And has 900,929,0778 streams on Spotify ALONE. Can anyone explain this? I fw the song but this is some Adele, Taylor Swift esque longevity for a song that was a minor hit when it came out

It’s a timeless song. All there is to it

Classic song

I don't know anybody who doesn't love that song. Gets played in any scenario

It’s an absolute slapper and W of a record I’m afraid

just a cool ass song

Pity Cole streams

Cole perfected lounge rap

Really good song that everyone knows and loves. Beat is one of Cole’s best, niggas really say man’s can’t produce smh. Uncle Phil and Jada/Will line’s classic plus it got more traction when entanglement happened

Glad it’s this and not wet dreamz

Song was not a minor hit when it came out, stop thinking the Hot 100 is law

Classic record.

everyone irl loves it because its a great and iconic song

only rap nerds chronically online hate it let alone that whole album

I was in college and that s*** was massive

probably the number 1 song id see drunks at parties stop whatever theyre doing and start screaming/chanting to the most.

Thank you this song was and still is huge , these chart watchers don’t know what a real hit is

Fr, song was huge when it came out and it still is

I still randomly hear it on the radio, and I rarely tune into the radio lol

They’d probably say Faneto wasn’t a hit either because it never charted

where were you in life december 2014?

NPCs going brazy

Charts do reflect a songs popularity to an extent whether you like it or not

It reflects an artist popularity. Not necessarily a songs popularity.

I would argue no one cared about Bauuer when Harlem Shake hit number 1 I know there’s more examples but that’s one

it's an amazing legendary song and i'm not even the biggest cole fan

And no one cared after. Which is the point. That specific song sure was a hit but most hits is just the single a popular artist chooses at the time. You rarely get hits that bubble up that are completely organic.
