Did Pop and Urban support Congratulations? I remember it having insane longevity on the charts. In fact, isn't it still top 20? EDIT: Nvm it fell since the last time I checked.

I think it'll hit #1 in October after sales stabilize and streams and airplay increase. I think it's between taylor and cardi with cardi having the edge. I hope Cardi can pull 2-3 weeks but if not Lauryn will still have the most weeks as a solo so i wouldn't be mad

DaenerysFenty Posted September 25, 2017 Posted September 25, 2017 Congratulations Cardi you totally deserve it! Lemme go and stream A #1 song
Whiskey Mouth Posted September 25, 2017 Posted September 25, 2017 Congrats to Cardi But honestly hoping “Look” reclaims the #1 eventually like “Shake It Off” did after “All About That Bass”.

It may not be manufactured like fancy but the song has a pop chorus believe it or not. I just meant that the catchiest part and reason why it was a hit was because of Charli XCX. I meant that this is a solo rap song and that's a rap song with a feature.

I think On The Floor went #3 if i'm not mistaken! You're right So only Cardi, J.Lo and Shakira this century. I mean Fergie has Mexicanbut shes equally mixed so i wouldnt call her fully Latina lol Edited September 25, 2017 by ToxicKat

A discount and huge streaming support? I think it takes a while for radio to embrace (some) breakout artists. Hopefully, they recognize that Malone is here to stay + support the song.

Lauryn had barz and vocals. cardi has barz but they are both rap songs LOL i guess the point is that to pretend as if this is not new in this thread because you favor certain artists is apparent. this is what gets done. When Gaga returned to the top 5 guess who were shading when katy failed to reach #1 guess who were shading? to pretend that it's a big deal because people on both sides of the cardi/nicki thing aren't doing it for kiis is just obvious why it's being doing at this point. I'll continue to quote things I am interested in responding to...my point was made and I didn't mean to upset...just stating the truth. I didn't say they weren't rap songs at all, just not fully rapped and you apparently took offense to that saying it was taking away from Lauryn as a legend; it wasn't. Also, disingenuously supporting something just for the sole purpose of passive-aggressive shade is dumb af and I'll continue to address it as such as I see fit, so following my quote trail to whine about that will change nothing. Have a nice day. Edited September 25, 2017 by Ascension

It actually sold a ton for a urban song & has had amazing YouTube streams (over 300M in 2017 alone). White Iverson was big on urban IIRC, so rockstar wouldn't be the first time they've supported him.

URBAN Posted September 25, 2017 Posted September 25, 2017 If she were to stay at #1 3 weeks, she'd have the longest running solo #1 by a female rapper. If she manages to stay at the top next week, she'll tie Lauryn.

But yes both are rap songs one just has singing but both are still rap and I like both. Hooray for me I guess. You shouldn't have taken offense to my correction of your posts because i wasn't being mean about it...just clarifying. I'll let you target others who are disingenuously supporting something because I only genuinely support things. Speaking of which, I wonder how many 4th quarter big releases are going to take place because so many new artist are taking the top 10 by storm but not vets.

But you're right that he probably isn't a real threat next week. As for Taylor, no chance she will come close to Cardi next week. She lost 7.2 million streams this week (45 points) and the discount won't get her more than 25k surge in sales (33 points). It will be a miracle if LWYMMD doesn't continue to drop in points next week.

iHype. Posted September 25, 2017 Author Posted September 25, 2017 Race-based records are too iffy, and can't technically be proven (we don't know if for example 21 Savage is actually fully black, if Post Malone is actually fully white unless we have their DNA results).

I can't believe it omg!!!! queens!! and most are supportive of each other she's been with Kim, tweeted iggy last month love them. But legit shooketh at post Malone being #2 I do like the song but wtf I did not expect it at all congratulations and white iverson>>> can't believe this peaked higher. Most of the rap chicks stick together and support one another except for Nicki. Maybe one day Nicki will stop being so insecure and bitter and she can come together and do something with the other ladies
