Normani accused of falsely inflating 'Candy Paint' audio views


Recommended Posts

Although Normani's new single 'Candy Paint' did not chart in the Top 200 of Global/US Spotify during it's release week, the single has performed exceptionally well in Youtube audio streams, even trending on the platform, leading fans to celebrate online.

However, some fans have noticed an alarming discrepancy in the Youtube statistics for Candy Paint: despite accumulating 1 million views so quickly, it has less than 15k likes, and less than 2k comments.

 

This caused many to call out Normani's team for needlessly wasting money on Youtube ads to inflate the view count for the audio - although this is not an uncommon practice, this has never occurred before to promote an audio video. Normani's album will release in just weeks - is this a wise decision?

Of course Youtube views are fake but Spotify streams are too. Everyone manipulate them.

I'm not sure why this is being made into an issue. Many major artists regularly invest in YouTube ads, and it's a highly effective way to promote songs since they appear on popular playlists. At least her team is  doing something.

 

Only on ATRL would this be turned into a tired gotcha moment.:deadbanana4:

If they wanted to use ads, they should've done that for the music video, not a f*cking audio :rip: wtf are they thinking

Unless there's no music video planned at all...

I think the aim is to get one of the. these songs to catch on and only then will they do a Music Video for it.
