If he puts out a slighly poppier record this time around he could REALLY break through globally, i think. But    for getting a global R&B hit out of this. Incredible

 Yeah I think they are more poppier tracks like the Dr.Luke/Kendrick/2 Chainz track but he's still doing the  R&B tracks.

and the video for the song is gaining about 500K-700K+ views a day since his death.  I think the song is going to debut huge next week.

 And idk, probably.   
I wonder if it's even getting some spins on radio.

At least he finally got his first hit.

 Shame on him for wanting success and actually promoting his music properly, unlike Britney!
 
Do you think before you type, or? I know you're a bit bothered by the fact "Blurred Lines" has already seen more global success than both of Justin's singles this era, but don't pop a blood vessel over it.

 Not BL and CHU fighting for that #1 spot. 
2. CHU 
3. BL
  
--
 
57. Same Love   
This usually increases at night and during the early morning hours. Makes sense because that's when most stations are spinning it. Can't wait to see what happens when this goes into heavy rotation.

 Speaking of the Clouds song: 
	Quote: 
	
	
		
			
				“Clouds,” by late singer/songwriter Zach Sobiech, appears headed for a potentially high debut on next week's Billboard Hot 100, possibly in the top 20, fueled largely by strong sales and likely increasing streaming activity following his passing. 
 
As previously reported, Sobiech succumbed to a rare and terminal form of cancer on Monday (May 20) at age 18. Prior to his passing, the video for “Clouds” went viral and helped turn the young artist into somewhat of a global role model for others battling serious illness. Earlier this month, several stars recorded a tribute clip set to “Clouds,” featuring, among others, Ashley Tisdale, Colbie Caillat, Anna Farris, Jason Mraz, Sara Bareilles, Jenna Fischer, Rachel Bilson and Phillip Phillips. 
 
Because of the nature of the single (released on the non-profit Rock the Cause label and distributed by the Orchard) and how coverage of and continuing reaction to his death could impact its reception, forecasting digital sales for “Clouds” this week is difficult. That said, based on early sales data from industry sources, Billboard projects that the single may sell more than 200,000 copies  this week (ending Sunday, May 26). Sources suggest it moved more than 30,000 downloads on Monday (20) alone, the day that Sobiech passed away. 
 
Projecting streaming activity is also complicated in this case, although the song's video is clearly a major element in its profile. As of this posting, YouTube views for “Clouds” stand at 4.7 million worldwide. (Note that the Hot 100's weekly formula factors in only U.S. streams over that week's tracking period.) 
 
Airplay is not yet a factor in the song's chart fortunes, as it's so far received only minimal radio spins; just six of the Hot 100's approximately 1,200 reporting stations played it in the past week. (Again, it's not being promoted by a major label.) Notably, with Rock the Cause based in St. Paul, Minn., Adult Top 40 panelists KSTP (12) and KTWN (7), both in Minneapolis, lead in plays for the gentle folk track in that span. 
 
Combining the figures above, “Clouds,” currently at No. 1 in the iTunes Store, is likely headed for a top 20 debut on next week's Hot 100. 
 
Highlights of next week's Hot 100, including Sobiech's debut, will post on Billboardbiz next Wednesday (29).

 200K for Clouds is what I had imagined. It's starting to free fall a bit, so the projections could be lowered.

 So, after nearly 2 months of release, the dust has settled and it seems a victor has emerged. 
 
ITunes Hip-Hop/Rap 
147. Work - Iggy Azalea 
 
Meanwhile, "Yung Rupunxel" by Azealia Banks is nowhere to be found.

Posting in the thread to ask about him and waiting for somebody to answer: 11 minutes 
Typing "Zach Sobiech" in Google or Wikipedia: 30 seconds to 1 minute
 
Mess....   
Doing the latter makes too much sense it's unthinkable I guess.

 I know it's been almost 24hours since you had to put your two cents thirty minutes after I had said something last night, so it would really be nonsensical to drag you on this topic since it's been too much time between then and it would only go through the air in your head... but I will say it didn't take me eleven minutes to look him up, it did take someone eleven minutes to respond to my post and attack me just like it took you thirty minutes to attack me as well... So before you get the big head you hoped would give you some sort of pride at seemingly dragging me, why not try seeing me as an equal instead of some "no-name-nobody-with-a-stupid-to-me-comment"...
