Just prepare yourself for a slew of "pressed" "We bad, u mad" and "gigglessssssss"

That's true, but I think billboard needs to change the rule for the billboard hot 100, cause it's not fair, I think it should be 55% sales and 40% radio
But it's not surprising to me what Radio does to Pitbull, all his past hits struggled with airplay in the beginning, but his digital sales were always excellent. Even give me, hey baby, international love and i know you want me took 6 months to take off on the radio.
The dude is always underrated but I'm glad he always ends up in the top 10 on itunes and always with minimum airplay,
it seems like he has no fans but I know that he has lots of secret fans out there.
Now let's see what happens,, on the weekends Pitbull tends to increase hard, so I hope back in time can survive this week in the top 10 again.
Back in Time better than Where Have You Been? It's all about opinion, but, I prefer WHYB. It's crafted much better....production wise, vocally, and the clever use of a sample, one that if I can recall was very popular back in the day. WHYB is genius, and it's only a matter of time until, the US catches on. The song is much more infectious, it's something you can sing a-long to while driving in the car, and shake what ya mama gave ya in the clubs. It's easily, one of the most standout tracks on radio atm, what else sounds like it?
