    im assumimg op is trying to bring up the point that a small super engaged subset of fans can push their artist to break a record thanks to the wide ease access to streaming, and of course the suspect suggested ad viewing numbers

    which is a valid point

    but honestly mr campbell, who cares??!?

    there's less diversity in hobbies and interests because of social media, so naturally the most popular people are going to be more popular these days

    big facts

    as opposed to searching through the shop for s*** that interests you, now most people go to playlists

    and playlists arent particularly incorruptable

    In a way, yes.

    Streaming is dominated by people under 40 and radio and TV music videos are functionally dead which means that the age of the megastar is almost over.

    Average people have no clue who that Olivia chick is, even though she's had the number 1 song of the country since forever.

    Same with the dudes who made that Mood song.

    Hits in the past felt way more organic bc they were partly driven by record sales and were exposed to a wide variety of media. When Lil Jon dropped Get Low, even your grandma heard the song and Lil Jon's name(and his "YEAH!" phrase).

    That's not the case anymore. I'll say the records broken still technically hold merit but, in the Internet/streaming age, it feels far less universal and significant.
