Yay for Adam almost breaking top 100 for all genres. I hope he does. None of the other songs nor the one with Vincint did that so it will be nice if this one does.

He's so close to breaking 100 in all genres! Could happen at any time. Hope so. It's been quite a while since one of his songs has climbed so high. Love that song's rapid-fire lyrics and strong hook. It deserves to be there. And hope to see it climb higher in pop, too! He must be thrilled!

I said yesterday that Billie Eilish's song "Lunch" (that someone said was very sexual but I haven't listened to it) was charting on the itunes chart for alternative. And her new album went #1 on the rock and alt charts for Billboard. She is neither a rock chick nor a rock star but I will not be surprised if she is nominated and wins a Rock Grammy. Rock doesn't have the competition that pop has. But I swear, either Billie is brilliant or her team and label are. I'm not in awe of her talent or her singing but for someone so young, she has made some smart choices with her career. 2 Oscars, several Grammy awards and other awards in pop/rock/alt for singing tho she mumbles. And I know you can't accomplish all that without a major label behind you. However, it is amazing that with her limited vocal talent, she has so much cred and will one day be viewed as one of the great music artists of her time. She may not be better that others but she is certainly more strategic than many. No wasted or missed opportunities. Sometimes it is hard to understand why some are rewarded with so many award opportunities while others are not. But it is impressive to see someone who is serious about their music and knowing when to change things up to their advantage. And knowing when and how to avoid Pop where Taylor is dominating is a plus too. HA. I wish that when Adam was with a major label, someone would have been wise enough to give him a chance for radio play in other genres and a chance at winning some awards. Imo, he probably could have won a Grammy or two in Rock if he hadn't been limited to Pop for all those earlier years (when he was with a major label and on the radio). But those radio days have long passed so he might as well do the dance/EDM music that makes him happy. And I hope this song breaks the top 100 in all genres. But he is really enjoying himself so good for him.

But he is really enjoying himself so good for him. Guess that is why she didn't come out as "bi" until last year. She already had her followoing. I have to say I do enjoy some of her music, but not all. I guess I shouldn't, but I do resent some major artists come out after they have their awards and following. Who would have thought 7 years ago that Demi Lovato was LGBTQ. They didn't live through the "cr@p" that people like Adam did, yet they are reaping all of the rewards. |
