artists who fall off never fail to make their fall ever steeper

She should go the Miley route and make Bangerz ™

I love Gaga but she needs to sit this one out.

Ariana already took that lane for herself. she saw the downfall of pop music early

yep

the fact that artists like drake, trav or future never really needed a huge pop feature to become huge has to hurt the pop industry

Streaming = consumer demand.

Maybe there's some group think involved or programming because of playlists. But it's the closest 1-1 representation of fans that music has ever had.

These Poop stars really going out sad.

Worst era, 2009 peak of that s***

Now popstars need rappers to get bigger numbers they hate to see it

Bobby shmurda or t-wayne getting top 10 hits with freestyles is beautiful

here is the mind blowing fact: Where do u think March Madness charted?
it didnt make the hot 100 at all. Bubbling under #8

It’s crazy 4 years later it would have been easily top 15 for the quality of the song and the chris brown backflip meme alone.

I love Gaga but

Fr tho. Mad people I used to respect show how fragile they really are when they’re not the center of attention. They’re babies.

Don’t underestimate playlists. Getting a rapcaviar placement will get you millions of streams even if people dont f*** with you that much just like payola did with the radio

she wants the 3 piece drizzy stimulus so bad

She should stick to acting

This. Like how can you “add more diversity to streaming” when streaming is literally listeners picking songs they want to hear and playing them. F***ing dead.

Idgi tho, there ARE playlists for all that. You cant force ppl to gravitate towards a certain genre or type of music, it just happens naturally.

But there are playlists like that for EVERY genre

The reason why RapCaviar is so big and gets rap artists so many streams is that rap is the biggest

She’s Gaga. Can’t get mad at her.

If the people want hip hop they want hip hop. It’s in demand right now, don’t put that blame on the genre

It’s pure entitlement.

Sure it was only an exemple. I mean one playlist can make or break a song just like a radio placement did a few years ago.

Also they have this technique to artificially boost streams where they’ll add a song to thousands of playlists with a few thousands followers

Yeah but you don’t get it here

Sure there are ways to make songs artificially blow to a certain level with streaming, what i’m saying is that those same techniques are also available and often used for pop artists and pop songs. There’s also a s*** ton of methids used to make a song blow on radio that these acts use.

The reason why rap specifically is thriving can’t be attributed to commercial subterfuges since it’s used by literally every genre.
