Lol! You'd get a much better response than AdamsGrannies or Cougar4Adam or 80AndProud or OlderThanAdamsMom.
These PD's are forever sucking up to the under 30 crowd. If I see another tweet to Beeber or 1D fans by Q102 I'll throw my monitor out the window :
For most Top 40 Radio stations the target audience is 15-25 -- and the Bieber fans are ignored because they are too young.
It is not a bunch of PDs who do not want older or younger listeners -- it is how radio is organized to sell ads.
The goal of CHR has always been to play mainstream hits and stations base their playlists on what is selling.
People keep focusing on fan age being a barrier. But IMHO that is not the big challenge for Adam -- he needs to prove he has
mainstream appeal. And with the notable exception of WWFM, he has not done that yet.
It is not that Adam is gay, it is that he is an alternative pop artist. Trespassing in not mainstream pop. I am happy with Adam being an alt pop artist -- and some alt pop artists make it on Mainstream Top 40 Radio -- Gaga did it, for example.
I know that Adam wants to have global pop hits and I hope he gets them. But I am more interested in him producing quality music like Trespassing (album).
In any case, I refuse to use Top 40 Radio rank as a measure of success -- because if it is the measure, then Katy Perry is the greatest artist ever and she is not. (And I am a KP fan, just recognize that this is not life-changing music.)
Here is an interesting article about Top 40 Radio from 2010 -- worth a read.
