Seven Hundred and Seven Inexplicable

In January 203, Justin Timberlake and Jay-Z's single "Suits and Shoes" was officially released. The two superstars at the peak of their popularity collided with amazing sparks. On the Billboard Singles Chart, the highest ranking came To the third, a good start for Justin's brand new solo album.

In July 203, the single "Holy Grail" jointly released by Jay-Z and Justin Timberlake was officially released. , To achieve a win-win situation, to seize the upper hand at the topic level.

At present, "Holy Grail" has only been released for three weeks, and its rising momentum on the Billboard Singles Chart is very fierce. It was eighth last week and seventh this week. The evaluation of "Suits and Leather Shoes" is still above that of "suits and leather shoes", and the prospects are generally optimistic.

Now, Justin Timberlake teamed up with Bruno Mars and Ronan Cooper's single "Classic" quietly on the line. Even if professionals didn't think so, the majority of netizens couldn't help but put all the singles that Justin collaborated on. Compare them together to see which piece performed best.

What's more, the release time of "Classic" and "Holy Grail" is so close, and there is even a possibility of a head-on confrontation, the people who eat melons are naturally excited.

This can also be regarded as a small extra point of view, not a point of view——

After all, even if Bruno and Ronan teamed up, it would be difficult to match Jay-Z's status in the industry, and Jay-Z no longer needs a ranking on the Billboard Singles Chart to prove himself. What to say; besides, "Holy Grail" is now at No. 7, which is already a successful single.

To be precise, the real opponent of the "classic" is someone else:

One Direction.

do you remember? A day of love and resentment between the King and One Direction.

In fact, to be precise, the two bands have nothing in common, no connection, let alone any festivals. It is a bit reluctant to say that it is "grievances", but entertainment reporters are like this. If there is a problem, they will break the news. As far as manufacturing issues are concerned, even a little bit of it may not be missed.

The beginning of the story is the midnight party of the Grammy, which has nothing to do with the will of the king for a day. A series of misunderstandings occurred because of the breakup of Taylor Swift and Harry Styles, and then Ronan made a move to save Taylor. There was a brief head-to-head encounter with Harry, and a seed was planted.

Then there was the three-finger salute at the Coachella Music Festival, which was supposed to be the moment when the One-Day King wrote a miracle, but for some unknown reason, the melon eaters didn’t know the One-Day King at all. They thought it was another idol like One Direction The group, the absurd actions of fanatical fans after abandoning their reason.

That is to say, those ordinary listeners who are not familiar with music hot news, take it for granted that One Day King's popularity is just another idol band, and equate One Day King with One Direction in a daze; but the problem is The thing is, One Direction's ardent fans don't like the connection, hate it, even.

In the eyes of fanatical fans, One Day King is just trying to use One Direction's high popularity to gain fame, and they can be said to hate it.

As a result, a scolding war kicked off like this, which is a natural disaster for the one-day king, but it is also a negative impact that must be faced after winning attention. Z is no exception, as are Kings for a Day and One Direction.

Even, the gossip between Ronan and Taylor made matters worse. Many One Direction fans believed that Ronan was the third party between Taylor and Harry. As a result, Harry broke up heartbroken, which also made One Direction Those middle school and elementary school fans hated Ronan deeply.

And then... there is no more.

The follow-up of the matter can be imagined.

On the social network, there are quite a few voices who "hate" the King of the Day because of One Direction, but there is really too little intersection between the two parties, and there is not much room for those hate speeches to ferment, so there is no further Diffusion spread.

Now, the intersection appears!

On the same day that "Classic" was launched, One Direction also released a brand new single, "Best Song in History". The social networking platform deeply felt the madness of the fans, and there was even a network jam at one point, and the fanatic fans poured all their enthusiasm into it. , eagerly looking forward to the success of One Direction's new single.

This is the first lead single of One Direction's third studio album, and it also means that the promotion of the band's new album is slowly kicking off. Naturally, the fans are very strong and burst out with incredible energy. The number of downloads in one day has reached the top of the list of major digital music sources without any suspense.

One Direction is undoubtedly the pinnacle of idol popularity around the world. Their huge fan base draws attention to their every move; Trending topics on social networks take their place.

Bear the brunt of it, it is the complaints and suppression of the fanatical fans of One Direction - they don't care what Justin and Bruno are, anyway, Ronan is their enemy, as long as they stand with Ronan, they are their enemy, whether it is Anyone, they all attack without thinking.

In their eyes, there is only one goal: to crush the opponent.

"The best song in history" crushed the "classic" in all aspects, from sales to topics, from evaluation to popularity, fanatical fans spontaneously launched attacks.

Attack is also heat.

However, "attacks" are a small part after all, and the main group that constitutes the popularity of "classic" networks is still from supporters.

The fan bases of Justin and Bruno are not inferior either. Maybe these fans are not crazy or impulsive, but their support and support are down-to-earth; at the same time, the same is true for the rising popularity of the king for a day, and the enthusiasm of the knights is even more Not to be underestimated, these voices are the workhorse.

Waiting for the "best song in history" is a group of relatively limited but irrational fans; waiting for the "classic" is a group of relatively rational but broad-based fans.

As a result, this "inexplicable, unexpected, and unnoticed" confrontation quietly kicked off. Instead, it became the talk of the people who eat melons after dinner. Even the entertainment reporters also cast their eyes, curious about this Where will this "meaningless" extra showdown go.

"U.S. Weekly" just watched the excitement and didn't mind the trouble, and Dadi posted a small survey on Twitter:

"If you could only choose to buy one of the following three singles, how would you choose?

A, the Holy Grail

B, the best song ever

,classic"

The investigation just came out, and the fans of One Direction were blown away, cursing and swiping votes quickly, the votes were quickly separated, and the proportion of votes for option B was far ahead; at the same time, no one expected This is how a showdown kicked off.
