Why did J.Cole "Miss America" single flop?

[NikeAirMax]

It's a street/promotional single, the song wasn't intended for commercial audiences. It hasn't been released to radios and as far as I know they aren't making a music video for it. It's just a song to start the promotional process. Heck, he even says "they won't play this on the radio" in the song.

If you were referring to the quality of the song itself (which it doesn't appear that you are from your opening post), I think it's good. Nothing special though.

There have been plenty of up lifting, empowring and deep Singles that have been huge Hits on the Billboard Chart some have even reached number 1 like Not Afraid, Changes, Lose Yourself, Juicy, Sing For The Moment, Brendas Got A Baby etc so that argument is pretty silly.

Currently, Miss America peaked at #34 on the Hip-Hop/R&B charts..

I wouldn't say that's a "flop", it's just not a mega-hit..

Either way, I don't really give a fuck. I fuck with that song regardless..

who's Kendrick Lemar? lol

who's Kendrick Lemar? lol

Someone who's debut Album is a million times better than J Coles debut Album

Obviously talking about the official hot 100 Billboard Chart which is the 1 that matters

fuck all this flop or not shit either you liked the track or you didn't.. none of us work at these labels. workout wasn't flop but the song is garbage. that's just how it goes sometimes. Niggas trying to analyze and break shit done like you know what is and isn'g gonna be a hit based on your musical acumen. i liked the track

I think on the low (at least in my case) people wanna see J Cole do good and make better decisions musically. Dude has a lot of talent, and is great for hip hop, especially in this current state, It would be a shame if he fades into obscurity simply cuz of poor single choices.

I agree about Work Out being garbage and that was a Pop song but i think thread starter made this thread saying he feels it's no surprise Miss America flopped cos he feels it was a wack song so he pretty much saying that but giving an example that others think it is wack too which is why it flopped

Obviously huh?.. earlier you said Brenda's Got A Baby was as big of a success as Not Afraid by Eminem.. LOL GTFOH. Don't try to troll me..

Edit: all the charts matter.

I liked the song and copped it on itunes. That's all I could say about it. Fuck a single, all I care about is if the album's gonna be good.

Its ironic you magically make this thread after the latest thread about big sean and how his songs aren't on the hip hop charts either. Like big sean j cole has to prove his consistency on album tracks.

Big Seans Album was decent and his Detroit Mixtape was good

i agree about deriot that was a dope mixtape but his album was subpar compaired to his previous work. plus his personal performance in his album was terrible. He need a dream team of artists (who were hot at time of release) to save him on nearly every song.

Now big sean says he didn't have control and everything okay thats fine...but all summer he claims he has more control and Detriot was an example of that control even better. Flash forward to the actual album single Guap and that shit was a poor mans version of mula. now the album is pushed back.

That song is dope but, it's a buzz single not a radio single

It isn't a catchy record, it's a dope song though

No i didn't i said they were all Hits on the Billboard Chart but some had reached number 1 even. But all of them made an impact peaked on the Billboard Chart never said they were all as succesful as each other just that they were all Hits that were deep, uplifting Singles

 

[DOPEdweebz]

I reopened due to so many quick (and logical) responses, even tho i think this is borderline trolling, and this is coming from someone who thought J Coles last shit was overrated as fuck. Continue...

[just.might.b.ok]
