    Coming week

    Rain on Me gonna be pretty questionable on staying #1 even with the album boost I think
    Feel like it’s gonna drop down below 300 points without the album and the album will push it to 350 tops so it’ll be tight

    Damn gooba gonna fall harder than stuck with u

    Who is still listening to Blinding Lights? lol

    But seriously, I'm surprised Gaga might actually get another #1. She's been kinda inconsistent ever since Artpop, but Ariana is the new hit girl so I wouldn't be surprised if it goes #1. Crazy how Ari is just snagging these #1s so easily (even if she cheated that last one lol)

    I think people tend to forget how big Gagas fanbase is. Stupid Love, a song that leaked 3 months prior to its release, went #5 just 2 months ago.

    If songs are going to debut number 1 like this a number 1 is soon going to be meaningless.

    Songs debutted at #1 all the time before the streaming era songs were considered failures if they didnt go immediately #1

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Billboard_Hot_100_chart_achievements_and_milestones

    Go to song milestones and then to number 1 debuts. It’s happening way more frequently and easily now.

    No they didn't. It's SO much easier for songs to debut at #1 now, especially if you're someone like Ari, Drake, Taylor or any of the other top pop and rap artists right now.

    I've always been confused as to why they count singles towards album consumption. Shouldn't they be separate? Congrats though.

    Edit: Stupid Love and Rain On Me both going platinum soon though. Crazy how Rain On Me halfway to gold and it's only been a week.

    streams for songs on an album count towards album sales because streaming is such a big part of the market

    roughly the number of streams required to generate $10 in revenue (album price) is what constitutes an album sale

    when an album releases all prior streams of songs on the album are included in net sales because these songs are part of the album and have as a result generated sales for the album
