LOL poor Troy Carter. I thought he was a genius who could make anyone happen? At least Gaga dominated for 2 years and was the industry's biggest money maker until she completely lost it. Now he's stuck with that chubby Morgan??? one-hit wonder whose time is already up and is producing shows for flop R&B artists like Tamar Braxton. I luv it.
I recently started listening to oldies and mixed-AC stations, and it's really clears up which pop songs are likely to stand the test of time. You hear artists like Pink and Katy Perry all the time. I've heard some of Gaga's lesser hits, like Alejandro, numerous times, but never Poker Face, Just Dance, Bad Romance. I hear Single Ladies, Halo, Irreplaceable, Crazy In Love. Plenty of old Avril Lavigne, Adele, etc.
I have never once heard a Rihanna or Britney song after about 5 months.
Taylor is inscrutable. She's played more than all of them, but it's her current singles. At least her country hits are a safety.

I heard Gaga for the first time ever on AC the other day (PF). Probably because of Tony Bennett.

Those are core artists on the (H)AC formats, though.
I mainly hear Gaga ("Just Dance," "Poker Face," "Bad Romance") and Beyoncé ("Crazy in Love," "Single Ladies") among the main pop girls.
My HAC station even plays "Lose Yourself" from time to time.
Chris Brown will outlast Rihanna. In fact, he already has.
This only shows that the state of r&b music is so crappy that basic forgettable songs from an artist that struggles to even go gold on albums is top tier.
Why can't r&b have quality anymore?
90s r&b >>> hell, even Usher and Alicia in the 00s>>>>>>>everyone's fave
The #1 song on pop radio has an audience of 110,672,000.
The #1 song on urban radio has an audience of 29,925,000.
This is like Demi stans saying that she's more relevant than Miley because Demi is bigger in the busted-ass Latin American markets than Miley is in America.
I guarantee you that more people hear Rihanna on the radio each day than Chris.
Yeah I mean Rae smurder???, Nicki minaj and Beyonce get #1s on urban as if they are serving classics and such.
It only proves the state of r&b and hip hop is just so crappy

The fact that Miley Cyrus did this for W magazines latest shoot and no one cared:
She really is the young version of Gaga, as in, they're both over. Shock can only get you so far before people stop caring. Miley Virus desperately needs that VMA hosting gig for relevancy just as desperately as MTV needs her to make the VMAs not a complete bore this year, since no good music came out in 2015.

Honestly, I think had Miley cyrus just had a sexy mature look with songs like Wrecking ball and Drive and such she'd actually serve Katy/Taylor radio domination but she grossed everyone out with that tongue which confirms her breath stinks and her boy chest and caved in butt.
No one was here for that.
I don't want to serve pedophile teas but didn't she used to have bigger breasts...lost that with all them drugs.
Amy whinehouse teas
Are A-list directors/producers lining up outside Julianne NoMoore's house offering her meaty roles? You would've thought an Oscar (even one given out of pity) would have improved her pool of roles to choose from, no?
I never hear them. I've heard "Toxic" once since it peaked. "Umbrella" maybe 2-3 times.
Weird, they play them a lot in HAC/old and current hits stations where I live. I heard Paparazzi the other day but besides that I rarely hear Gaga. I don't recall Beyonce being played at all either.
