    @MCHammer A hit isn't a chart position now. A hit can be many things, but if it becomes a meme it's definitely a "hit."

    @MCHammer, you were nominated by @poke__egg (and 4 others) for a #music Shorty Award http://bit.ly/HOXF

 2008-12-15 06:35:03

    @jeremymeyers i agree we should avoid self destruction and greed (@mchammer) but also find a new way of doing things.  good point jeremy.
 2008-12-15 05:39:01
  
    @MCHammer it's not greedy for people in the music biz. to want to survive.  go make $, but pls hammer don't hurt them.

    Tuned into @MCHammer HammerTime Radio's mad tunes & interviews: http://mchammer.com/

    @MCHammer Thanks, Hammer!  It's always nice to get love from the East Bay!  and go ahead, Hurt 'em!

    @MCHammer to quote a leader of our time, change has come. But I can't give you all the details here. If you want, send a private msg

    @MCHammer You should try LastFM! It's great at tracking your music in periodic increments.
 2008-12-15 01:57:47
  
    @MCHammer I've always wondered. There are always good songs that aren't there, and ones that are that leave much to be desired.

   @MCHammer I thought it was Casey Kasem that determined the top 40!? ;)
 2008-12-15 01:25:12
  
    @MCHammer But why not have it change? Life changes and music needs to change with life. I could totally see/use a Google trends for music.

    @MCHammer...good ?. I still think it's a game of how much u r willin 2 pay-ola under the table & politics of "big name" & "big management"

   @MCHammer with new tech and social media, a "hit" can be made for nothing. Question is, can a star? There's a big diff bt stars & phenomenon
 2008-12-15 01:00:29
  
    @MCHammer a lot of it now is based on Soundscan and Arbitron numbers. More sales than anything else, as per usual.
 2008-12-15 00:39:08
  
 netik :
   @MCHammer When I worked in the record industry, Top 200 was based on soundscan, sale data sent in from every major record store.
 2008-12-15 00:38:13
  
    @MCHAMMER Billboard uses metrics. Sales, airtime, and for the past 15 years digital tracking. What are you getting at?
 2008-12-15 00:34:48
  
 AustinRM :
   @MCHammer I remember Prince Billing CD prices into his concert ticket to boost his CD sales numbers and that seemed to help him out.
 2008-12-15 00:33:50
  
 writegud :
   @MCHammer Airplay and sales. Billboard singles charts are based on Nielsen research for airplay; Album charts based on nielsen/sales.
 2008-12-15 00:31:54
  
    @MCHammer - answer: most sales in the US, both digital and retail.  Tracking begins Sunday and ends Monday.
 2008-12-15 00:24:04
  
    @MCHammer Are the words so incredibly inane that a 4 year old could have written them?   If so, then it is prime for a number 1 single.

   @MCHammer the music industry scares me. i could see myself working in the music industry if it wasn't so freighting.
 2008-12-15 00:10:38
  
    @MCHAMMER the age of the "HIT" is over. Were listn'n to thelongtail now. WHATS WORTH OUR ATTENTION? People we know or hollywoods deception?
 2008-12-15 00:10:15
  
    @MCHammer or you could just make a fly dance vid & partner with Kanye or Beyonce
 2008-12-15 00:00:18
  
    @MCHammer I know of at least two artists denying all traditional "label-sponsored" opps to go to market through new mediums and strategies.
 2008-12-14 23:54:46
  
    @MCHammer Hey MC.  Have you seen any of True Blood on HBO?  What's your feeling on that?
 2008-12-14 23:53:36
  
    @MCHammer I believe it will be proven that artists will establish multiple sources of revenue through new live, mobile and online channels.

   @MCHammer Where possible, closed-loop digital marketing/pr that tracks hits, leads, opportunities and sales wins is super.
 2008-12-14 23:50:48
  
    @MCHammer HERETIC!!!! Are you redefining validation of a hit based on something other than pure economics??
 2008-12-14 23:50:10
  
    @MCHammer "Validation of a hit"? Please Hammer, don't hurt Chaka!

   @MCHammer I am sure you will adjust fine you seem like a good guy. It would be nice for CDs to follow in DVD's foot steps and have extras.

    RT @MCHammer: The music industry (1.0 ) is dead and being reborn in 2.0. to get ahead and find your place in PR or mkting you must adjust
 2008-12-14 23:46:07
  
    @MCHammer id say the industry is far from dead. its just dead in the corporate control and manufacture sense.
