No, there are many artist that are played on the radio. There are very few artists that have 2 songs in the Top 40 at any given time, and the Top 40 changes every week. In the Top 50 on CHR at this given time, the artists who have two songs are Drake, Adele and Rihanna. That means there are 47 unique artists who are on the Pop chart at this time. In the Top 20, there are seven first time artists who are enjoying their first taste of success on the pop charts. If you add in the Top 40 on HAC, Rhythmic, and Urban stations- you would have closer to over a hundred unique artists who are being played on radio at the current time. The statement that it is the same 10-20 artists over and over being played on radio is simply not an accurate one. Radio play is not on its way out anytime soon and it certainly has a big role currently in what makes or breaks pop stars. jo: Just saw the news about Sonisphere. That sucks!  I still think Adam is doing great,in just a few years he went from being a chorus boy to look where he is now. I guess it's all relative but I refuse to think Adam is anything but super successful and I'm afraid that BTIKM not getting the radio play it should get song's fault or not, is not going to change my positive perspective. As far as how many artists get decent radio play ,how many don't .. do you have those figures? Success is measured in different ways, Adam has a wonderful career in the business he loves,He has a boyfriend who loves him supportive family,friends and millions of fans around the world.NOT BAD HUH.. Just saying. I think you might be misinterpreting the discussion of radio trends and numbers for something that I'm not saying. Discussion of numbers is pretty analytical, not overly emotional. (That is probably why it has it's own thread.  ) I don't believe the main posters in this thread are saying that Adam is not a success in any way, just that he isn't having a ton of success with his latest single- especially on the CHR charts. Posts discussing the actual numbers aren't saying that Adam isn't talented and doesn't have the drive and ability to be highly successful this era. His first single isn't doing as well as some of us had hoped for , but we aren't being all "doom and gloom" about everything. |

3 or 4 years is a long time in the pop world. Adam is already 30 years old and that's when a lot of pop artists start to fade. I suppose he could be like Josh Grobin and just sell albums to his fan base, but that's not what Adam wants. He wants Katy Perry like sucess so those singles are very, very important and if his next one does what BTIKM has done, he probably will be very worried as will I. I do think Adam will always have some type of career but I think he deserves worldwide fame and success based on his "IT" factor and massive talent. I just want what he wants, and that's hit pop songs of which he only has one so far. Not men. Just the ladies fade at 30. But that isn't even happening now. PINK, Kelly, Fergie, Britney ..... all still going strong! How about Madonna who is heading the charts as we write? |

Thanks for your answer,makes me feel better  |

IA totally however I understand the confusion because many posts that are focused on gloom and doom and more more about emotion than analytics have started popping up on a daily basis here as well. For me personally I'm interested in the numbers and some analytical context. The feelings they engender and guesses based on these feelings about Adam's future? Not so much. But I'm in a minority so I scroll a lot. |

But I'm in a minority so I scroll a lot. I can see that, but my original post that mellimom was responding to was about the number of artists who are played on the charts at any given time. There was not an ounce of emotional content in my post, nor was there any reference to Adam's future. IMO, an emotional response about Adam's life, love and career just didn't match up with my original statement. |
