Do you feel #Beautiful should've united with Mariah's 18 #1's to form her 19th #1?

Food for thought.

Flo Rida or Pitbull??!

They both are the best and you can't deny that

Bill, we have recently seen that certain artists (such as Katy Perry, Rihanna, Bruno Mars, Maroon 5, Justin Timberlake, Adele, P!nk, Lady Gaga, and perhaps a few more that I'm forgetting) are able to easily achieve consecutive top ten hits. A few of them, especially Rihanna and Katy, have shown the potential to have 5-7 top 10 hits from one album.

My question is, when an artist of today has the opportunity to have 1.5 to 2 year massive eras like Thriller and Rhythm Nation 1814, should they:

A) Attempt to have a long string of big hits that could lead to large album sales and add to an artist's legacy
or
B) Keep the album era short and sweet, and release only 3-4 singles, to maintain a steady record for the album and to avoid any risk of overexposure?

Bill, do you think that Madonna would still be a radio favorite had she never released the song "American Life" over a decade ago?

i dont think that song really hurt her that much in the longterm. i certainly suspect that if you surveyed radio programmers today, most wouldnt even be aware of the minor controversy. i just think she need to release bigger hits that are more in step with whats on radio if she wants to be on radio. i suspect strongly she'll get another turn in the sun, if she wants one.

Do you think streams should count towards album certifications at this point?

Bill, considering Justin Timberlake's videography, do you think Timberlake is deserving of
The MTV Video Vanguard Award on August 25? There's been quite some talk about it.



...Vin

Yes, that one.

I have another question do you know if tomorrow we can expect another batch of mrs Carter show world tour grosses ? for the last couple of weeks we haven't gotten any new numbers , but many of Beyonce her peers have new numbers.

Very interesting thesis there. I still think it's her age and the stigma of her being an '80s-'90s artist that's probably hurting her in today's radio climate, much like Cher, Janet, and Kylie Minogue.

When Mariah was SLAYING while being on top of the charts for 16 weeks with "One Sweet Day" did she have any competition? Or was it a "Blurred Lines" situation where it was the biggest song out by a HUGE margin?

Bill in your Opinion... Who do you think is the BIGGEST POPSTAR in the world?? Rihanna or Lady Gaga?

[ozlovezashlee]

Welcome to the family Bill!


Quick question, could you tell me where Ashlee Simpson's current US sales stand? It's okay if you inflate them.

[keshaspearsxo]

Hi, what's your opinion on Ke$ha?

Do you believe she has the star power / good enough material to have successful hits again, and that her labels bad decisions are at fault for her recent underperformances?

Yes, he is.

Bill, do you think Chic have a great chance to finally be inducted to the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame next year thanks to Nile Rodgers' production on Daft Punk's smash "Get Lucky"?

[satellites.™]

Bill, Ive always wanted to know what rank Beyonce would have been on the Billboard Top 10 artists of the 00s decade if her and Destinys Child were counted as one act?

[iHype.]
