Both songs are going to flop in the long run. Ke$ha should have released "Thinking of You" and Rihanna simply should have recorded better material for her album.

Rihanna is a core artist on pop and rhythmic. Ke$ha doesn't have rhythmic and she lost staple status on pop after "Die Young". Not surprising that Rihanna has better airplay.

My point is that the public's reception to Crazy Kids is pretty good. It has 10 million less people a week hearing it on the radio, yet it's almost 100 spots higher on iTunes.

But the only copy selling anything is her solo version. So other than the music video, I don't see how that means anything. :awkney:

Still a music video (even if the will.i.am version is doing bad)  :awkney:

I think it has more to do with promotion rather than reception. Rihanna's only major spot for "Right Now" IIRC was the NBA commercial which mostly appeals to men who probably wouldn't care for a song like "RN". Meanwhile Ke$ha had a music video premiere and interview on MTV, where her reality show season finale aired the same night.

Public response to either song, sales-wise, isn't that great.

edit also, "Right Now" does not have a video out.

.I know, I'm just comparing hers to Crazy Kids, which a lot of people on here think is flopping for whatever reason.

I thought it was going to be a hit, it sounds like one (to me)

it keeps rising on itunes, but in pop is getting negative AI. it's too early to tell.

10 million is still a big difference, but I DO agree that neither of them look like a sure fire smash waiting to happen. Crazy Kids has the potential to at least be a moderate hit if radio picks it up enough, though. Edited by Klou

Anyway... how did that heinous Jason Derulo song survive past its second week?  :sick: Wasn't it like top ten on radio and it's still a steady top 30 on iTunes?

Crazy Kids probably won't be a hit. If it isn't past 15 million AI at this point, there's no hope for it. It's been "on" the radio for nearly 2 months now.

Tbh i'm happy Rihanna is flopping with RN (or at least for now)

 

It's the worst song on Unapologetic she had sooo much better material but her team decides to release RN :fail:

Numb, Phresh Out The Runway, Lost In Paradise, Nobody's Buisness, Jump, What Now  are much better

Wow, I'm now addicted to Blurred Lines. :music:

 

No wonder it is smashing all-over the place. This bop could be the most selling digital song all-time, well even if that will make me delusional.

Yes, she still is. Her single "Everything Has Changed" with Ed Sheeran is moving up in the HOT 100, as it jumps from 91-79 this week. While 22 has finally left the top 20 as it slips down to #32 this week.
