ATRL Moderator wehavetostan Posted May 19, 2021 ATRL Moderator Posted May 19, 2021 It seems like Billboard was trying to come up with a reason not to have Levitating at number one, hence the delay.

Comedor Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Maybe I'm too old, but I feel like a H100 #1 is pretty much irrelevant when you have an era as big as FN. She doesn't need validation. There are #1s out there that handless impact.

magazine Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Oh well, it's okay. The song didn't deserve it either way, she has a freaking Physical in her discography way more worthy of a #1 But I legit cannot understand how that Bruno Mars song got #1. I haven't heard about it since its release wtf But go off, I guess, miss Mars Maybe the song is extremely local
torimin Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 BTS will debut at number #1 losers, their fanbase never used fraudulent methods to buy their music, they sold out rose bowl twice, there's no bots, no vpns and no more than 4 orders per order, y'all are losers that don't understand anything about chart rules

highwind44029 Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Dua being used as a sacrificial pawn by Billboard but BTS could STILL snatch that #1 anyway.
Jaspurr Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Trolling aside, this needs more clarification. I know no one in the real world cares about stuff like this but for the sake of professionalism Billboard needs to publish a separate article with an in-depth explanation.
ClashAndBurn Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Needless to say, if this isn't going #1, I think it's safe to say that Dua Lipa will never get one here. Doubt she'll ever have a bigger hit than this, and she doesn't have much of a fanbase in the US. 18 minutes ago, Delirious said: im happy and sad at the same time im happy because dababy wont be getting another #1 PERIOD BUT Dua deserved this SO MUCH. Why did she have to collab with that monster? (I love Dua but it's what she lowkey deserves for collabing with him unless she was forced by her label) "Levitating" was never getting this high without DaBaby. The song was flopping both as a solo track and The Blessed Madonna Remix, and his verse significantly elevated the track. "That's what she lowkey deserves" indeed.

PurrKaty Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Amazing that the song hit #2. But so shady of billboard to choose to audit sales this week. Like where was the audit the weeks of Stuck with U, Say So remix, Savage remix, Trollz, Dynamite, Franchise, Savage Love remix, Life Goes On? Love a lot of these songs but we all know fans mass bought and shady sales happened with most of these and more! All I know is BTS should have like 80% of their sales deducted next week then if this is billboards new audit standard. 1
LookinAssHittas Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 (edited) I feel so bad for Dua and her fans. This is so unfair, she deserved to go #1 after releasing an amazing album and having a great era. And can someone please explain to me how website sales are fraudulent? If fans are willing to LEGALLY buy extra copies on an artist’s website, then what’s the problem? Dua was robbed omg Edited May 19, 2021 by LookinAssHittas 1

Green Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Billboard increased radio influence this week. This also helped Bruno Points for the top 2: 1 Leave The Door Open 299 2 Levitating 297 1
