PeterPan 0 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 4 hours ago, BloodyJudas said: Many of my friends that I have made on this site realize I am quite a fan of Katy Perry and I've always enjoyed her music and persona. Nevertheless, I have been the biggest fan of Gaga ever since 2010 and I am so grateful to have been part of the Monster community. But I need to confess that it bugs me a great deal witnessing how unfairly radio stations and streaming services have been treating Gaga in comparison with Katy. The very first example is Perfect Illusion which sold around 100 k (digital copies) in the first sales week,which is terrific and not many pop stars acomplished that in 2016. Despite the potential the single had , radio stations dropped the single simply paying dust to Gaga. Now "Chained To The Rhythm" is not doing well (underperforming) on Itunes and it has not even topped the aforementioned list, yet radio stations seem to be spinning her latest track like crazy. According to Daily US Radio Updates "Chained To The Rhythm" has already garnered 2059 spins having attracted 18.831 people, whereas Million Reason(the song that has topped the Itunes chart several times) has been out for many weeks and so far it's received 2197 spins and the audience of 8.144. Just saying it is devastating to see how unfairly it looks and I am not trying to pit two women against each other. I wish to point how biased and manipulated radio stations and streaming services are in a way. Katy is not doing that well at all (the same happened with Rise in summer, Birthday and This Is How We Do), but radio stations are licking her boots no matter what. Million Reasons is loved by a massive group of people ,yet they don't plan to give Gaga a chance. Thank you Gaga for staying true to yourself and your art!!! I am in awe of your prudence, determination and perseverance. You are already a legend to me and many people out there. Keep on slaying!!! Radio stopped playing Gaga songs after Judas's release. At least they stopped here. I haven't really heard her songs barely since BTW tbh. Katy was a continued success on radio because radio looks at what is trending althouh I'm not sure why they are playing CTTR, I guess the whole payola thing but a ton of other artists get played on the radio alot too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlaeUrAnus 15,976 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 It's unfair. MR has managed to sustain #1 for nearly a week now, but radio spins are so low. If that were any other song in the top 10, it would have been given plenty more spins I do not understand. I've heard Shape of You, CTTR and IDWLF so many times today and NO Million Reasons. I am so pressed! What did she do wrong? In my messy era. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gardevoir 9,823 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 I don't understand it. She's gained TONS of respect during her whole career, when she performs everyone in the business thinks of her as a greatest performer, not another basic pop act. She did superbowl, have amazing vocals, stage presence, charisma, so why radios pay dust to her music. I don't get it. What do they have to lose? Sugar, spice, and everything nice.
