1000 Hugs and Kisses airplay

The song appeared to peak at #13 on the Urban AC airplay charts a couple of weeks ago. It's ranged from 13-15 since then and moved back up to #13 today. Hit N Run phase 2 appears to be better targeted at that audence, I wonder what he plans for a followup single. It would be smart to build on the success of 1000 X's and O's. A strong followup would likely crack the top 10 on Urban AC and possibly get some crossover on other stations.

I hear it almost every day in Savannah. I was wondering how it was doing. Thanks!

If Prince actually tried promoting the single he might have a nice R&B hit. Yeah, not gonna happen.

It was #2 on SiriusXM Heart and Soul's Platinum 20 a week ago. (Not sure where it ended up in yesterday's countdown.)

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

X's & O's is the best single choice by far off the two albums. If you have an album called HITNRUN and is supposed to have hits, common sense would tell you that you must promote the single. Instead, nothing.

I really like phase two, but don't see much of a single.

Maybe Stare or When She Comes? Again, it'll only work with promotion.

There are plenty of songs on HNR2 that should do well on the stations playing 1000 Xs and Os. And the 5 million+ people that song is reaching should like pretty much the whole album if they listen to it.

"Revelation" will shoot straight to number #1. prince ballads are legendary "Future Baby Mama" won prince his 7VENTH grammy and was steady airplay on urban ac radio & charts.
eye will ALWAYS think of prince like a "ACT OF GOD"! N another realm. eye mean of all people who might of been aliens or angels.if found out that prince wasn't of this earth, eye would not have been that surprised. R.I.P. prince

Black muse or Big City...although they don`t fit on todays radio, but great uptempo songs...

Maybe she comes on urban ac...

Apart from that 1000 x`s & o`s holds quite well on urban ac cool

Great pop radio friendly track. A little promotion could have gone a long way on the pop charts.

Except it wasn't on AOA.

It seems great fools think alike.

Boy don't both of you look really really stupid.

I mean more than usual. lol

With no online/TV video or a performance push....This song could def. go top 5 if Prince wanted to truly push it out....

BTW...Chicago has really taken to this track. My folks back home tell me that the song is getting a lot of radio airplay....

a month latter and it's back to #12 on the Urban AC daily chart. It never got the boost to crack the top 10, but thus far also never fell beyond about #13.

What the fuck is with this guy and his lack of promotion? His next album will sell 500 copies in its first week and he'll conduct an interview about "the state of the industry" lol

133 days (19 weeks) on the Urban AC chart and it moves back up to #15 today. It spent the vast majority of that time in the top 15, but never cracked the top 10. It's still odd that there isn't a followup single to build on that airplay success.

"Black Muse" is the follow up...

i don't know either. he made a nice video for that, promoted it live a few times
and actually printed a single for it and all. still no real chart hit. people are idiots,
they just want crap songs i guess.

meanwhile, a couple of years and about 7 different mixes later, i still love this
song dearly. i listen to it a lot, still. i know it gets its share of hate on the org but
i don't really know why. i absolutely love it. it was great to see that prince did it
live during the Piano & Microphone show.

a new single could perhaps be "look at me, look at you". i know "revelation" is a

killer song but it's perhaps a little bit too 'late night' for daytime radio. but for
now it would be cool if "black muse" gets some airplay, it's a nice song.

and true love lives on lollipops and crisps
