    Weeknd had multiple hits that grabbed the public's attention prior to BL as well.

    But BL is another level above that, that's the point.

    And April 2016 was not before the streaming era what are you talking about

    Streaming grew by like 2-3x since apr 2016 is what i'm talkin about. People were still buying music (outside of bundles) a lot back then

    and yea that's my point. Artists at that level should have a giant hit almost every albuim, especially at their peak, which you guys have been saying The Weeknd is at atm

    It’s his third highest album on Billboard right now, and has not left the chart since it dropped.

    It was extremely successful commercially and has no giant hit.

    Which goes back to my point: a mainstream artist’s album is not a flop if that album doesn’t have a #1 or doesn’t have a giant, long-standing hit (CLB had a #1 but it didn’t have a song that became a mainstay on the charts)

    Loool he isn't though

    streaming money ranking for 2024 is probably like
    taylor
    drake
    morgan
    zach bryan
    sabrina
    sza
    weeknd
    olivia
    travis

    On the flipside, Honestly, Nevermind was a complete commercial flop but had one song that was huge.

    One single song does not determine whether or not an entire album was successful or not

    Weeknd literally has to be above any other male, he was the first male artist to pass 10 billion streams in 2024
