172. Love Me (feat. Drake & Future)- Lil Wayne

9 months later and still selling, close to 2 million and this was Wayne's last single released to iTunes. His digital power is still there

Depending on how well HO,WGH does after the video comes, he could sneak in there as well.

I don't feel HO,WGH like #1 single, more like a blocked song.
Drake doesn't have #1 single right?

This is his first single that is having broader crossover appeal than any of his singles so far. It's headed straight to #1 on Urban and Rhythmic for sure, and I think it'll pull a "Take Care" type run on Pop. Urban AC may pick this up, too. His only limiting factor will be sales. Top 5 is a huge possibility, though.

He does not have a #1 single as a solo/lead act.

I'm not surprised. It's got 90's throwback teas which Pinoys thrive on.

The choir at the end >>>>>>>>>>>


After seeing Drake pull it off during his VMA performance, I really think if he promotes the song enough, it could get a push to #1.

He's on course to score his first top 10 hit as a solo/lead act this afternoon (UK charts). A video before the album release could give it a final push.

I can also see Justin releasing "Cabaret" (drake feat.) as a second single before the album. It's a track i'm quite looking forward to, and will give a massive boost to both 20/20 & NWtS.

But it certainly isn't a "huge flop" either.

There have been several posts saying "wait and see, it'll take off" or "it's still top five on iTunes, where the haters at now?"
I really like Applause, actually, but several of the monsters need to realize that it's not taking off and that it's just a moderate hit. Underperforming for Gaga's standards.

[MusicTalker]

I hope Berzerk has some legs in the Top 10. He should premiere the video next week.

and where are those people that called applause a flop and bet that it would drop out of top 10 on itunes a week after VMA??

after a week, it is still on top 5 now with VMA effect ended.

I was betting it would be out by mid september. It's half way there.

i feel like Avicii is slowly coming to snatch gagas wig

[Rigalo]

Drake COULD pull a Rihanna and go number one in the next few months if there is not a mega smash around by then. (Huge airplay and good but not great sales)

HOWGH seems like a Top 10 staple but not a hugely strong seller. Maybe album release will have similar boost that TML's release gave to FYL.

Yep, HO,WGH has crossover appeal and getting 3M updates right now, definetely vying to become Drake's biggest hit in his career

On ITunes or the Hot 100?

I can see Britney topping ITunes, but it won't go #1 on the Hot 100. Honestly it might be Rihanna'a single after she releases her music video.

That new update tho
