Drake’s ‘Hotline Bling’ Aims At No. 1, And Misses. Why?
What if the next step in the evolution of memes is to bring them to life?
The “Hotline Bling” video originally debuted on Apple Music, due to the exclusive deal Drake inked with the company.
Explaining that her roommates helped make the video, Carolina says on Tumblr, “I’m just happy that it got people laughing and smiling and that it’s getting out there”.
Summer Heights is a mockumentary show along the lines of The Office.
It seems inevitable that the hit would dominate charts around the globe, but for Drake, the Billboard 100 is the one chart that really matters. It’s a picture of Tyson on the phone with the words “you uthed to call me on the thell phone” that Questlove happened to post on his Instagram account. While Apple has been eager to promote the hell out of its new streaming service and use its founders’ industry clout to reel in popular artists like Drake, the company was slower to move on one minor detail: sharing its video view data with Nielsen Music. It is now at Number Four in the United Kingdom and Number Two in the US. Her single Hello has already smashed the record for the most views in 24 hours on Vevo, and is likely to jump straight into the top spot next week, once again ahead of Drake.
“I have never had a Billboard number one”, wrote Drake on IG. He even gets up and starts singing AND dancing.
