As for radio, I agree that a lot of stations aren't embracing the single but the ones that matter are. Z100 in NY and KIIS in Los Angeles are some of the most influential radio stations in the country and 4 Minutes has been doing phenomenal on there. A lot more stations are starting to follow in their footsteps. With the video, upcoming promo tour, and the maxi single with all the remixes still due for release, we have a lot to look forward to cause she ain't going anywhere.  |
I hope that's a sign that it'll be a successful album in the US. But while I prefer 4 Minutes to Touch My Body, I think Mariah might have an easier time getting a hit album in the US. I'd love to be wrong about this and Hard Candy to be huge everywhere, but I'm being cautious with predictions despite that promising digital #1.
