    This list sums up the cognitive dissonance we all feel seeing certain artists on Billboard constantly when they never impact us IRL.

    Hollywood's Bleeding being the 7th biggest album of the last 25 years, for example. No one on the planet would argue that, but Sunflower was tacked onto it for streams, so it skews the numbers.

    what is their actual method for calculating this? is there a good read anywhere about billboard's antics? i can't find s***

    wouldnt say that just every website involving writing an article is becoming paywalled and subscription based

    I knew DAMN. was bigger than every album in Drakes discography

    I knew Lil Baby My Turn was bigger than anything in Kendricks diacography

    Yeah I agree. In fact, it's actually becoming a huge problem becau log in to KTT2 premium to see the rest of this post

    because 21 is that big, streaming or not

    but thats just one album, the list has 100

    Just skimmed through the rest of the list, you were 100% right.

    Hoodie SZN by A Boogie on the list but not one single Kanye album

    Streaming is completely flawed

    This is why it’s always been stupid when people use Billboard points and metric to argue why one artist is better than another

    i didn't even know they still wrote any kind of pieces beyond 'here are 5 artists who "opened up" about their mental health recently

    "mentalhealthcollage.jpg"

    then i found 'billboard pro" but that sounds like it's for unpaid interns at labels only

    'Billboard’s Deep Dive reports make sense of the industry’s fast-changing sectors – explaining how to take advantage of the vinyl boom, make sense of the growing African music business, and a***yze and monetize the kind of super fans fueling the K-pop explosion.'

    “Biggest rap album of the decade” and the s*** don’t even have 4 billion Spotify streams
