Interscope didn't do it for Judas when it initially came out and thus it only debuted in the top 25 two weeks later (even though it would have easily debuted in the top 10). Yikes i didn't knew that before there was love there was silence Share Link to post Share on other sites Facebook Twitter

It's not an unbiased party, especially considering that it's only international artists that suffer endless certification droughts. Locals get their songs certified really fast. The German music industry is horrible tbh because everything is a total mystery and run by a single company I've met several people that work for UMG in Germany and let me tell you, they are so biased.
