Who needs the standard adult R&B tracks when they can just keep using Adorn for the whole decade?

I heard Adorn in a club last night! Such an amazing song.

Adorn is so good. I can see why it gets played so much on Adult Urban radio.

It's crazy how Urban AC radio is changing. First the inclusion of classic rap hits, now songs like "Blame It," "Blurred Lines" and "Drunk In Love" getting massive play. Anyone who has been listening or following this chart for years should recognize the difference.

Probably one thing that made it change faster was that early 2013 time they moved a few urban stations to the UAC panel. I remember because songs like Pour It Up, Started From the Bottom, etc. all went top 50 right after it happened.

I think Urban is coming back to Top 40

That might be one of the factors, but I do think there is something else going on. Adult formats must change over time to fit the tastes of the audience they're aimed at. It's just normal - the circle of life.

True. It explains why the adult pop and adult contemporary stations are starting to trend to more pop-leaning sounds.

For example:

AC
7 = AVICII Wake Me Up 1488 +1 184 -31 11.700 +0.116

when was the last time we've seen an electronic dance song in the top 10 there -- let alone top 20?
