Calling Superbass rap when is very influenced by pop is debatable anyways. Also, Superbass is a collab, too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biagio2103 4,858 Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 I Like It is probably going to get there before Super Bass as well (currently 9x Platinum since last December), and maybe Girls Like You (8x Platinum since last June). I'm only good at being bad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also WAP is already 5x platinum. It has great recurring stats especially in the US. It should reach Diamond certification later this year or max by early 2022Â Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first verse alone SH*TS all over any rapping in Bodak Yellow and most of Cardiâs career. Just cause thereâs singing in the chorus + bridge doesnât mean itâs a pop song. Cardiâs an amazing artist with an insane trajectory, but letâs not act like when it comes to actually spitting bars and making rhymes sheâs better than Nicki....not gonna convince me otherwise Also, influenced by pop /=/ pop music British social ladies with upturned pinkies, glasses clinking // xoxoTEANUS Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superbass has rap elements but a lot of influence from 2010s pop music. Is a fact. The fact that it has a pop chrus doesn't make it a pop song, you're right. And the fact that it has rap verses doesn't make it a rap song lol. About the past point I'd suggest you to re-read my reply more clearly and see that I didn't claim Superbass is straight pop because is not. But to act like is completely and undebatably a rap song is weird. Btw, I am a fan of neither of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadreMonster 2,584 Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 I was following Cardi on instagram about a year before this song came out. She released it and I just thought it would be another fun song from a lesser known rapper⊠then it suddenly blew up and all my friends were asking me if I heard about her Glad to see sheâs still doing great Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But imo from a sonics viewpoint it IS MORE OF A POP song than a Rap song. Also Wikipedia labels it as "Bubblegum pop,pop rap"  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FKA twigs is one of my favorite singers and she also said how after her pictures emerged and people found out she is mixed raced, they started to label her as R&B wherease before they were just calling her experimental. Not to mention Blinding Light being nomintated as an R&B song. The classification of a song takes into account many things but in the end I really think it should be about the song itself.

Also I was gonna use Blinding Light as an example but I erased it lol nvm you included it . Don't forget Changes being nominated as a POP album by the Grammys Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
