kanye and his current hateful rhetoric song. Ariana is a more respectable person to get blocked by, let's be real. Anyways, Billboard needs to be more consistent. Filtering Teddy and Dua, but not BTS when they were the biggest problem with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dumbsparce Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 If his label, family and friends are the ones buying in mass then what exactly will they be celebrating for in case it reached #1? It buffles me when labels do this. Like, ma'am it's not the people outside this room that pushed it to the top so what exactly are you cheering for?
