Beyoncé has a new single...…….. then they play Crazy In Love. It's very annoying. They do this with every female singer over 30. I could go on and on by the way. Jennifer Lopez has a new single...….. let's play Waiting For Tonight. Huh? Oh look. Britney has a new single...…… let's play Oops! I Did It Again.

Who Is That Girl? Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 It's hard to keep up and understand the truth about this single with so many varying opinions. There are Madonna fan pages and groups on Facebook claiming the single is a failure because it hasn't hit the top ten in a traditional chart sense and that radio is not playing the song period while here the opinion seems to be that the single is doing quite well with streaming and that it hasn't been given to radio as yet and that the strategy is a slow build? Does anyone know if the song has been sent to radio? Is there an embargo on playing until a certain date? Does anyone know why Madonna and her camp have been so quiet since the single release, promo wise? Is this part of the bigger strategy? I would LOVE Madonna or her camp to give us an insight into their expectations in 2019 at age 61 of the singles market and her performance, I get the feeling NOW that Madonna understands based on her Billboard speech the 'turning water into wine' days regarding hit singles are no longer plausible. I also doubt Madonna and her team are sitting with fingers crossed watching the numbers roll in after the release of the single, I am just very curious as to what occurs behind the scenes based on expected outcomes. Is the plan for this single to float around as it is currently without promotion, Madonna could very easily pull a publicity stunt to draw attention to the song but alas she is very quiet for a superstar with a new single out? Is Medellin the pre curser or warm up for what's to follow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V.K Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 The Spotify streaming numbers are actually great for ANY new song and pretty fucking impressive for Madonna , who is not 16 ,neither 26 not even 36 and started her recording career in 1982 . Let's not lose perspective . A song doesn't have to go top 10 to become a hit these days but to stick around . It will be included in all these playlists till next Friday , at least which guarantees a healthy stream average per day to keep some momentum going If Madonna's gonna have any type a hit it'd surely be a sleeper one, at this point so patience guys , please . By the single roll out they have mapped out it looks to me like her and her team agree . All considering , I think this single has organic success than any of her previous two lead singles .

Is Medellin the pre curser or warm up for what's to follow? To answer your 2 questions the song has not been sent to radio yet and it only dropped on Wednesday Madonna is launching the era next week with the unveiling of the music video and then we will get 2 months of promo until the album is dropped in June. It's only quite for literally for 1 week as Medellin gains strength online and then the promotion starts. I don't believe for a second Madonna was referring to her days of having hit singles when she made the quote about turning water into wine in her Billboard speech but I understand somewhat your comparison. Madonnas expectations in 2019 in my opinion are as strong for success as they were in 1989 with Like a Prayer, that ambition to deliver her music to the masses is just as strong. I have never believed the nonsense about her not caring about the charts either from some fans. She is a mainstream pop star who is up against it due to age and the fact she hasn't been supported correctly by her current record company but that said here she is as you say of the eve of 61 with her most modern and up to date promo strategy, if she or her team didn't care about the charts or having an impact on the modern musical landscape then Madonna wouldn't of hired Maluma for a start. I disagree that her team are not watching the numbers. Of course they are I do believe the new PR firm and some of Madonnas conviction is to do with this over interscope. I think she has seeked out new blood but I do believe the team care remember her future tour revenue depends largely on Madame X connecting where RH did not. Its only floating around for 1 week and then the promo starts plus there's another few songs as previews on iTunes and at least one other single that has a video already shot we no nothing about yet. Plenety still to come I think the expectation is through the roof and it's all to easy to judge quickly when the Madame X era hasn't really begun yet. She hasn't even made her first official appearance. There is a mega campaign about to be unleashed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you stream for 10 times consecutively THEN alternate and have over 10 counted? 10 times per account per day - they look at the total number of streams from your account in a 24-hour period, but not whether they were consecutive etc. Whether you stream it 10 times consecutively or listen to it once ever two hours, the tally is still the same.

Who Is That Girl? Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 And so it begins.... Ok guys, its Monday morning here in Australia, news on in the background and I hear 'Madonna Flops' a full news report dedicated to Madonna's flop new single Medellin reporting that the superstar's new single has been a disaster on radio, iTunes and streaming services. This is the problem the media gets hold of it and runs with it then it becomes a snowball. I dunno disappointed to say the least, but expected I guess. This would never be reported about anyone else however, goes with the territory. Please don't shoot the messenger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Google him, but don't comment on him in here (it's just for your own background info). He was positive about Rebel Heart when it leaked, but other than that, he has done everything he possibly can to drag Madonna down throughout her career. He focused solely on the single's US performance in his article and failed to mention that it had reached #2 worldwide, #1 overall in Europe and #1 in 20 different countries (because it didn't serve his purpose, which was to trash Madonna).
