Justin Bieber :: The "Believe" Era

by **Nackar** » Tue Apr 03, 2012 6:40 am

Jesus, how on earth did Flo Rida EVER score such enormous numbers? :lol:

Anyway, great news for him! It's probably number one then.

by **Mokichi** » Tue Apr 03, 2012 6:42 am

We can say that the number one is locked :lol:

He deserves it! Congrats

Wow congrats Biebs!

And I just read from Pulse that "Boyfriend" is being played in 18 Urban stations and has a 3-digit number bullet in Mediabase Urban! 8-)

JUSTIN BIEBER - Boyfriend: 53.418 (- 0.884)

rolling effect, this definitely saying that he didn't had the deal.

by **FadingLight** » Tue Apr 03, 2012 11:57 am

Oh my god, is this really going to debut at #1? :-?

by **Nackar** » Tue Apr 03, 2012 11:58 am

Really? THAT was the rolling effect?

Jesus, that's insane.

by **truthless** » Tue Apr 03, 2012 11:59 am

We will see next day

by **Nackar** » Tue Apr 03, 2012 12:02 pm

Right, I figured it was unreal. But if it's already decreasing BEFORE the rolling effect... that's not a good sign, is it?

by **FadingLight** » Tue Apr 03, 2012 12:03 pm

^ sorry if it has already been asked, but the rolling effect is today or tomorrow?

Edit: ok, I missed a post

by **samra** » Tue Apr 03, 2012 12:08 pm

Today was the 8th update so rolling has begun. But expect a positive increase tomorrow since his first update was:
+ 9.665

and his second update was:
+ 5.739 (15.404)

If that's rolling after a 9M update, this song can do big things.

Pop Songs

Debut/Greatest Gainer No. 20 "Boyfriend" Justin Bieber

Billboard:
Bieber's "Boyfriend" launches at No. 20 with 3,961 first-week plays on 129 of the chart's 134 reporters (an average of 31 plays per station), marking the best first-week plays sum for a song by a male artist in the chart's almost 20-year history. The song also ties for the seventh-best positional start among all acts in the tally's archives.
The arrival of "Boyfriend" is all the more impressive given Bieber's track record at Pop Songs, where the teen star has yet to log a top 10. Despite his sales success (8 million albums sold, according to Nielsen SoundScan) and high social media profile (19 million Twitter followers), Bieber has charted only as high as No. 14 with debut hit "One Time" in 2009.

"Boyfriend" is set for a likewise lofty launch on the Billboard Hot 100 this week, aided by approximately 400,000 first-week downloads, according to industry projections. Check Billboard.com Wednesday (April 4) for the earliest highlights of the Hot 100 and Digital Songs charts.

Hope not...don't like him at all, but the song is good. Anyway, I prefer WAY than this

by **FadingLight** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 11:59 am

520k + 55-60mill of airplay vs 400k (max) + 135-140mill of Fun.

I love WAY, so I hope the streaming is hight!

Last FM <3 · by **nickf1** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 11:59 am

I don't like the song either, but he definitely deserves that no.1, when u look at all those radio updates without the deal and downloads. Huge fanbase!

Website · by **Gagich** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 12:01 pm

With Bieber`s tremendous fanbase streaming does not have to be a problem, right?

by **samra** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 2:04 pm

Yay, I was right! Tomorrow will probably be another smaller positive update. Probably around +1.000.

And he sure does deserve to debut at number 1. We may finally have a male pop star to go up against all of the female domination that has been occurring for the last couple of years.
