Two reasons why DIL entered the top 10:
- Jay Z & Bey, the urban power couple.
- Streaming
If it was Bey alone or with some other rappers, it would've flopped harder than the Titanic. |
Jay-Z has little with the success of this song. On the contrary he had a negative effect, his ''Eat the cake Anne Mae'' line almost caused a backlash. Beyoncé's sole urban power was enough to push it to where it is today (see LOT,Party,Diva,Ego etc.).
Streaming is the biggest market in music industry today, so that takes nothing from the success of the song. Hopefully, Partition will take advantage of it, too.
Youtube streaming, urban/rhytmic airplay and average sales will build up some points until pop picks it up and GP buys it and stream it on Spotify.
