It's really interesting to look back, critics said Ke$ha was a one hit wonder when TiK ToK was released.
However she has deliverd, catchy as **** singles. Her Hot 100 chart performance has been very solid and she sells millions of singles even as the underdog.
To compete with Rihanna the same week and outsell her and have a better first radio week with less available radio formats is impressive!
The same is true for Rihanna when she released Pon De Replay
Diamonds deserves more success than die young.. It's way better + die young is a huge disappointment for me. I try to get into it but I can't. There's nothing original about it the lyrics + beat feel so recycled. I'll wait for supernatural

This is not the Diamonds vs Die Young thread.
Catch My Breath has a radio deal or not? Predictions for radio?
I say:
Pop: Top 10
HAC: Top 3
AC: Top 5
but i hope for more
The same is true for Rihanna when she released Pon De Replay
Yeah, she really took everyone by surprise. "Pon de Replay" seemed like such a one-off.
Nobody, and I mean NOBODY thought Ke$ha was a one-hit wonder. Dr. Luke was at the helm of her entire debut. There's nothing profound about the success of her singles.
