rolling US charts 2008/talk about "pop" here

if you guys want, I can start posting the actual Hot 100 data straight from Billboard, so that you don't have to grab it from some random site that has the same annoying glitch (LOLLIPOP = A Milli/ LOLLIPOP REMIX = original versin of Lollipop) in it every damn week.

90 78 JANET CAN'T B GOOD

^^underrated jam

one of many underrated jams on the album. '2nite' is especially great.

Thing is they have it a day before billboard does. We are some impatient, non-glitch-caring-about MFs.

ya that's the reason why i was asking

i love that new brandy song.

a few things:

- it would be kinda cool if they started playing swagger like us on the radio even though it is pretty lame
- anyone know how savage/soulja boy got hooked up? savage is now out on tour with him
- 12 8 T-PAIN CAN'T BELIEVE IT <---finally
- it appears that the strategy of taking "american boy" off itunes didn't actually work?
- how are tokio hotel "famous" in this country?

-i hear "swagger like us" (ugh I hate that the official title spells it "swagga") on mix shows a lot, pretty sure i've heard it a little in regular rotation too.
-who?
-zzzz
-"American Boy" went back on iTunes after 2 weeks of the strategy not working.
-Tokio Hotel aren't really famous/popular in the U.S., I think MTV just worked really hard to pretend or anticipate that they would be.

52 48 SAVAGE FEATURING SO SWING

savage is a rapper from new zealand and this song "swing" was featured in a scene in knocked up (when seth rogen and the other dude meet the girls at a club, iirc) and then a few months ago it showed up on itunes as remixed by soulja boy and now its in the top 50 and savage has signed to universal. no idea how any of this happened.

-Tokio Hotel aren't really famous/popular in the U.S., I think MTV just worked really hard to pretend or anticipate that they would be.

i pretty much figured this

after "Paper Planes" A&Rs just started combing all Apatow movies for any other international artists to break in the U.S. urban market

yeah but i should note that "swing" was a #1 in new zealand in 2005 (hit #81 in the US) so this soulja boy remix is happening 3 years after the song hit and almost a year and a half after the movie

well i wasn't being serious but that is interesting. haven't heard the song, though.

its actually pretty good! the original sounds like "tipsy" though i haven't heard the remix

"Paper Planes" getting play on the hiphop station here now

the blatant rihanna knock-off Shontelle is doing well I see

-hopefully Brandy rises again next week since she just went for adds at pop... I love that song it deserves to be a hit.

-poor keri :(.. "energy" also deserved to be a big hit...

- YAY @ 93 55 JAZMINE SULLIVAN BUST YOUR WINDOWS

- eugh @ T.I. ending Jazzy's reign at #1 with that awful single of his...

"love lockdown" will probably be #1 next week

Not neccessarily. It's not getting much airplay at the moment.

dude, it's #3 this week just off the strength of showing up on the iTunes store last Thursday, and has been topping the iTunes chart for the past few days since then. it's going to be #1 next week, no question.

Okay, didn't realize that. I don't look at the itunes chart at all, and didn't know it had a shortened week last week.

51 49 LUDACRIS CO-STARRIN WHAT THEM GIRLS LIKE

i really like this song

mehhhhhhhhh

I'm pretty sure at least a third of the songs on the R&B 100 right now include the words "it ain't trickin' if you got it." God I'm sick of hearing that phrase.

i meant to ask which song got that ball rolling? the first i remember is "a milli"

yeah I think it was "A Milli" > "Got Money" > "Can't Believe It" > "Whatever You Like" > "What Them Girls Like" > arghwblfndoifdvshutupshutupshutup

pop lock & drop it!!!!!!!!

haha oh yeah forgot about that one

that was my friends ringtone for waaaay longer than it shoulda been

huey's legacy lives on

I wonder if L.E.S. Artistes will go anywhere.

al didn't you write something about santogold on idolator?

i think if anything the song in the new commercial has a better chance of charting than l.e.s. artistes, though even that is probably pretty slim

idk, i guess this is a test to see how much impact 90210 has

yeah, I wrote something about "L.E.S. Artistes" popping up on the Modern Rock chart the same week that "Paper Planes" debuted, but it just dropped right back off after a week or two while the M.I.A. kept on climbing. didn't really strike me as a radio hit, I can barely remember how it goes now.

wait, forget my post. santogold has songs on gossip girl for the past three weeks. she should focus on promoting les artistes (it's the best! also amazing on 90210)

I could totally see "L.E.S. Artistes" as a Modern Rock hit. It sounds like a Yeah Yeah Yeahs sound.

sound song

follow-up: you'll find a way (switch & graeme remix)

the one that sounds like a hit is 'lights out'

yeah i agree about lights out

if lights out was in an ipod commercial instead of a bid lime one it would've been a hit months ago

what? lights out is nice, but it would NOT be a pop hit today.

it's too subtle. "Les Artistes" has the massive chorus.

'lights out' is in the shitty second half of the album which i never listen to - don't even remember how it goes. dunno if they fit into the US pop market right now (would assume they do, really) but the first 5 tracks are all total earworms though. 'say aha' maybe most of all.

Xtina should be top 10 next week since that awful song of hers is blowing up on iTunes... "Spotlight" should make top 20 next week, maybe top 10 because it skyrocked on iTunes as well (I think her whole album is charting actually...)

yeah there's gonna be a lot of turnover soon. buncha new shit in the itunes top 10
