== Drip is a promotional single ==

Cardi B herself didn't call Drip a single. She simply said her new song is out. <ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/BhInHlehBHN/?hl=en&taken-by=iamcardib</ref> Compared to when she directly called Be Careful a single.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/Bg7S-5Ghzha/?hl=en&taken-by=iamcardib</ref>
Drip was also never sent to radio.  <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:ELEMONATED|ELEMONATED]] ([[User talk:ELEMONATED#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/ELEMONATED|contribs]]) 20:22, 10 April 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
:Refer to [[User talk:Hayman30#Drip]], not gonna repeat what I've said. Please discuss before making any further reverts. [[User:Hayman30|Hayman30]] ([[User talk:Hayman30|talk]]) 00:08, 11 April 2018 (UTC)
:[[User:ELEMONATED]] and [[User:Cornerstonepicker]] are right. Drip is a promo single. It was released with the album preorder a day before the album release. Cardi announced it as "a new song" on her Instagram. Not the album's fourth single. The writer from Vibe vaguely calling it a single does not make it the album's fourth official single. [https://salutemag.com/2018/04/06/review-cardi-b-invasion-privacy/ Salute magazine calls it a promo single]. Like the others have said, it is not being sent to radio. In fact, [https://www.allaccess.com/top40-mainstream AllAccess confirmed "I Like It" as the next single to be sent to pop radio instead.] [[User:Bardigang|Bardigang]] ([[User talk:Bardigang|talk]]) 17:06, 15 April 2018 (UTC)
::{{Re|Bardigang}} Omg. Her calling it a song '''doesn't mean it's not a single'''. Salute magazine is a WordPress site hence is unreliable. Both E! News and Vibe are identified as reliable sources. Also, singles are '''not''' required to be sent to radio. [[User:Hayman30|Hayman30]] ([[User talk:Hayman30|talk]]) 18:17, 15 April 2018 (UTC)
Media outlets calling it the "new single" does not make it a single. They do this all the time. [http://www.nme.com/news/music/listen-call-want-new-single-taylor-swift-2156130 NME called "Call It What You Want" by Taylor Swift a single] and [https://www.rollingstone.com/music/videos/lady-gaga-kicks-dope-in-new-song-20131104 Rolling Stone called "Dope" by Lady Gaga a single] yet they are promotoinal singles. Same with "Drip" they were not promoted to radio and were released as instant grats to promote the album release; thus they are not singles. Your sources don't call it the 4th single and you are spreading false info. You clearly don't know how these things work and 3 editors have reverted and disagreed with you - give it a rest. [[User:Bardigang|Bardigang]] ([[User talk:Bardigang|talk]]) 18:46, 15 April 2018 (UTC)
:{{Re|Bardigang}} Oh wow that makes perfect sense. A song is not a single because some random guy on Wikipedia is against it being a single. Wikipedia is based on sources, not their user's views. 3 editors have disagreed with me so I must be wrong? You may be the one who "don't know how these things work", 3:1 does not indicate consensus ;-). Just calm down dude.

:::{{Re|Bardigang}} They called it a single, that's more than sufficient, the level of detail you're requiring is ridiculously absurd. You're just bitching over minor shit now to back yourself up.

::::It is not my personal belief. As I explained above with "Dope" and "Call It What You Want" media outlets call promo· singles "new singles" all the time because they are new singles but that does not make them an official single. Cardi B has not confirmed it and infact "Be Careful" and "I Like It" are being sent to radio not "Drip". Yeah your sources are reliable but they do not support "Drip" as the album's fourth single as they do not call it that and "I Like It" is being sent to pop radio instead. "Drip" was released as an instant grat promo single whether you like it or not. [[User:Bardigang|Bardigang]] ([[User talk:Bardigang|talk]]) 19:27, 15 April 2018 (UTC)

:::::The only reason why users agreed to include those [[Reputation_(Taylor_Swift_album)#Singles|''Reputation'' singles]] is because they were all sent to radio. As I said before, media calls all promotional singles, singles. "Drip" is a promo single. [[User:Cornerstonepicker|Cornerstonepicker]] ([[User talk:Cornerstonepicker|talk]]) 03:35, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
{{Outdent|:::::}}{{Re|Bardigang}} You are just repeating yourself. If media outlets calling it a single doesn't make it a single, what would? It being sent to radio? In fact, "Bartier Cardi" and "Be Careful" were not sent to radio either. Are they promo singles now? They called it a single, they don't have to go as specific as calling it "the album's fourth single", we sort singles by their release date. Your entire argument is based on nothing but personal belief. You've got no reliable source whatsoever calling it a promo single. And oh my god, a single '''is''' a song/track, calling it a song/track has nothing to do with its status as a single. {{Re|Cornerstonepicker}} That's just your opinion, there has never been a community consensus on this matter. We all know "Drip" is a promo single, admittedly I do too. I even drafted the page calling it a promo, but then I realized there's sources calling it a single. I mean, are we just gonna say that we can't trust these sources and consider the song as a promo single '''entirely''' based on our personal belief?. [[User:Hayman30|Hayman30]] ([[User talk:Hayman30|talk]]) 04:40, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
:[[User:Hayman30]] according to Wikipedia's article for [[promotional recording]]: "In music, a buzz single or advance single is a track or promotional song, released by the label (typically) preceding the album's release. The song(s) are released in order to bring attention to an album's release. Buzz singles are not typically issued to radio as promotional singles, due to the fact that they are only intended to attract minor attention compared to a regular single." [[http://www.idolator.com/7676893/cardi-b-migos-sexy-drip?andro=1&chrome=1 Idolator, a reliable source, call it a "buzz track"] and in album reviews after the release of "Drip", both [http://www.xxlmag.com/rap-music/reviews/2018/04/cardi-b-invasion-of-privacy-album-review/ ''XXL''] and [https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/10/arts/music/cardi-b-invasion-of-privacy-review.html ''The New York Times'']] refer to "Be Careful" as the new single and "Drip" as just a track. Media outlets calling songs "singles" upon release should be taken with a grain of salt as they vaguely don't refer to what type of single it is. If we were to base it on what some sources say then songs like "Dope", "Venus", "Call It What You Want" etc would all not be promo singles as well because some sources call them singles when they are not. Numerous sources and Cardi herself have referred to "Drip" as just a song from the album and not a single. Sorry for the long paragraph, it just feels like you are not seeing the points we have been trying to make. [[User:Bardigang|Bardigang]] ([[User talk:Bardigang|talk]]) 03:10, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
::You explained it better than me. [[User:Cornerstonepicker|Cornerstonepicker]] ([[User talk:Cornerstonepicker|talk]]) 04:31, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
:::{{Re|Bardigang}} Neither are you seeing the points I've been trying to make? '''Calling "Drip" a song/track doesn't mean it's not a single, a single itself is a song/track''', stop bringing up this argument. It's really not up to us to consider what is to be taken with a grain of salt, what makes Idolator a more reliable source than ''E! News'' and ''Vibe'' in this case? We cannot decide which source to use simply because simply disagree with what other sources says on our own behalf. How did you evaluate whether their statement of "Drip" being a single is vague or not? [[User:Hayman30|Hayman30]] ([[User talk:Hayman30|talk]]) 13:03, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
:::: I opened a request at the [[Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard]] because this is not going anywhere. [[User:Bardigang|Bardigang]] ([[User talk:Bardigang|talk]]) 14:57, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
:I agree with {{ping|Bardigang}}. It appears that "Drip" is a promotional single, similar to "Supastars" of off ''[[Culture II]]''. Sources call the song a "single" without differentiating between a usual single and one for solely promotional purposes. [[User:Nice4What|Nice4What]] ([[User talk:Nice4What|talk]]) 23:23, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
:::: Media outlets calling songs released singles should not be taken 100% accurate all the time. We should be implementing the same rules all across Wikipedia, therefore we should go by Wikipedia's own definition of a promotional single being "''an audio or video recording distributed free, usually in order to promote a recording that is or soon will be commercially available"''. <ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Promotional_recording</ref> Drip fits exactly that. [[User:ELEMONATED|ELEMONATED]] ([[User talk:ELEMONATED|talk]]) 21:37, 18 April 2018 (UTC)
::{{Re|Nice4What}} Again, how do we assess whether publications are "vaguely" calling the song a single or not? {{Re|ELEMONATED}} So what makes Idolator more accurate? Wikipedia's definition for promotional singles have been widely deemed outdated, the section is even tagged for being outdated.

:::::{{Re|Hayman30}} You should know better to not personalize content disputes, and actually think that it is no coincidence that everyone is disagreeing with you before "going there" on a false COI accusation... No sources or the artist herself have confirmed it as the 4th single. As we keep repeatedly telling you, your sources are vague by calling it "a single" because they don't clarify ''what type of single'' it is. Ie. "Fourth official single" or "promo single" or "non album single" etc. And now that we provide you with a source clarifying it as a promo/buzz single. You yourself have even admitted in this discussion that you recognize that "Drip" is a promo single. I'm starting to think we have a [[WP:COMMONSENSE]] issue here. [[User:Bardigang|Bardigang]] ([[User talk:Bardigang|talk]]) 21:09, 21 April 2018 (UTC)
::::::{{Re|Bardigang}} Everyone disagreeing with me doesn't mean I'm wrong. This is not a false accusation; we all know "Bardigang" is the name of Cardi B's army, and you primarily edit articles about Cardi B. I think it goes without saying that you have a significant conflict of interest. Anyway, you're still unable to get my point. '''Publications do not have to go as specific as calling it the fourth single'''. Referring to it as a single is more than sufficient. And again, what makes Idolator a more reliable source than the other two? You are deeming other sources unreliable because they contradict your personal belief. We can argue all day long if we can't move beyond this point. Me recognizing the song as a promo single has nothing to do with this—Wikipedia is based on sources, not what their editors think.

::::::: This is literally a promo single and you're the only person who (half heartedly, mind you) still wants this to be considered a single. Be Careful has been promoted to radio and released as a seperate single before album release. Drip was released with no single artwork, no individual purchase, and was not promoted as a single by the label nor sent to radio. Literally 90% of news sites call promo singles singles because they don't dwelve into music far enough to even clarify those kinds of specifics.

{{outdent|:::::::}} Whether it has been sent to radio or not is not the only determining factor, y'all are still using this to back yourselves up. Bartier Cardi was not sent to radio either, does that make it a promo single? Again, you are just denying what sources say by analysing them in your own way (i.e. they're calling the song a promo single when they refer to it as a single because I think so).

After reviewing [[Single (music)]] and [[Promotional single]], there seems to be a clear distinction between the two. This isn't something that needs consensus or discussion.

For some reason Drip is listed as a promo single despite the fact it was sent to contemporary hit radio in Australia and I have a source that shows proof.
