tbf, it's not even a majority of peeps here who do things like that. and pointing out that radio and advertisers are going for a specific demo so why not play into that is not inherently ageist. it's unfair but it's just how advertising in chr radio typically works.

not lady r but anyone who has studied advertising knows that beyond typically the 18-34 demo is the one focused on and is why they report shares for it for radio and television

this is off generally speaking and excluding target advertising of other portions

And what has this got to do with Adam? Why are the fans here so delusional with saying, Adam's older fans are what is scaring radio away from playing him? Hmm...there is someone from that same AI demo called '- Stefano.

Look here, radio play has little to do with requests, songs and other bs. If that were the case, Adam would be one of the artists presently topping the charts since his fans are so dedicated. Radio is what corporates programme for djs to play. So stop with your manufactured reason you are using to put the blame on older fans.

The fact that his songs are not sitting atop even the HAC chart too negates your rant anyway since those older fans type is what is wanted on that format.

His lack of play is not about his songs, demo(imagined demo in ur heads) or anything of such. US Radio simply does not play gay artists. Not a single one of them and that should tell you what the problem is.

they obviously do since wwfm and iihy were played and popular. plus btikm and ncoe are being played. that's not the problem if there is one. i think it is too soon to tell

That must have been a fluke to tamper with your line of thoughts and it is seriously working, moron.

So Adam's songs are worse this era is your excuse, when pretty much almost all the critics said he made a better album with good pop songs?.

And if the airplay his current singles are receiving is the definition of what radio airplay is, his two singles would have been called SMASH Hits like those of Katy's

lol srsly it must suck to be you

Adam was new then and radio didn't know his demo or if he'd retained fans and low initial sales didn't help

also you claim hac which skews older won't touch him but you're wrong since he got decent airplay with btikm but since RCA wants pop they switched and no one gets much play after a flop first single

there are a lot of factors as to why he's not getting airplay including his preconceived demo, lack of sales and requests, him being gay, and more so it's stupid to lay blame on any one issue

You must be stupid and dumb. Huh? Radio did not know he was from AI? The then most rated and most popular show on tv?

That was not decent play he got on HAC! The songs was stalling and they just had to stop pushing it. Taking over 4 months to reach 17 on HAC was bi decent play.

Anyway reading through the other bs you are spilling shows, you are one of those fans who think they are very informed while giving their ignorance away.

Moron, radio spins = exposure = sales. / product = adverts = sales

No one buys something they don't know about. All the purchases you have made in your personal life, have you always dreamt them up first without knowing about their existence, then going on to look for them from one shop to the other until you get them? I know it does not work this way even if you are that delusional.

A blind man trying to show others the way. lol

so your reasoning is radio stations have suddenly become more homophobic? i never said the songs are worse (reading comprehension try some). i said it was too soon to tell. i'm thinking it MIGHT be something behind the sceens going on. not wanting to play the game. such as not wanting to do whatever it is that companies do to get songs on the air and opting for visiting stations and putting on performances instead. as of now, i haven't formed my opinion of what the problem is or even if there is one

also i'd like to add that unfortunately having older women fans does not help him in public. it does as far as the voting and buying and getting his name out there. but people do not want to see old ladies especially in america. old men are cute. old ladies not. they should be heard but not seen. they should be invisible

All the artists not named Bieber, demi etc have older fans. All of them. This is another way by which you are showing your ignorance. You know little about radio afterall.

I guess you only listen to the radio becos of Adam?Otherwise you would have taken just a little time to click on the m&g pix of the other artists you follow. Their fanbases are just like Adam's i.e. diverse with both the old and younger fans!

i go to many concerts and listen to diverse stations. i do not look at meet and greet pictures. what you are saying in untrue. there are not many old ladies in the audience for most artists being played on the radio right now. bruno mars, maroon five, etc. it is reality.

thanks for posting this for those morons with the 'Adam's fans are too old for radio' meme.

lol

idgaf what fans think tbh but i do wish ppol like seacrest would stop with that meme because it's not only untrue but also embarrassing

but then i'm one of those crazy ppol who don't think that pointing out what the target demo of pop stations is counts as ageism so what do i know
