    I just listened to Rockstar for the first time and it’s honestly a generic song

    It’s super poppy generic gangster rap song for white frat boys

    tik tok*

    Yea it’s not particularly exciting but it’s had a surprisingly organic rise compared to a lot of other songs recently which is why I think a lot of people itt like to see it doing well

    Yeah these overtly trash tax tics just making number 1s lose their value

    Knew the rat and Nicki had some finesse planned lmao

    Pop artist been doing this s*** for so long , why do y’all care more about numbers than the actual music. Timeless music always wins , when it’s all said and done.

    Yea it’s just disappointing to see Billboard fail to take meaningful action

    I hope at least that they’re figuring out implications of some sweeping changes cause this year has been a f***ing mess

    • Radio needs to go
    • change the sales limit down to 2 or even 1 per person
    • remixes need to go
    • playlist curation needs to be investigated and thought about

    I hope you had the same energy with Taylor Swift and all the other pop artist or even Travis Scott with astroworld. I can tell your young so you weren’t around when labels purchased 100k of cds, this s*** been going on. Who cares if he goes number 1, how does it affect you lmao. You making money off of him not getting that spot ?

    this is a numbers thread discussing numbers

    They clarify that many of the bundle sales may not be recognized in the end, but looks like Trollz will go #1.

    For what it’s worth I’ve been saying this for years now
    I’m well aware of labels tactics

    The irony of you saying why do I care if he goes #1 while also caring if he goes #1

    His streams were shocking,and this push is only cause of the remix.
    His staying power is zero I wont be surprised if this plummets faster than gooba.
    A lot of songs rising big on the charts

    He has no integrity lol. He'll do anything to get a #1 song while failing to realize that doesn't change the public's perception of him as an artist. Prince only had 5 #1 hits but many of us know him as one of the top dogs along with Janet, Mariah, Whitney and Michael even though they all had double the amount of #1 and top 10 hits.

    I'm sick of artists no longer wanting a legacy to be left behind them. They just want big hits. I know it's always been this way with only a few who really wanted to be legends and influence future generations of artists, but it's too crazy now. IMO he is the worst of them though. He doesn't care if it goes #1 then drops off the whole chart and not due to it being a seasonal song either, he just wants to #1. I do hope he doesn't get it Savage remix or Rockstar can take that spot away from him.

    Well, he's just a troll. But before this song, all the others were fun.
