HITS' own Jesse Beer (CliprKid) and Naomi Robin (RockinRobin) jump on the web to discuss the newest adds on the radio charts this week, and you've got an inside look at their chat. Find out what's hot on their radar.
CliprKid: Let’s dive in. What do u think of the new Selena Gomez record? It falls flat to me... it has the potential but then the song never goes anywhere
RockinRobin: It’s a really interesting track and I appreciate how stripped down it is in comparison to her other stuff. Might be too Alt to become a #1 like “Good For You” did on Top 40 this week. Ellie Goulding is also dominating that chart. She debuted “On My Mind” this week AND she’s featured on Major Lazer’s smash “Powerful” which just hit
CliprKid: “Powerful" is a one-listen smash! Almost a million Shazams and Tarrus Riley kills it
RockinRobin: It’s SO sexy. Could’ve been the theme song for 50 Shades. What do you think of her original?
CliprKid: Love it! “On My Mind” sounds like a big record. Already #22 on the Shazam charts and the video dropped today. Also, "Hotline Bling" by Drake, which we discussed a couple weeks ago, has now cracked the Top 40!
RockinRobin: Perfect timing considering his mixtape about eating crab at NOBU just dropped
CliprKid: Btw, since we didn’t get to chat last week, I wanna talk about the new Imagine Dragons song which debuted on the alt charts then. Really, really like the song
RockinRobin: Same! It’s an earworm. I don’t understand why it’s on the Alt rock format though. Should be on Top 40... Bound to end up there soon
CliprKid: Oh I def think it will cross over
RockinRobin: Speaking of weird format choices, did you hear T Swift’s “Wildest Dreams” on Rhythmic? lol.
CliprKid: First of all, I am obsessed with that song. Second of all, its clear that everyone wants to play Taylor regardless if it fits the format or not
RockinRobin: True dat. This has been lovely, but I gtg fast... Happy Yom Kippur?
CliprKid: Good luck!
