Just a Gay on ATRL Posted March 18 Posted March 18 Her #1 hits: Thank U, Next 7 Rings Stuck With U Rain On Me Positions Save Your Tears (Remix) Die for You (Remix) Yes, And? We Can’t Be Friends (Waiting for Love) It’s crazy she didn’t get any #1s her first 4 albums, and now she is just racking them up left and right since late 2018 14

Klein Posted March 18 Posted March 18 5 minutes ago, ARTPØP said: I agree. And this is honestly no shade to Drake, at all, but more so shade towards Billboard. This is why I hate album bombs, tbh. Drake now has 77 top 10 "hits" but I feel as if (over the last 4-5 years at least) 70%+ of these top tens were just album songs that spent less than 15-20 weeks on the chart and were never played on radio or made any sales. They're just frontloaded streaming "hits" -- which is okay, I guess, but these over-powered streaming bombs literally bury all of the more well-balanced hits off of the chart and it's getting tiresome to look at as a chart freak lol. Like I don't care who the artist is, whole albums shouldn't be debuting in the top 20, its just overkill. I kinda agree but it's more nuanced. I'm a very big advocate for the most popular songs in any given week to be the ones at the top of the chart. That's literally their purpose. That's why I hate the recurrent rules for example. But there's a conversation to be had about albums being so popular that every song gets a very high entry on the charts. Taking Midnights example because that's the one I know well, of course the top 10 songs were the most consumed songs of the week, but at the same time, it was more so because the album was extremely popular as a whole. I don't know if it's possible to come up with a rule that seems fair to treat these gigantic album bombs, but that's definitely a conversation to be had. Maybe we could just subtract the streams from the least streamed song of any given album to all the other songs. The remaining streams would count for the song while the minimal streams each song has would count towards the album? For example Track 1 - 500k streams Track 2 - 400k streams Track 3 - 300k streams Track 4 - 200k streams Track 5 - 100k streams 100k streams of each track (so 500k total) would count towards the album's SEA, while 400k streams would count for Track 1 on the H100, 300k for track 2... and 0 streams for track 5? I don't know if I'm clear, or if it makes sense, or if it's even a good idea. Just something I thought about on the spot. But this would dilute the impact of massively popular albums on the singles chart. 1 1
Ger Posted March 18 Posted March 18 Congratulations, excellent song at #1 Perhaps one of Ari's best #1 hits. 2
wantedyoutogrow Posted March 18 Posted March 18 TOTC said top 15, the label said top 10, but the public said Top 1… 3 3

That would still be true if you halved his Top 10's and kept it true to his actual memorable hits. A UK-like rule must be implemented. Unfortunately it would not be retroactive. 1
Tm4074 Posted March 18 Posted March 18 Ariana becomes the first female artist with multiple albums with multiple #1 debuts: #1 Daydream - Mariah Carey (One Sweet Day & Fantasy) #2 thank u, next - Ariana Grande (thank u, next & 7 rings) #3 SOUR - Olivia Rodrigo (drivers license & good 4 u) #4 eternal sunshine - Ariana Grande (yes, and? & we can't be friends) Albums of this decade with multiple number ones: - After Hours: Heartless/Blinding Lights/Save Your Tears - SOUR: drivers license/good 4 u - MONTERO: Call Me by Your Name/Industry Baby - For All The Dogs: Slime You Out/First Person Shooter - eternal sunshine: yes, and?/We Can't Be Friends So much for her Witness era. 6

SinnerCity Posted March 18 Posted March 18 So deserving! After people thought Ariana would flop she comes back scoring not one but two #1 singles and a #1 album! Ariana the pop icon that you are! 3

Problem, Bang Bang, Side to Side, & NTLTC were really robbed. Plenty of other songs deserved, but these are the HITS that feel snatched away to me. OT: congrats on #9 queen
