So BBHMM is a buzz single, she'll probably drop AO next week which would be a Wait Your Turn / RR situation. She probably wanted the first live performance of AO to be at March Madness festival....we'll see what happens.
if the April 7th date means anything, i think it's the release of AO not the album. I think the initial plan was to do a dual release of BBHMM and AO but it BBHMM holds up, I don't know what they're gonna do lol
mess. the iHeart radio awards end at 11 pm EDT so she'll have at the least an hour of increased sales before the Billboard deadline. hopefully she performs halfway through the show and overshadows everything
Apparently Pop radios are not spinning BBHMM and all dropped it today.
Not surprised, the song is not CHR/Pop friendly at all even if it is Rihanna. I remember Adele's Skyfall also having a deal on its first day and it only peaked at #37 or #38 on CHR/Pop. I expect a pop single, AO or something else, soon.
