don't be a smart aleck

 

atrl drags bundles when it comes from americans too

let's not act like atrl wasn't getting a few laughs when madame x did 1-77

 

[Rider]

OMG so happy, Jopping is one of the best bops of the year

 

[Smilers]

I hope Summer's team make some mess. This could be the last straw that prompt Billboard to stop counting bundles.

They won, by seeing a historic actually-deserved #1 stolen from a black woman

"The 1st Mini Album had more than 60 merchandise/album bundles available to purchase through their official web stores, a concert ticket/album sale redemption offer with their upcoming arena tour and eight different CD variants of the album (seven with a different cover for each member, along with a group edition). The act also staged a week-long pop-up shop in Los Angeles during street week, where fans could buy the CD (as well as oodles of individual merch items)."

60-65K predicted on Tuesday, 71K on the mid-week chart by Wednesday... yet they ended up doing 168K 

 

The last minute fraud & scammery is something else

[Attitude]

Wow. I thought they'd completely bomb tbh.

 

[Grumpy Gills]

Not 60 bundles 

[icy]

168k?????

Not really this a slap to the face for BTS and Blackpink who succeeded without scam tactics

Have the predictions ever been wrong by 100k?

It's pretty sad that you can scam the charts like that. SM probably lost money through this endeavor, or else barely profited, all just for the empty symbolism of having a US number one. There is nothing to celebrate there.

168k  congrats boys
