US Charts Discussion (Part 4)

Kesha's personality comes through loud and clear on her records, just as much as Pink's does.

It's just not to everyone's taste. And Pink makes dancy rock too.

I would like to see Kesha ditch the autotune for once.

thats her whole career

but I said it could be marketed in a different way. her persona would fit even better with a rock edge.

This year will be hot, too many people are releasing new stuff!! GaGa should throw her bomb right before the AMAs (which usually takes place in November), that would perfect for her!! OMG!! I can't wait, let the slayage begin :Gaga:

Well. she'll be in Latin America for the tour.

I wonder how Xtina's new era will fare.

:deadbanana: How did Cher Lloyd rise so much? Did she have some promo or something? I didn't realize she was anywhere near the top 100 on iTunes.

Dear God, it seems like this fall is going to be VERY competitive, we are expecting new music from:

- P!nk (well, the song is out and will be for sale on itunes soon, let's see how it debuts, I expect this song to very well here, very commercial).

- Ke$ha (Seeing that none of her songs have failed to reach the top 10, and both her lead singles got to #1, she is serious competition).

- X-Tina (It's a Max Martin track, he's a very commericial/popular producer, but she seems like less competition since her only lead single to go #1 was Genie in a Bottle and NMT peaked at #23 and Ain't No Other Man peaked at #6).

- Rihanna (I don't know about her, but apparently many articles state that Rihanna is recording with Red One and Calvin Harris and tons of commercial producers, if she releases a song this year, it can do VERY well).

- Gaga (If everything is handled correctly, she can definitely get a #1 debut).

- Shakira (She isn't as predominant in the US as the artists mentioned above, so unless her song is very commercial, she might not do so well, her last lead single peaked at #32.)

Damn, I'm quite excited! :excited2:

Don't forget no doubt

[Ozzy8923 9]

Don't forget no doubt

Right! Well, they don't seem like much competition since most people of this generation have no idea who they are. That doesn't mean that they won't do well. But, I just don't view them as big competition against all these other artists.

Very good debut #'s.

[jhonyguy04 3]

i hope no doubt flops out of the way!!

How did Cher Lloyd rise so much? Did she have some promo or something? I didn't realize she was anywhere near the top 100 on iTunes.

Something I've observed over the years is that songs usually make a dramatic jump once they enter the top 20 on Pop Radio, or not long after. It varies sometimes, but overall it's pretty consistent.

:clap: So happy for them

I was one of them 235,604 :hor:

I wasn't. :teehee:

[Arturo 40,746]

I wasn't.

They don't need you.....

But that is a great debut for a band that doesn't have a huge fanbase.
