cause they paid bunch of popular right wing accounts on twitter to rt this vid for past two days.
It was on 25 for a bit but now 73. Them buying enough physicals to push this to billboard hot 100 is annoying cause
that will land him in bunch of playlists

richmond was the capital of the confederacy, and the civil war was commonly framed by the south as local farmers against Northern industrial capitalists

this song harks back to that

As of right now, at least it’s not challenging for number 1.

It’s 5 on Apple Music right now.

conservatives mass buying songs isn't a new phenomenon, that's how tom macdonald has songs that have charted on the hot 100. what's new is the fact that they're actually streaming these songs as of late, and there's not much billboard can do about that.

wayne stans didnt listen to anybody else so it was a great year

Astroturfing billboard charts is crazy lmao but I ain’t surprised right wingers wouldn’t try that after Morgan wallen’s success

Billboard lets K Pop and normal Pop stans get away with mass buying so why not country and conservative bullshit

It's what happens when you have s*** rules and don't enforce better ones to make your chart have some integrity

Seeing ktt lose their s*** over “right wingers” buying music is hilarious lol

angry bout white privilege when post malone broke drake's diamond records...

but aldean singing bout killing cophaters at an old slave hanging spot is karma since kpop/pop fans have mass bought albums before...

i dont agree but i see where you coming from

I am not sure why you brought Drake up but no matter what's in these songs, anything can happen once trickery is afoot

Calling it mass buying is kinda crazy. It's easy to top iTunes, you need maybe like 100k downloads. That's probably a tiny rural city in the U.S.

Those people are buying the song, not necessarily 4 times each on diff cards.

rural

city

🥴

Oops thought it meant small

You get the point, maybe.

the song is already #5 on apple music after 1 day of being posted to streaming a predominately hiphop chart to begin with so its not just people "mass buying" for fun, they are actually listening to it at the rate of millions of streams per day right now

It's debuting in the Hot 100 top 10.

Here we go.

think it will debut higher, talk of the charts initial predictions were based on poor streaming numbers but it being #5 on AM already and dominating itunes will def put this in top 5 debut considering the top 10 is in shambles how weak points are

Plus it’s got the advantage of political discourse on X, but is actually listenable (unlike Try This In a Small Town)

Country music is really taking it this year.

Gunna still holdin it down

So Taylor can pull out all the stops to block Drake and SZA but not Luke huh

u know her roots is country
