Those sales don't make much sense  and the streaming numbers don't add up AT ALL like all Spotify data is public, so are AM charts  

[Harry]

all these hopes and fears by both sides. I was okay for a #2 but not anymore. baby let the games begin, let the games begin

[Wolf Alice]

What is this Tidal'd mess  Even the BTS fans are shocked

Must be website sales and Tidal streams I guess

Fenty coins being put to good use. Suddenly I’m ok with her selling makeup

[Doogle]

This thread is so funny

 

I’ve missed ATRL being pressed over Rihanna being such a strong singles girl. I definitely believe the iTunes crowd that didn’t move on to streaming would be here for Rihanna like this. She was huge on that platform

[YellowRibbon]

Elvira Remixes should be out soon

the song will be doing barely 6.9-7M from spotify for whole week. 

there is no way its doing 27.4M its simply impossible and highly wrong.

 

day 1 2.1M

day2 1.1M

day3 745k

day4 770k

day5 700k

day6 750k

day7 750k

 

even if she do 750k for rest of the days it wont add up the 27.4M when you adjust streams to other streaming platforms.

[Cruel Summer]

It’s not really adding up, but okay, Billy Board!

This logic makes no sense when she is currently sitting at #3 on iTunes

Let me add an extra laugh 

[Green]

I hope the Navy goes hard and she gets it

 

Some people are doing too much with the conspiracy theories 

 

Hold Me Closer sold 48k

 

Do we have a problem also sold 48k

 

What's so weird about Rihanna doing these sales with a comeback song after 5 years?

She's not even #1 on iTunes right now  

[MardinBeksloy]

Imagine her not hitting #1 with these payolas

[rihannafan]

people are forgetting the song has like 10 youtube videos with decent views that count for streaming. If rihanna cared about charts like that why wouldn't she release a commercial song? Not every artist is chart obsessed like other faves

I was referring to the first few days lmao. BTS have astronomical sales, it’s completely reasonable that she sold well too. 

 

You lot are so dense on purpose it’s kind of sad

spotify is biggest streaming platform in the US and she is doing barely 7M 

 

 

if you x4 that 7M it makes =28m

 

which streaming platform can x4 her stresming numbers? 

 

there is none. 

 

tidal came thru i guess 

 

even if she did another 7M from apple music, which is hard to believe when she is literally #31 there right now 

 

and another 7M from youtube and amazon and others = its all barely 21M 

 

simple as that.

youtube streams are not weighted higher than paid streams. 

+ her youtube streaming numbers are not that huge to make up that difference between her and taylor.

Those 27k sales are for the first 3 days when she was being blocked by that BTS member that had big sales too. Today she has website sales, so maybe her stans are buying more in her website today

a quick search would show you that the videos have 41m views worldwide on youtube. plus she is #1 on pandora and had a big first day on apple music. Do you I really need to spoonfeed you this and hold your hand through it?
