Yep, a Hot 100 #1 is no longer the big time achievement it used to be :rip: the Hot 100 has turned into the UK Singles Chart from the early 00s

There were 32 #1s in 1989 and 30+ in 1990 and 1991.

 

What do you mean? :rip:

BB should really halve the impact of pure sales on H100 or else this fraudulence will continue. SWU is really a stain in Ariana's discography although I like the song. Scooter really used her to give her favorite client a #1 this year.

I hate that the quick lil’ #1 debuts are putting a stain on what otherwise would still be a huge achievement. Harry got his first #1 with his second era, a post album single that went from a promo song that was almost scrapped from the album to #1 hit with longevity and Grammy nominated and it’s like neither of those things are worth as much anymore because other artists cheapen it with their antics (I’m looking directly at Justin Bieber & co)

Well, if it wasn’t the last trick discount and releasing instrument version + limited cassette/CDs/Vinyl ect from Columbia and mass buying fans on his website, Harry will never have a #1 hit. WS will be another AY with #6 peaking :cm:

Let's keep it cute... Him going #1 was also done with the help of cheap desperate tactics.

This is just... wow.
