You see artists come out of nowhere, get a chart topper because they had a popular song on tiktok and then disappear. The top 10 is almost always a mess, full of unknown names and one hit wonders, it’s just not an indicator anymore of who’s actually having a REAL impact in the music industry like before. Who’s actually a celebrity. But before it happens, they better let Dua get that nr 1 cause she’s been deserving for a WHILE now I agree, and I think this is why we are seeing less ‘legends’ from the current generation of artists.

It seems that covid is not the only pandemic China left us. Just reported you, racist and xenophobic b*tch. I hope @Admin bans you.

That's when record labels were able to easily buy their artists chart positions and radio airplay. The Hot 100 is supposed to represent the most popular song in a certain week in history. So the "messiness" of the chart and unknown name is a good thing because it means these are organically the songs that were most popular this week, not the song from 7 months ago that radio won't stop playing because of bribery. But that is not at all what I meant when I said who is a celebrity, I am of course against paid slots on the charts but the way the system works right now doesn’t really allow for organic hits either, it’s very easy to pay a few tiktokers to get your song to number one or be friends with them to promote what you do. One example is Montero, yes the song had impact, but it was also heavily pushed by the tiktok community to get that number 1, reason why even Nas threw them a party afterwords. So it’s not as organic as you say it is right now either and is NOT at all a good representation of who is actually a celebrity with impact and who just got trendy or ‘got themselves’ trendy through a paycheck or a few connections. And is a song really a popular song if it charts because people jumped on a tiktok trend THAT was popular? The songs are used for those videos not because the song itself matters most of the times.

Aphasic 4,033 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 IF theses "changes" are true, let's hope they are for the best. I wish they'd toughen up the rules to make it harder for hits that last 3 seconds from taking the once renown No 1 on the hot 100 Billboard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerrard174 508 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Honestly with the streaming taking over, it is always hard to have an organic hit, especially if you're big name. Songs from big names e.g. Ariana, JB or with hardcore fanbase like BTS, will always have frontloaded streams. There is no build up / growth path in anyway, unlike radio stations which back then gradually pick up songs (even so, we also had radio deals - looking at you HIAM and BTW) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen 29,409 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 If this is true the timing is ridiculous. They should announce and implement new rules on a Friday when the tracking week starts, not hold up the charts for 2 days while they scramble to finalize their ****. This timing is suspicious as ****. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
