@Hollister The song was released less a month ago. It has more airplay than I'm Out. And it is doing better digitally. I actually just heard the song for the first time a few days ago. You right a song off as a flop too early.

Fff sorry. My sarcasm meter has dwindled a bit since I've been on this vacation.
You see, the thing is, you're right. Airplay is what we were looking forward. And we were.
Certain people want certain things from their songs. A song can go Top 20 and not even have sold 300K, but since people these people can't comprehend a chart, all they can see is a peak, so they go with that peak.
Digital sales in 2013 are down. They're the lowest they've been in years, which is why it takes longer for a song to hit Gold, Platinum, and so on.
With that, it's all about streaming in 2013. And PROMOTION. I'm Out peaked at #15 on iTunes the week it came out. LM #14. Love More is doing well. So that's another story.
All songs are different. Tapout's longevity is amazing. Just a simple Urban song with longevity.
I don't think it's
fair to write-off GLM. People in here wrote off Tapout (not Hollister) when it was in the 330's on iTunes for weeks & weeks after it's iTunes premiere. It only rose with airplay. I remember it vividly too. Some of y'all wrote the **** off of TO because it was like in the 330-340s for a good three weeks.
But that's irrelevant. I personally wanted these features to help her Urban airplay. It dwindled in 2012, but rose again this year, but I digress.
WE NEED VIDEO SOON!!!!
