I doubt it was Toni who receives the 60%, more of the people behind Toni's song.

It was big.
The song was an airplay only release -- and at the time, Billboard did not allow airplay only songs to chart on the Hot 100 - which is why it didn't chart on the Hot 100. It was another Top 10 R&B Airplay hit for her though. #4.
Title: Re: Burna Boy preview's new single sampling Brandy's "Top of The World"
Post by: Rxxf on May 30, 2023, 10:59:42 PM
I think if it was released as a physical single out the gate, it would have gone Top 10 - Hot 100, for sure.
Title: Re: Burna Boy preview's new single sampling Brandy's "Top of The World"
Post by: Cowgirl on May 30, 2023, 11:02:22 PM
!!

The Hot 100 is a good indication of hit today but it doesn't/hasn't always been the only way to determine a hit, especially back then with all of the rules and regulations. People only following this chart is more of a recent thing.
Title: Re: Burna Boy preview's new single sampling Brandy's "Top of The World"
Post by: Rxxf on May 30, 2023, 11:07:41 PM
It's the reason why "Are You that Somebody" by Aaliyah peaked at #21 - although the song was much bigger. It wasn't released as a physical single. It was airplay only. But in December 1998, Billboard changed the rules during its peak. Which allowed her to chart.

That all makes sense. Appreciate the context. B/c I used to always wonder that for both songs (Top of the World & AYTS) they were EVERYWHERE during that year

The way Brandy performed Top of the World at every damn award show too, I used to live as a kid
