Katy archived most of her biggest Billboard Hot 100 hits based on discounts and remixes, whats your opinion on that subject?
That's just not true. She may have helped her positioning with pricing and remixes but her hits were his regardless.
I don't have an opinion on artists that do this. Most big stars do. I think it probably makes sense for all involved - label artist and fan.

Fantastic lyricist. His flow drips charisma. I don't think he's moving the form per se. But I think he's probably the best in the game today in giving rap radio what it craves.
Bill, whats your opinion on the Clear Channel deals, and where does it officially cross over into ''payola'' territory?
Is IS essentially, paid-for airplay after all.
Bill what's your opinion on iggy azalea. Started As a YouTube sensation had a couple of moderate hits in Europe and signed to IDJ now. Do you think she has what it takes to finally go mainstream in the US,?
I know you're well knowledgeable about the pop scene and music industry , you're the only one who can answer this question , Where does lady gaga stand in the Pop scene now compared to her contemporaries ?
thanks in advance (if you answer my question of course )

since you're knowledgeable about the music industry and the pop scene , do you agree with the Label that some major publications (such as Time magazine, Forbes , and even Guinness world records) have given to Lady gaga claiming she's the most famous Pop artist , and labeling her as the Queen of Pop ?
you seem to dismiss my Questions is it because they are about lady gaga ?

Tell 'em Bill!
Although, as usual, haters will still dismiss this statement even if it already came from Billboard's Editorial Director himself

I completely agree.
Speaking of YMCMB, do you think Lil Wayne's Tha Carter 5 will garner as much success as his previous TC albums? Do you think he still has a huge public support?
And with Nicki, how damaging do you think Starships/The Roman Reloaded era was to her music success?
I want to ask:
Is it alright to discount your songs in order to get them #1 on iTunes, is it alright to pay cheap rappers in order to give your single more attention and radio support + sales, but is it wrong if you put your fans to watch your video in a playlist?
Waiting for the answer.
What do you think about Adele's music? What do you think about her success in the US and Worldwide, where her sales are amazing for a music market that's not as strong as before?
