Vernon Neilly Explodes On To Billboard Charts

Just 2 weeks ago, Vernon Neilly's new single from the award winning CD G-Fire II (Boosweet Records) was released to the world via AC/UAC commercial, satellite, cable, internet stations across the globe. Having an immediate impact at radio, the single Unconditional Love was the #1 most added single at AC radio, and picked up early indicators at UAC radio according to BDS reports.

Going into week 2 the single was still firecracker hot as it remained in the top 5 most added singles at #4, jumping up the chart from #148 to #69, and added an incredible +129 spin increase over the prior week.

For most any artist major or independent to jump out of the gate with those kinds of numbers after only two weeks of a release, would have them jumping up and down for joy. The best news was yet to materialize though, and did when the Nielsen Soundscan report rolled in last week to show that not only did Vernon's G-Fire II CD spike at retail, but exploded onto the Billboard Chart at #12 Contemporary Jazz Albums. Unconditional Love is one of the hottest singles out right now, and is especially getting overwhelming response from the 24-54 female demographic, because of its very lush, romantic musical track, and passionate vocal delivery.
