    Why do we only do this with eminem? When jay-z or other artist don’t do as well with singles, we don’t say s---. Like jay singles off of 4:44 didn’t do crazy numbers, but I didn’t hear no one say he flopped

    It ROSE to number 2, doesn't mean it stays there permanently. It was #2 again for a while after the SNL performance.

    Because Jay isnt a sell out. He still makes the music he wants and appeals to his fans

    Em makes music that appeals to the top 10 charts (wow wasnt that though). Em makes pop singles to sell records. Jay makes singles that his fans will appreciate

    But this time Em made what he wanted. So those who criticise it based on sales should lay off, IMO.

    Yes I agree. If he put out a Monster 2 or an actual pop song and had the same numbers I would be critisizing but I think the numbers are great for what it was

    I can dig it, and like you said to the other guy, walking on other is definitely at a good spot on the chart for what it was, but his last two first singles I believe he made what he wanted, and they still charted good. s--- I don’t think anyone expected not afraid to do with it did

    Debut at 14, told you all that you were dreaming that it will be top 5. Even my prediction of it being 10 - 13 was wrong lol.

    yes and no, this song still follow the pop formula, Wow is like a poor man version of stan/when im gone etc....
    but I get what youre saying with the beat not being a generic over the top rock pop outdaded beat just so that the cod fans can blast the song while grinding the multiplayer.

    Some MFer said he had sources tell him it did 110k pure sales (downloads.) Only did 64k. That's what f----- up our predictions. Well, it won't stay at 14 for long, he should drop another single at the end of this week.

    Yeah, I read the article. That would normally have been enough for a number 9 or 10 debut if this song had airplay.

    what crazy to me is it's not even top 90 on Apple Music.

    It's almost as if Interscope/Apple isn't promoting this single on purpose.

    Spotify even gave him better placement at 1st

    It's done. It wasn't meant to last long. It was just supposed to hang in there till the album dropped. Now that it didn't, well, here we are.
