Nah that shyt was hard back in 2006

I gotta go with Lil Wayne Lollipop, Amilli was a strong single but Lollipop was cringey


But the real question should be, which follow up single was better than the debut. I gotta go with J Kwon. Tipsy was cool but Hood Hop was classic

Breh what?

Lollipop put Weezy on the road to Superstardom. The bytches loved it..

Lollipop" is a song by American rapper Lil Wayne, issued as the lead single from his sixth studio album, Tha Carter III.

"Lollipop" jumped 76 spots from number 85 to number 9 on the March 28, 2008 issue of the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Lil' Wayne's highest-charting single as a lead artist, along with being his first top ten hit on the chart as a lead artist. His previous highest-charting position as a lead artist was with "Go D.J.", which peaked at number 14 in 2004.

The following week, it reached a new peak of number 7 on the Hot 100. The single reached a new peak of number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 on April 17, 2008, making it his highest-charting single as both a lead artist or as a featured performer.[11] (Lil Wayne was a featured artist for Destiny's Child's number 3 (Hot 100) hit, "Soldier".) For the week of May 3, 2008, "Lollipop" reached the number-one spot on the Hot 100, his first number one on the chart. It is also Wayne's first number one on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart and the Hot Rap Tracks chart. On the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, it is the first rap song to reach number one since Ludacris' "Money Maker" in 2006. After one week, it slipped away from top spot, but returned three weeks later, making it the song with the longest break in between peaks in the Hot 100 since Usher's "U Got It Bad."[12]

"Lollipop" has become a crossover hit on mainstream radio, as it became his first top 40 hit as a lead artist, entering at number 36, and has so far peaked at number 5.[14] It is his first top ten on the Pop 100, where it has reached number two. It returned to number one on the Billboard Hot 100 for the second time on May 22, 2008.

The song has become a top ten success in Canada, peaking at number 10 as of May 29, 2008, and his most successful song in the UK, where it reached number 26 on downloads alone. It reached number 3 on the New Zealand charts and was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of New Zealand.[15]

In 2008, "Lollipop" was the best-selling ringtone in the United States with over 2.3 million copies sold[16][17] and the second best-selling digital song with over 3.1 million copies.[18]

To date, "Lollipop" sold 4,176,000 digital copies in the United States.[19]



Y'all say the stupidest shyt

 

[Pegasus Jackson]

Coolio dropped Fantastic Voyage and followed it up with "Mama I'm in love with a gangsta"


Yes.. I know County Line was technically the 1st video but that was awhile before the actual album dropped.

 

[Metal Face]

I think Asap Rocky went from fukkin problems to Goldie

Goldie dropped first

that song was way better than fukkin Problems

 

[Yecht]

That bs Drake "I'm Upset" song was the worst shyt ever. shyt was so bad he to play the Degrassi reunion card in the video and nobody cared anyway

 

[Yecht]

Breh what?

Lollipop put Weezy on the road to Superstardom. The bytches loved it..

Also pretty sure Lollipop was the lead single

 

[C-Styles]

you buggin, this was actually a dope record

 

[C-Styles]

I can't believe someone mentioned "Lollipop" the f*ckin record that catapaulted Wayne to SUPERSTARDOM and made sure he would sell a mil the first week every time from that point on. mfs really just say anything

It’s arguable that Lollipop is the best “written” song on C3. Static Major was mad underrated RIP

 

[Breh Obama]

Pick any Nas album

 

[Deltron]

Anything after second round KO from bis.

You lead with that diss..better follow up with something

But if I'm being objective nothing off the album could follow up second round ko as a single.

If he made it his follow instead though..

Whatever RichBoy came with after Throw Some Ds

 

[C-Styles]

Whatever RichBoy came with after Throw Some Ds

"Boy looka here" was a STRONG f*ckin follow up, some would say BETTER than "Throw some Ds"
