Radio impacts Top 10 so much because Levitating Remix still gets more streams than the original, yet only the original is played on radio now. The impact radio has on Hot 100 needs to change. Im not saying that to support Da Baby because this is goodie for his ass, just making an observation.

I thought her team took the remix off streaming services?

Exactly what we choose to play on our streaming service should count more. Anyone can pay someone at the station to play a song every 15mins.

Radio is actually the only edge black artists have on the Hot 100 because streaming is so white washed and dominated by 13-22 year old listening preferences. At least with radio, an artist like Beyonce or Usher who don't have heavy streaming numbers can still compete for the top 10 or 20 with airplay from Urban and Rhythmic stations.

What are you even talking about? Half the Top 10 on Apple Music are black artist…

This is the opposite of reality.

They are disposable pop artists who appeal mostly to white people. I'm talking about black r&b artists with black core fanbases.

Oh I’m sorry, I wasn’t aware that the genre of your music somehow negates your blackness. My bad.
