"Promotional single"

..Instead of "single". "Humble" is going for radio adds, and it's apparently the lead single. "The Heart P4", like the others, is only a promotional single. Thoughts? @32zel: @JustDoItFettyg:. Cornerstonepicker (talk) 07:18, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Cornerstonepicker: Now that you mentioned it, it does look like a promo single since there is no radio for the song. That's just my opinion. Other editors input could be helpful too. JustDoItFettyg (talk) 19:24, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It's being referred to as the first single. Other opinions? @1Sire:, @LilNumerator:, @TheAmazingPeanuts:. Cornerstonepicker (talk) 21:51, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Cornerstonepicker: I've just seen that "Humble" has been added to radio on April and I haven't seen a date for "The Heart Part 4", I believe it's a promotional single in my opinion. LilNumerator (talk) 01:19, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@LilNumerator:@Cornerstonepicker:@32zel:@JustDoItFettyg: It should be regarded as a promotional single, since the NPR article says "presumptive first single", and due to the song being released independently on Top Dawg via TuneCore. Bloomdoom2 (talk) 23:23, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I've noticed "The Blacker the Berry" and "untitled 07 | levitate" were also never sent to radio, but were available as "singles" on iTunes.. Cornerstonepicker (talk) 05:45, 2 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The articles related to singles aren't my thing but I know two editors who might tell if this is a official single or not. Pinging @BlaccCrab: and @Eurofan88: in this discussion. TheAmazingPeanuts (talk) 03:46, 2 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

If you guys know anything about the music industry (let alone kendrick's past "Heart" songs), you'd know this is clearly a promotional single. It won't be on the album and it has no radio add. BlaccCrab (talk) 23:31, 2 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Cornerstonepicker:@BlaccCrab:@32zel:@JustDoItFettyg:@Bloomdoom2: Now that everyone's got their say, it's safe to say that this should be changed to a promotional single. LilNumerator (talk) 00:24, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Cornerstonepicker:@BlaccCrab:@JustDoItFettyg:@Bloomdoom2: Yes a promotional single describes this single perfectly 32zel (talk) 01:10, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Cornerstonepicker (talk) 01:15, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Cornerstonepicker:@BlaccCrab:@JustDoItFettyg:@32zel: Also to note, if this promo single actually does appear on the album, it should then considered an official single other than a promo single. Any thoughts? Bloomdoom2 (talk) 23:15, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Cornerstonepicker:@BlaccCrab:@JustDoItFettyg:@Bloomdoom2: Yes it should go that way , but i highly doubt it makes it to the album 32zel (talk) 23:29, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Bloomdoom2: @32zel: This would still be considered as a promotional single because it wasn't pushed to radio as a single the same way HUMBLE. did (which was listed as the lead single). That's just what I think personally. LilNumerator (talk) 23:33, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
