BUMP IT! or DUMP IT!, VOL. 84

[Strong Bump] =Unquestionable Smash Hit.  Extremely rewind-worthy and one of the better records out currently. Next to no flaws to pick out, that you'll be supporting/playing daily.  Something you predict will be a Top-15 Hit or higher.

[Weak Bump] =A Good Moderate Hit.Quality & above average; has more positives than negatives.  Might need to grow on you/others, but could catch on.  Not a clear smash hit, but something you'd genuinely want people to check out, so you’ll be supporting/playing it occasionally.

Something you predict will be a Top-50 hit.

[Weak Dump] =Sup-Par Record.Not bad, but definitely missing the mark somewhere. More negatives than positives. Listenable, as you might like some parts but not the whole composition.  You don’t hate it, and could understand its buzz, but you know you won’t be supporting/playing it much.  Something you predict that won’t be on airwaves very long or have much replay-value.

[Strong Dump] =Complete Trash.  A record you absolutely hate, and has next to no positives at all.  Garbage, and a waste of your time; that you’d want to warn people away from.  Something that you’re sure you’ll never be supporting/playing ever; and predict that it’ll fail commercially.

Now for this Week's New Singles. 

Simple rules: 

As we do every week, I'll give you the Top-9 new singles officially sent to Urban-format radio stations, that are either beginning to chart right now or expected to chart soon. In exchange, you can have & listen to them, and personally comment below, stating if you would *Bump It* or *Dump It* for each record and why... [Strong Bump, Weak Bump, Weak Dump, or Strong Dump] 

BUMP IT or DUMP IT!, VOL. 84:

"THESE DAYS"(Rudimental f/ Macklemore & Jess Glynne),

Debuting @ #31 on Pop formats;

+ Shipped to Rhythmic/Club 04/24/18; 

via Asylum/Atlantic.,

[beginning w/ 1,265 Daily US Spins]. – It’s a safe, and clean pop song. Its good for television, montage, and commercial purposes; but I can’t see it getting a lot of play on urban radio. I don’t think it cracks the top 45. – Weak Dump

"OCEAN"(TK Kravitz f/ Jacquees),

Debuting @ #42 on Rhythmic/Club formats;

+ Shipped to Urban formats 05/06/18; 

via 300/Atlantic.,

[beginning w/ 741 Daily US Spins]. – It’s an attempted slow jam that misses the lyrical mark. The hook, symbolism and wordplay could have worked. The smooth production could have worked, but the lyrics need to be worked out more. I don’t think this will quite catch on, and I don’t think it’ will get enough spins to crack the top 45 of urban radio. – Weak Bump

"DREW BARRYMORE"(Bryce Vine),

Debuting @ #47 on Pop formats;

+ Shipped to Rhythmic/Club & Urban formats 05/06/18; 

via Kiva House Lambroza Inc.,

[beginning w/ 471 Daily US Spins]. – It’s a good pop record, it can be used on a television show or movie or something, but it’s not an Urban radio song. I don’t think this will make the top 45 of Urban radio spins. – Weak Dump

"BEST PART"(Daniel Caesar f/ H.E.R.),

Debuting @ #24 on Adult Contemp/R&B formats;

+ Shipped to Urban formats 05/01/18; 

via Golden Child Recordings.,

[beginning w/ 305 Daily US Spins]. – I really like this song, it was one of my favorite cuts of this project. This might do well on Adult contemporary, but it’s going to take a while to make its way to Urban considering urban radio doesn’t seem to support traditional sounding R&B. If this song charts, it should be in the 30-35 range. – Strong Bump

"THIS IS AMERICA"(Childish Gambino f/ Young Thug),

Shipped to Urban formats 05/08/18; 

via mcDJ/RCA.,

[beginning w/ 223 Daily US Spins]. – I expect the song to do very well on radio, especially after the appearance on Saturday Night Live and the release of the video. It was a very good rollout that has a buzz around him. I expect this to be in the top 10-20 fairly quickly. In all honesty, I like the video but I don’t like the song at all. – Strong Dump

"PHYSICAL"(Mally Mall f/ Jeremih & E-40),

Shipped to Urban + Rhythmic/Club formats 05/05/18; 

via Future Music Group/EMPIRE Dist.,

[beginning w/ 181 Daily US Spins]. – It’s a seasonal record, it’ll do well for this spring and summer season, as its light-hearted and fun sounding. It’s perfect for partying and clubbing. It could possibly chart on urban radio in the 30-40 range. I'm not a fan of the song however, I wouldn’t save it on my  playlist or be super excited to hear it on the radio – Weak Dump 

"CHEK"(DJ Esco f/ Future),

Shipped to Urban + Rhythmic/Club formats 05/07/18;

via Freebandz/Epic.,

[beginning w/ 105 Daily US Spins]. I honestly don’ like the song because it sounds like so many other songs production, delivery, subject and lyrically. It has a shot at radio but it doesn’t stand out. It can work in the club because it’s easily mixable. If it charts top 30-35 range. – Strong Dump

"GOOD TIME"(Chico Benymon f/ Redman),

Debuting @ #42 on Adult Contemp/R&B formats;

+ Shipped to Urban formats 05/01/18; 

via supa Ent/Brownstone Media.,

[beginning w/ 99 Daily US Spins]. – This has a good warm weather, bbq, block party vibe to it. This can do well in the club, it can be used for a happy a season finale on a tv show. Radio should gravitate to this, as it fits the season. It’s a fun record. It has top 30-35 potential. – Weak Bump

"HEREDITARY"(J.I.D.),

Shipped to Urban 04/21/18;

via Spillage Village/Dreamville/Interscope.,

[beginning w/ 78 Daily US Spins].  – I love the song. I think it’s greatest potential will probably be on Adult Contemporary, it’s probably too heavy, complex and musical for most urban and pop radio. But the delivery and subject might open up a door for Urban formats. If it gets on radio Ill say it’ll be in the top 35-45 range. – Strong Bump

It‘s a sub-par week for new singles. I don't think most of these releases will make urban radio charts.
