Indeed

#1 on pop radio (2nd consecutive for Lorde)
#1 on HAC radio (2nd consec.)
#1 on alternative radio (2nd consec.)
#1 on triple A radio (2nd consec.)
#6 on rhythmic radio (Royals got to #2)
#39 on AC radio (and climbing fast) (Royals got to #2)
#40 on Spanish radio (Royals got to #16)

#15 all-time for most pop radio spins

NAUGHTY BOY – La La La f/Sam Smith: 48.225 (+ 0.295)
DISCLOSURE – Latch f/Sam Smith: 14.710 (+ 0.189)
SAM SMITH – Stay With Me: 7.064 (+ 0.465)

All positive! These all deserve top 10, I just hope one or two of these don't get dropped

I heard Iggy's Interview on 107.1 earlier today and she seems so sweet and nice.
I loved hearing her talk! Hope Fancy fuels her success for her era.

TDFW already in the Top 50 most spinned tracks of 2014 and it is just now entering the top 20 on the charts
This could be huge year end

People are always misinformed of payola so I want to just set the record straight. For example people joke about Capital paying record companies to play Birthday. Just so people know Capitol doesn't pay the radio stations anything ever. It is illegal for record companies to pay radio stations. BUT capital and other record labels do pay people who have a contracts with specific radio stations. These people are called Independent Promoters or "Indies" for short.
These indies are hired by major record labels to help promote their artists. The indes are the ones that pay radio stations to add songs to radio playlists. The indies give things like money, vacations, concert tickets, gift cards, or gifts in other forms that they can use for promotions. The stations part of the deal is to add and play the songs the indie recommends.

How does it work you may ask? Let me break it down again.
1.) indie signs a deal with station to give money/gifts
2.) indie contacts record companies to inform them of contract
3.) indie charges record company a fee (usually $1,000)
4.) record companies pay $100,000 to $250,000 to indies
5.) when indie recieves money they then gift the radio stations whom must play the songs the indie recommends in order to receive promotional payments

As a result...
Artists signed to one of the 4 major record labels (Sony BMG, Warner Music Group, Universal Music Group, EMI Reocrds) have a much better chance of being heard by a bigger audience.

Fun Fact: those 4 major labels own 90% of the recorded music market

Nice knowledge about the radio industry especially the record label note!

So the labels are just using a middle man to do their dirty work. BIG difference
KatyKats shouldn't be offended by payola jokes because every artist has used payola. It's part of the industry. And payola doesn't always pay off. We've seen many songs flop despite having a radio deal.

It's funny how a few years back, I jokingly called Katy payola queen and got warned for it, but now it's become commonplace and nobody gets reported for it anymore.
