Why can't they at least send the song to pop radio asap? Like they send some songs too late, which is just useless imo. I can understand them sending the song on different dates, but so far apart is ridiculous! So it's not only pop radio's fault, but sometimes also the record labels.
For example, The Motto by Drake:
November 29th - Rhythmic & Urban
April 10th - Top 40/Mainstream
No wonder it didn't make the top 10 lol.
But we've got the streaming included in the chart now, which seems to help 90% of the hip hop songs. Rack City and ****** in Paris would've charted a lot higher if streaming was included back then.
Hip-Hop song with a good meaning. 
gonna be a tight race 
I don't know if it's better downloading it now or waiting for it to be higher.
