The constant hate towards Daya here

Her EP is so amazing. Can't wait to hear the full album

[alexanderao]

I wouldn't say Daya has more potential than Zara at this point simply because she isn't being marketed anywhere close to as much as Zara is. Remember that Daya was independent before Hide Away became a hit, while Zara has been on an Epic U.S. contract for over a year IIRC and been pushed hard in Europe (and moderately here).

Daya has pop radio by her side. If SSLP goes top 10 on that chart, which is possible, she'll have 3 T10s there in less than a year. Weak sales kept the peak of Hide Away down, but now that SSLP is discounted, if its streaming improves -- Hide Away went top 15 on Spotify, so I have no idea why SSLP can't -- it has a great shot to outpeak Hide Away.

Daya vs. Zara


The mini Meghan vs. Ariana?

Daya is the singer-songwriter HAC bait type ala Meghan...while Zara is more of the popstar with big producer ala Ariana.

[Tylerbv]

Daya sucks and Zara is generic af.

I don't understand this "meghan vs. ariana" thing.

Anyway, Hailee's more talented than any of them.

Travis Scott's album is out. Another ( ) AM exclusive album.

He has all the banners, while BEP got some little ones.

How could Daya be considered a pop girl when she's extremely local and she's just getting moderate success?

I wouldn't say she's on track to becoming a major pop girl either.

I mean, I did say that as well.

Daya US Peaks:
3. Don't Let Me Down
23. Hide Away
29. Sit Still, Look Pretty

Zara Larsson US Peaks:
13. Never Forget You
75. Lush Life
N/A Girls Like
N/A This One's For You

Looks like one has a better track record than the other. Sure, Zara may have it going on in Europe, and imo, that's where they should be trying to market her instead of trying to forcefeed her to the US.

Make way for the new Queen

Halsey US Peaks:
1. Closer

This is amazing. Even the video is good.

You can tell Pharrell worked on it (outside the vocals)

[Cz!]

^Yep. It has Pharrell written all over it.

-

1 The Chainsmokers - Closer (feat. Halsey) 1.0000
4 Major Lazer - Cold Water (feat. Justin Bieber & MØ) 0.2703

And some thought ML had a chance...

Major Lazer could have gotten a week at #1 if they had waited until the week "Cheap Thrills" was taken off of its discount. But there was no way to predict that, I guess.

They also missed their shot big time by (still) having not released a music video for the damn song. Oh well. They had their chance and they blew it.
