I highly doubt it’s completely real time (ie. updated every ~second) because it would be shifting around all the time like crazy. Probably more like an hourly update that takes the last 24 hours’ streams? I’d be interested to know the algorithm

A lot of people on KTT not gonna get this (too young) but this is hilarious

Fr I wanna see Drake and Bad Bunny collab again. Drakes Spanish vocals are surprisingly good.

Took me back to this classic

The Velvet Teddy Bear

Still yet to ever hear anyone play a Rod Wave song anywhere, dunno how this dude is so mysteriously popular

the AM bots going extra hard for him.

He's a foreign act and having the year of his career I don't blame him for charging that lol. Bts did just about the same numbers I think too

Lanez

Megan highest song #100 on Apple

This about to do 20k first week

YB BETTER

only 114k

Yeah it ain’t looking good for her but we’ll see what happen next

He's playing by his own rules now.

W for YB and Bad Bunny

YB fans taking this prelim W to new heights

YB fans thinking this is special while bad bunny is moving 100k since nearly 10 weeks effortlessly meanwhile YB wont be on the charts anymore in like 3 weeks

YB on top 🙏

Even if it updated every second, the positions of songs/albums wouldn't change that fast because every song at every position is averaging a number of streams per day that runs into hundreds of thousands to millions and it'd take you a while to surpass those marks just off the number of people who'd have to stream a song to do so.

You don't have to down YB to praise Bad Bunny. They're both successful in their own respective ways. Bad Bunny is having his staple breakout year but YB has also achieved a lot considering how young he is and the fact that he's still growing his fanbase every year.

It's a 24 hour rolling chart.

The last time the iTunes or Apple chart is updated, is based on streams in those last 24 hours. (Update at 6 pm would be streams since 6 pm the previous day, update at 10 pm would be streams since 10 pm the previous day)

That's why it's impossible for a song to fall first day unless other new songs also start passing it. A song's first 24 hours the streams will only go up on a rolling chart based on last 24 hours.
