I'm just quoting what the Beyhive says when there is a thread about achievements of her solo career 

No, you're quoting what the Hive says when it's a thread about her overall career. Had you been able to tell the difference, you wouldn't have attempted this failed troll attempt.

The Nicki drop when you get rid of her cheap features

And I oop

[PoisonPill]

The ones with fewer entries but >90% solo are the most impressive. It really brings into perspective that even though Madonna and Rihanna are listed together as the biggest all-time female singles artists, Madonna will always be on her own pedestal. 

Also Olivia, Billie, Cher, Avril

[Scars]

Miley with 43 solo entries and above many "MPGs!!!!!!!". 

 

The way all of her big hits are solo too. A legend.

The legend that Miley Ray Cyrus is, is even hard for me as a fan to grasp sometimes QUEEN

This should be about SINGLES, because nowadays any song can get an entry without even been a single. Look at Taylor fake numbers

It's interesting how Billboard attempts to crack down on mass buying/chart tactics but let Swifter clog up the charts with re-recordings/1 week charting songs suddenly throughout the pandemic to create a "wide gap" between her and her peers numbers.

The songs about being consumed. What are they supposed to do? You can't blame Taylor for being too loved and popular.

Nope, is about PAYOLA

those song are consumed because the album was launched and are counted twice: as song in Hot100 and album.

 

In the past only singles were counted as hot100 entry.

 

So, Taylor numbers are not impressive but just payola.

It's not PAYOLA. It's about how the charts work. You can send an email to Billboard I guess.

How is it payola lol, that's just how the charts work. 

 

Even before streaming, Taylor was one of the few artists to chart several album tracks on the week of her album releases.

Is Payola when you change rules just in favour of someone, in this case, Taylor

Just face it. Nothing wrong with that.

What rule was changed in favor of Taylor?

What rule could they change that would benefit Taylor alone? I am certain any change would benefit others in the same situation. If Billboard changed the rules for Taylor, then other singers would get in line and adapt to that rule. Over 17 years in Taylor's career, I am certain any other singer could adapt to the change. And even with that, Taylor still achieves greater numbers.  Madonno says that Taylor's numbers are not impressive because they include non-singles, but that doesn't make sense. Isn't it more impressive that your whole discography is more popular (singles and non-singles) as no one else has a wider consumption of album tracks? That's the fact, not Payola.

This would be a case for those with albums whose album runs are carried by a singular hit and next to nothing from the rest of the tracks combined, which is not the case for Tay’s albums

 

also, she has a 2010 album that debuted with over a million pure sales on the bb200 and still managed to chart all of it’s tracks on the hot100 and that was before streaming/sps got included on either chart, which means she doesn’t need any help since she’s been doing all this way before anyone and despite the changes that happened ever since, most still can’t manage to do any of it

Like your whole career is just features?

If Beyoncé's number was 80%, you would post "everything under 81% is embarrassingly low"

What rules were changed?  Even back in 2008, Fearless charted album tracks on the Hot 100. You guys should really do more research before speaking, it's getting ridiculous at this point.
