It's a shame about Loveeeeeee Song, but most stations have playlisted it now, I'm not sure if it's worth an adds date.
I think Jump would be the best song to send to urban, but it's a bit of a waste to send it to urban and not to rhythmic and pop as well, since it's a clear crossover hit.
Maybe Phresh Out the Runway? Or they could simply send nothing to the format.
Starships was getting Urban spins last year. I'm sure IDJ can get Urban behind this. Just throw some generic rappers on a remix, and we're chilling.
Where Have You Been managed top 50 on urban mediabase too, but that's pretty much the best anyone can do with a pure dance song.
I think Jump would probably get played there since it's got drums (Right Now doesn't have any), a rap verse, samples Ginuwine and has a slower tempo. It's more urban than Diamonds at least, and that got #11.
It's also produced by Stargate who've had many urban hits before (Black and Yellow, What's My Name?, Irreplaceable, Miss Independent, etc.).
It's probably her best EDM song, way better than We Found Love and this. Even though I've always thought the breakdown on Jump sort of ruins the song, everything else is redeeming enough. I just love the whole build-up and momentum this track creates.
She's making the same mistake as with TTT, Jump is an obvious dance smash but she's holding it down way too long just like with WHYB.

Hmm, from what I understood, L7 hasn't really been that big on radio, but it never really sank down, it just plateaued. I was thinking an actual add date would probably push it well on radio. Maybe not to the levels of "Pour It Up", but maybe 35-50 million AI? idk
I'm kinda hoping that "Jump" will be the 5th WW single after RN in May, and NB in August. It's radio appeal is huge, and with a good video, and maybe a performance or two, it'll become a digital hit.
The thing with with POTR is that, well, I think it's just a little too hard on the ears to be a hit. Sure, it's in the line of songs with Rih's boasting that are usually hits, but I think the opening synth (?) in the song, that's repeated over and over, is just a little too abrasive.
Some of y'all forgetting RN has acclaim. It was frequently referred to as a standout track in album reviews. Plus David will give it good international presence and promotion, especially as he is a Universal Music Group artist now.
