We end the work week off right GoJu Nation by providing you with the Digi-Singles chart. Let me start by giving a HUGE GothamJungle apology for being lax in supplying you with this listing. It’s the industry standard and deserves more respect. I’ll personally take a more involved effort to get you this chart more efficiently. Now lets see what we’re really looking at here.
Going over these numbers it’s a safe bet that if you make this top 20 list, your guaranteed a gold single (at minimum). Taking a look at the far right column, the bar starts at 400K & Taylor Swift’s debut single from ‘Hunger Games‘ is easily in that space in a couple of weeks. It’s still a lil baffling that the game has changed that much that singles are more important than albums. But it speaks volumes to how this generation wants to enjoy music. So if you’re keeping score here’s what a successful artist project is today. A couple of singles that move over 1M and an album that does 500K plus. That’s the barometer. So Drake, LMFAO and Adele… load up the tour bus your fans are waiting. I’m keeping it short this week GoJu Nation so you can get at da charts. Have a great weekend and enjoy. 2 to the sky..
Yeah that song that every teenager is singing as their personal theme song…
