I think it's more of a ratio thing, for example the top 5 albums in 2015 Album Equivalents vs Most Streamed:

Her streaming is amazing, top notch in-fact, but her sales were an absolute anomaly, untouchable.

And considering that 25 wasn't available for streaming for the first 7 months, that's really good. That's why I'm so excited to see 30 streaming from day one.

All of Bey's albums being #2 top two and she is number two

Most of her albums are actually extremely large and would be #1 any other year but she always releases against the highest of the highest like Back to Black, The Fame, 21.

Ooh yes this tracks, it's funny the Ceremonials (deluxe) doesn't include the Calvin Harris remix but 'Ceremonials' does and I was going off of Ceremonials (Deluxe) because I assumed it would include all of the tracks on Ceremonials + more. Fascinating, thank you for clarifying.

But 25 wasn't available on streaming initially? If I recall correctly, it was released physically and then after 2-3 weeks after release it came to Spotify, that certainly impacted her streaming numbers drastically upon release but certainly did what it had to do impacting positively her debut week sales.

Right yeah, that definitely impacted its 'streaming numbers' but honestly, who cares when Adele managed to break Britney's record  legendary and iconiqué to this very moment

I see now it’s been stated higher up, 25 was released to streaming 7 months after release!

 

and 21 was released to spotify i think 1,5 years after its release. And it’s at 3.83 billions streams now 

[Eternium]

Britney being so high with no single released in five years. Almost everyone else is getting boosts from releasing in the streaming era and having high playlisting. Imagine when she finally does the same  

[Sharapov]

how has zara larsson got 711m streams in 2021? and tones and i 3b? wtf?

[Sharapov]

#10. Kesha - Warrior 652M

Britney's streams are very impressive to be honest, her back catalogue is truly immaculate.
