Just further proof how messed up the chart system is 1 hour ago, sugarysunflower said: 1) Billboard need to adjust their system, diminishing achievements of the past for a week’s run. (Similar to Drake’s drops) 2) Janet achieved seven TOP FIVE hits from the same album, not just top 10. 3) These are chart entries, not “hits”. Most of them will fall out soon. 4) Janet’s Hot 100 RN singles were all separately and independently run across 18 months which is more impressive. 5) Rhythm Nation LP also went number one on the 1990 year end. Who knows yet where Midnight will sit. Rhythm Nation’s achievements and records are not being diminished at all. OMG, seriously all so true! I think we should all protest outside of Billboard HQ to make our voices heard on this momentous issue. Who’s with me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But even if we want to simply look at it from a "top 10 songs from a single album" perspective, they can't be compared if we add contest to it - as it should be right to do. Janet's record belong to a total different age of music and charts. At the time, there was no chance to have album tracks charting on release week and there is no way to know if Janet's or any other's album could achieve a similar record (or even huger ones). With this said, kudos to Taylor because no one was able to achieve it prior to her! Edited October 24, 2022 by SimSim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s impossible to equate them and doesn’t diminish Janet’s achievement at all. Pointless chart achievement when no doubt all but 1 or 2 will plummet next week and will be forgotten within 6 months and never remembered as top 10 hits.

KKKIMO92 Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 The system nowadays makes big artists debut their album in the single chart while it’s impossible to do so in the previous days. Good for Taylor having this power but yeah, she doesn’t have enough top 10 hits compared to Janet or Madonna. She’s got more entries but all will disappear in a short period of time. She’s done it with Mine back in 2013 (around that time), so she’s powerful to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 And guys times are different. Back then only official singles were allowed to chart on the Hot 100 Janet even had another radio hit from Rhythmic Nation (State of the World) that peaked at #5 on radio but it couldn't chart because it wasn't an official single Drake has been destroying the Hot 100 for years with top 10s that free fall a week later and he broke Madonna's top 10 record thanks to that so it's nothing new. That doesn't mean those one week top 10s were more popular overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All that to avoid admitting Katy broke MJ's record with Part of Me. its so childish lol. Thats literally Katys records. Since when are deluxe songs not part of the era Thats like saying Super Bass isnt a top 3 hit off of pink friday lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bringdanoize Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 (edited) Actually Taylor’s achievement is more impressive. Only based on demand. It is easier to manipulate radio in 80s than receive GP support so huge that you can occupy all spots in top10. And for the ones who say that Taylor’s songs won’t be remembered, do Janet’s 8 top10 remembered? Edited October 24, 2022 by bringdanoize Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
