You’re ridiculous. You’re only worried about streams being fake from apple because they are HIPHOP dominated. If you’re favorite Kpop group streamed well on Apple Music you wouldn’t say s***. You should be worrying about the mass inflation of numbers in the kpop community instead of worrying about Apple Music’s streams :​

Like 10 KPop albums have touched the BB200 Top 10

"mass inflation"

It’s 2020 and you think that streams coming from the biggest U.S streaming platform shouldn’t count because they are hip hop dominated and you’re favorite kpop group can’t stream well on it . Sales coming from Kpop groups won’t ever be organic until they limit it to 1 purchase per credit card/ person.

1. Doing anything (buying/streaming/etc) with the explicit purpose of affecting chart position is inherently inorganic. So yes, fans buying music can be inorganic.

2. Apple Music doesn’t sign artists. They’re not a label. And I’m pretty sure they don’t even do exclusives anymore.

I guess every song is inherently inorganic then

Why do labels throw songs on Playlists and Radio? To spread joy through music?

They give deals. SEMANTICS!

Inorganic is buying a t shirt and it counting as an album sale

You continue to miss the point. No one cares if people casually buy music. It’s the fact that y’all dedicate you’re life to finessing and manipulating the chart for a group of people that don’t even know you lol. A group of people buying the same song/album 10-15 times so their favorite can chart higher will never be organic. It’s never about the music when it comes to kpop in the U.S. All kpop stans care about is how much they can finesse billboard and complain about fake streams because they can’t stream well on U.S streaming platforms

Selling out stadiums your faves couldn't even imagine co-headlining

It's about the music sweaty

If it’s about the music then why can’t y’all just stream the music and buy it normally? You still have yet to address the fact that kpop stans are out here buying songs/albums 10-15 times so they can chart high. It’s obviously not about the music if they have to do all that so it can chart

If you can’t tell what the issue is then idk what to tell you. Actually read what I’m saying instead of trying to deflect every time and you’ll get it.

Don’t need to. The strategy is the same for ever big Kpop release in the U.S
