I'm of the belief that such a song (that I personally find distasteful) has replay value in rural America. I'd be interested to learn more about the character traits of the people who end up being fans of these pop singles. The artist's job is garner influence but the demographic that you hold influence over also effects your brand's value. Companies pay more for pop radio station ads because the demographic is shown to spend more than hip-hop fans . . . when it comes down to it, a mainstream songs success is about how well it upholds a platform for advertisement (radio ads). So a pop artist would ideally be attracting fans in the consumer class.Every aspect of the music industry comes down creating a platform for advertisers. This is why record labels standardized 360 deals, they found themselves investing in the growth of a brand and their investment is monetized via outlets outside of music that they didn't hold a claim to. The best song for radio is the one that keeps the listener pacified enough not to think, because thinking leads to a higher likelihood of changing the channel which would lower the play retention. That's why the industry has that new program where they don't engage in payola but they will put a single in test rotation through various markets and it's potential is judged by the retention. If your song is the one that people are changing the channel to than you run the risk of lowering the radio stations value to advertisers and your song is quickly removed from air play. This is why radio stations that play local artists do so during a designated time to play local artists, the listener has no familiarity with the song and thus there's a statistically higher chance of lower retention, these segments are also discounted to the advertiser so you'll usually catch the local guys ad who didn't want to pay top dollar for the most effective ad time.
Our society raises sheep, not taste makers. You buy our products. We put Nike shoes on our artist in the video so when we export our American pop music - yes, American pop music is a genuine export that effects our GDP and the power of our brands,so it retaining it's influence over foreign markets has a small part in keeping our economy strong by strengthening the power of our brands when those stars are wearing whatever brand of shoe they're wearing Kim Su-Wong in China sees it on that girl that she thinks of and wishes she could be every time she looks in the mirror and then she is more likely to have favorable thoughts about buying said product
This is how the wheels of the economy spin. The reason a lot of you aren't seeing the American dream is because at some point you rationalized and made the decision that you were content with settling for something that was within reach, in doing so you're now your only outfit of pleasure and feelings of attaining is to buy a product from a brand that you desire. So you've dropped out of the American dream and into the lower realm of consumerism where you spend your earnings on the acquisition of products. Capitalism relies on the investment of private capital with the intention of building a business that employs people and serves a product or service to where there is a demand for it. Capitalism subscribes to no moral code, it is completely dictated by the market. It takes no stance on it's own and operates best when government doesn't meddle in the regulation of it - because most government regulations hinder the opportunity for other capitalists to compete in the market and that results in a monopoly, which is what you recently saw with the epipen. The government, through the FDA has essentially granted them a defacto monopoly

It's a conversation for the elevated mind that's attuned to success, you just look at things this way
I see you have a grasp of what the song is but you're probably overlooking the implications of the song getting those numbers
To explain, this has a direct effect on the direction of the industry. The music industry isn't one that looks highly upon experimentation. It relies on analytical date of songs that were proven to be successful and those songs become the template for other singles.
Example, Eminem's song with Rihanna performed exceptionally well as a single and as a result we essentially get an Eminem/Rihanna collaboration with every Eminem album, that's essentially a sequel to the last one and doesn't stray from the course. Ideally you would listen to either song and confuse it for the other one
