A week ago a lot of songs were negatively impacted quite a bit but Try wasn't and had the biggest update if I believe (can't remember). Therefore, this weeks rolling for Try was compared to a good update from last week, whereas a lot of other songs had good updates today because their rolling was compared to a crappy one last week.
Coz before RnB actually got more weight and Mariah Carey's song for example got Pop, Urban, Rhythmic, HAC, AC and Urban AC moving....
Yeh weren't the rhythmic and urban panels huge back then? I think they largely downgraded the estimated audience on those formats. So we probably won't see songs challenging these numbers again.

Rolling in the Deep / Somebody That I Used To Know were more recent and bigger I think.

Between pop and urban, yes. Although there was also Super Bass last year, but that wasn't as big on urban as WMN. The last song to go top 10 on both pop and urban radio was 5 O'Clock by T-Pain., Lily Allen, Wiz Khalifa. There've also been songs like Black and Yellow, Down On Me, Look At Me Now, which crossed over a bit to pop radio.
Pop radio needs to jump on Girl on Fire, Adorn or Clique tbh.
