"Drunk In Love" is doing so well. It really is eating "XO" up.

Can somebody explain to me how Dope went top ten on Billboard? I don't get it.

Something to do with the Youtube Music Festival performance, I think.

I hope they focus promo on Drunk In Love and then switch over to XO once that starts burning out. Or promote both and have a Hey Ya / The Way You Move MOMENT

I remember all the comments when On The IFPI was released, and how everyone was claiming it was the most desperate thing ever and it'd flop


then it became the best selling single of the year!

Tbh JLo would find it difficult to secure employment as a maid, maids tend not to be too beautiful because people want to feel comfortable dehumanizing them. Also the reason why in Latin America you will NEVER see a maid with lighter skin than the family she works for.

Wiki says it had 8.2 million streams, and 33k digital sales.

So why do some songs that sell over 100k in a week and receive an equal amount of streams with massive radio play (Unconditionally for example) fail to go top ten? I'm confused.

Digital sales, plus a lot of streaming points from her YouTube Awards performance. It was basically rigged.

Sad but true.

Besides I could see the dad in the family getting horny around J-lo.

Rih ran to Shakira? Now sis we both know it's the other way round

It's all the same.
DefJam put them together because Shakira needed a radio hit in the US and Rihanna needed a global hit to sustain her till they'd put together her album for her.

The collab was made before Bey her "Visual Album" and the cockiness (I love it when it backfires)

It was made in late October/November.
Bey's album coming out in 2013 was a known thing amongst the top level industry execs (hence Jay Brown moving Rih from November).
The usual pre-album pieces were in place...writers talking about submitting material for Rihanna. The only reason it didn't drop was because BEYONCÉ was initially scheduled for her usual pre-Black Friday date.

His internalised racism. A mess

She doesn't live in Latin America and never has. She's from the Bronx so if she was a maid/cleaning lady it would be for white ppl likely in Manhattan like in that movie she was in

The vast majority of DOPE's streaming (from the YT awards performance) was from teh US.

The perks of being local.

JLo can't even wash her face, let alone a house.

I think they put the Dope performance video as an announcement before the stuff you actually wanna watch and that counted on its streams, but I'm not sure.

I overplayed Drunk In Love. She should focus on promoting XO, which is the superior song anywayz.
