Btw I just wanna say that if she released 'Whip It' today, it would have flopped. Radio doesn't use that kind of music anymore, so she definitely doesn't need to make that kind of music anymore to get hits.

Basically

Radio stopped using generic dance music in mid to late 2012.

Only EDM songs (like Clarity) are played on radio. You see how Live It Up by JLO did

It wouldn't flop. It'll just do moderately well like Right Now(she actually could be slaying if she did a video/promo).

It would flop, in all seriousness. However, a moderately well in successs Dance song can be deemed a flop by some. Even the Navy are calling it a flop. But that's neither here nor there.

BAAB was the real last song of that caliber to do well.

Well of course it would flop. It's from an album that came out in April of last year plus that type of music died.

Okay she NEEDS a Top 10. But if she doesn't that means its a flop??? Think logical for once.

It would flop on radio yes. But with the video streaming and stuff it could do well on Billboard. For Nicki's status, what would be a flop?

It's not that. That type of music is literally not played in the US like it was from 09-12.

Question. What's more successful?

A song that went Top 10 and is Platinum or a song that peaked at #11 (like Girl on Fire) but is at 2.8M downloads?

Both are good, I just mean Top 10 in general, don't take it so literally.

See people who don't follow charts would think that if it didn't go +2x Plat, it's a flop.

You have to realize that charts are unpredictable in 2013. You cannot tell me that you would've believed that Robin Thicke would've had the most successful song in the WORLD just a few months ago.

Robin's had a string of Urban AC hits, but this was his first Top 10 & first #1, and it's literally a multiple-format monster.

Just in time for September.

I love to sit back & watch you guys discuss & debate. I enjoy other people's opinions on these type of things.

Very educational & informing. Carry on.

Tbqh, I don't fully understand the politics of charts. So therefore I leave it up to you guys to elaborate & help me understand it all.

How cool. It would be nicer if you kept watching without commenting though.

Mike Will Made It followed Nicki

If Nicki released High School in 2010 it would of been a hit.

It would've been one if she released it in 2012 too, lol. Instead she made it her 8th single. It did nice though.

Yeah i agree.
I knew it wouldn't have been a huge single for Nicki because it was her 8th single. She should of made it the 1st single for TRU...

If Nicki hadn't made so many bad decisions during the PF:RR era, she'd have a lot more power behind her name.

*sighs*

HS could've been a hit this year, but you know....
