Now, let's see where it debuts (Coming soon)

[TheGentlePlayer]

Well it's #29 on ITunes now, so the song will fall quick if they don't perform og promote it soon

[Sukot]

They only reveal the top 10 (and sometimes one or two positions outside the top 10) on Wednesday, and then we get the full chart on Thursday.

I'm 99% sure My Life won't be top 10 this week, so I think we'll most likely find out its position tomorrow. Hopefully it gets top 20, but I'm not even certain about that tbh. It needs more airplay. Rhythmic radio is going to support it loads, but urban radio will ignore this song.

[Sukot]

It's not as simple as just adding the numbers, and they also include streaming, VEVO, Youtube, Internet radio, etc. in the Hot 100 too.

If the song gets good pop airplay, it's likely to peak probably around March time next year (songs take AGES to peak usually). If it doesn't get any pop airplay, it'll probably drop out the top 100 in a couple of weeks never to be seen again.

So the key is radio support.

[TheGentlePlayer]

Yeah, it need radio play, but it need to sell well too. Really hope they will perform it on saturday

[TheGentlePlayer]

Not just radio-support, even know it's the most important factor.
A rapper doesn't simply make a hit because radio stations support him, rappers do a lot of performances, go on radios, mention the song whenever they get the chance to, use songs for ads...etc
If 50/the label thinks the song will be a hit on its own, well..that's not gonna happen.
He needs to make moves or else everyone will forget it ever dropped...like what's happening to it now, it's free-falling.

And I was saying add them together because they're the biggest factors affecting charting and whatnot.

This. Maybe tweet one more time about the song and promote it more.

[Trimss]

Rev.. I've been dying to say it to you.

It's not "Even know" it's "Even though"

[Arrinef]

its currently playing in san antonio, the beat 98.5

but then again texas is full of stans

[Amaranthine]

I haven't heard it on the radio (although that's irrelevant because I don't listen to the radio anymore) but it's doing extremely well on Spotify.

[PAINKILLƎR]

Heard Adams hook on tv during some basketball highlights, but that's it. Not much radio play for My Life in L.A. radio.(although that's irrelevant because I don't listen to the radio anymore)

[Amaranthine]

^Then they were wrong. It's "even though".

[kkaniff]

its just getting promoted on RR.

[Francesco]

Now dear fransesco...please tell me how is this gonna go at least 3x plat

Ok I told you to get a helper but you just won't listen, so I'll help you out... go back to my initial post & re read 'cuz you keep on been ridiculous.
The post is still there & what I said is it will go AT LEAST platinum for sure, & yeah it's going there as we can see its first week sales are great.
Then outside of the facts I said my prediction is gonna be 3 X plat eventually which I still believe in considering the way Jeremiah & 50 eventually went 2 X plat with ''Down on me''
So since this time you didn't act like a butt hurt moron but just asked me normally instead... I said this is gonna go at least plat & it's going there for sure, as we can see it did 140k first week while you said flat out ''THIS IS A FLOP'' which obviously looks ridiculous right now... so be a man & see who was right & who was wrong.
On top of it, in your next post back then you told me to let you know when it goes platinum, I promise I'll let you know about it too.
By the way if you want to keep on going with the debate let me know if you still think THIS IS A FLOP & if you still think I was wrong saying it'll go AT LEAST platinum.

On topic... I think it did great first week considering it virtually didn't have any promotion after the 50 & Adam live show. I personally think it'll bounce back when they start promoting it again.

Then outside of the facts I said my prediction is gonna be 3 X plat eventually which I still believe in considering the way Jeremiah & 50 eventually went 2 X plat with ''Down on me''

I don't think this song will be anywhere near as big as Down On Me unfortunately.

The top 12 on the chart this week is:

1. Rihanna
2. Bruno Mars
3. Ke$ha
4. Maroon 5
5. The Lumineers
6. fun.
7. Phillip Phillips
8. Flo Rida
9. Ne-Yo
10. PSY
11. Alicia Keys
12. will.i.am/Britney Spears

If the will.i.am/Britney song only got #12, 50 Cent could miss the top 20. Apparently his streaming (Spotify, etc.) is great though, so fingers crossed that will help a bit.
