Pras's "Haven't Found" moving up? Did I miss something?

How on earth did this work? Did people forget real music, or is the Summer one-hit wonders coming early?

This remake of U2's classic is HORRIBLE!!! If you've heard it, you'd agree. They try to make it a "rap" song.

But still, a +327 gain on such an awful song...there's better songs out there.

This probably won't even get past top 20.

Anyone else agrees that this song is spinning for no good reason?

They're only playing it because its rap. And probably because its Pras.

Truthfully, it's not a bad song for CHR. The audience knows Pras from "Ghetto Superstar," and the older end of the audience will recognize the U2 sample... It could be worse.<P ID="signature">______________

I know both of those songs :) and I do like this remix by Pras. Of course compared to the ghetto superstar (another remix) it is not the best, but a good song still. :)

I remember Pras from The Fugees as well as 1998's megahit Ghetto Supastar. I also know the U2 song very well. It doesn't make me like this horrible track any better. Just my opinion.

Well don't you seem suprised in it's gain? You would think it would totally flop. Guess not...

The song is 90% hook...that makes for a good record @ CHR.
 
The song is all hook. I don't love it... but it is a good CHR summer song... I think it'll have a high burn factor sooner then later, but I'm playing it.
