    people were legit thinking jack was going to sell more than bad bunny? lmao

    The taste makers had him with a 100k over Benito.

    It wasn’t just the general rabble.

    Damn, is Bunny gonna come out and beat Harlow to #1?

    If so, we never need to listen to HDD again, their numbers are a fugazi.

    those weren't actual projections, it was guesstimates. HDD's actual projections that will come out tomorrow will be within the margin of error of billboard's final numbers

    Their numbers aren't fugazi. They're the only source we have for album projections and they're always on-point. The takeaway from this is making forecasts based on no actual data is irresponsible on their part but then again, we're the ones who took it seriously. They probably just made those projections for the hell of it. They know the real tracking doesn't start till the album drops and you start getting sales/streams numbers.

    That's not at all true, they make pre release projections for major releases for years. They did it for Yeezus (it was way off)

    I love Bad Bunny as much as the next person but people need to stop spreading propaganda without context and facts. Bad Bunny isn't the global force people think he is lol. He absolutely is BY FAR the biggest latin artist in the world and that's a huge f***ing deal but he isn't coming close to the biggest artists in the US.

    But hold on I heard him on the radio in Paris so he must be the biggest global artist by a wide margin?

    How can u say he isn't coming close tho when he's always up there as the most streamed artist in Spotify charts?

    Ok I just read back and that's been done to death

    He's nowhere near MJ for sure that was a stupid thing I seen itt. But nowhere near US artists? Don't agree with that.

    As for global charts I would wanna see them without US numbers because obviously US is the biggest consumer of music by far. And I'm pretty sure Spotify is comfortably the biggest streaming platform outside of US too whereas other streaming platforms are pretty irrelevant so idk about "there's other streaming platforms"

    ah yes because Kanye is the 3rd biggest artist in the world

    I don't think Bad Bunny is bigger than any of Drake, Post Malone, Travis Scott, Justin Bieber, Adele, Taylor Swift, Rihanna, Kendrick Lamar or The Weeknd.
    then you also have arguable ones like BTS, Dua Lipa, Ed Sheeran, Billie Eillish, Harry Styles, Ariana Grande, Doja Cat, Kanye West

    It's a sales thread. The discussions are based on whoever has new music out at the moment.

    ??????

    So u telling me the 100 million streams doesnt mean anything? Because thats what u tryna convey with what u said

    Also there is no f***ing way u are telling me Doja Cat, Post Malone, Travis Scott, Kendrick Lamar and Dua Lipa are even arguable, there is not even a debate when talking about global popularity. Maybe Post Malone years ago but for sure not in 2022.
    I would say he is even bigger than some of the others u mentioned, but i can see the argument.

    Also, i have to say that being the most streamed artist in the most popular streaming platform means SOMETHING, there is no way y'all can brush it off like its a little thing.

    Like for me thats the most important data out there, like he is number one in the site where people actually are listening to music.

    Dont know if this is accurate, but he is also a top artist in Youtube, also one of the top choices people are listening to music
