So we are not on the same page after PNP's underperformance to work on hit songs (preferably uptempo hit songs) for the rest of this era...how many slow/mid tempo songs do you all want her to release

Yet, weeks later, the song is STILL climbing on rhythmic and urban. The people who said to wait longer because the song hasn't peaked and it has a chance at top 10 on rhythmic, top 20 on urban, etc. are the ones who were correct in the end. The people who were saying weeks ago that the song is over are the ones who are wrong, because it continued to climb after that.

Define large bullet for an official first single from a relevant artist???
People were saying it flopped on itunes however the song not having 100+ spins for consecutive weeks was even more concerning and people didn't understand the difference between PNP's spin increase and bullet increase.
Then when the spin gains and bullet losses were going on people were concerned coupled with the itunes position then you had subject matter experts claiming all she needs promo blah blah blah and that she is gaining nicely and that people don't know how radio works.
ALso, people were predicted that it would go top 10 on rhythmic and on urban too.
Now, we stand with PNP at 11 on rhythmic with two songs plummeting from the top 10 but
scrrrrr 2 songs right behind PNP are not only doubling the bullet but also the spin increase and bullet increases as well so it has a chance at top 10 when it is either 19-11 but people were saying it would be there.
I really hope that it manages to at least get top 10 because i was one of those people as well.
Urban well it's clearly hovering outside the top 20 so those saying top 10 or even top 15 were a bit overzealous. I know I've overestimated a bit too.
In conclusion, I like the debate but please don't think I didn't notice how you decided to leave out top 40 in the conversation...there were discussions initially before its add date, after its add date, before its 2nd add date and after its 2nd add date was removed.
Lastly, I was one of those people on the positive side; however, the point I made was that I remember that people were jabbed at for having concerns early on and when the updates declined about its end result...and they weren't exactly wrong either
Healthy debate but you don't want it with me
Tsuko you brought back my dissertations and I'm elated.
