3 +1  Future - Life Is Good (Official Music Video) ft. Drake   4,700,095

 

I'm really confused at this still smashing so hard.

the song is "only" #81 on Spotify and #69 on AM (and rap songs tend to do way better on the on-demand platforms than YT). YT is a mess tbh

 

 

Biggest 2020 videos:

1. Life Is Good | 713M

2. GOOBA | 451M

3. Yummy | 439M

4. Yo Perreo Sola | 310M

5. How You Like That | 280M

 

the lead alone is big. and this would be like the first year where the biggest video is a 100% hip-hop track in forever, so weird (latin or pop videos tend to dominate)

It's that low on Spotify/AM because of the new albums from Pop Smoke and Juice WRLD. It's been pretty consistent on YouTube since it dropped.

yeah true but these YT numbers are still insane, especially considering how dead is YT in 2020

 

No Guidance was as massive last year yet it has less than 400M views (both video and audio combined)

Toosie Slide has basically the same amount of Spotify streams yet it still needs to reach 200M views (I'm pretty sure it was also a bigger global hit, and being global = more views, usually).

LIG is obviously getting lots of recommended/next-up listings.

yeah that's what I thought. and that's why I think YT is "messy", AM/Spotify definitely became better tools of how successful a song has been, even despite all the complains about "playlists payola"

I actually did get one yesterday, I've probably streamed LIG like 50 times on YT compared to like 20 on Spotify messs

[fridayteenage]

tho per kworb the most watched video this year is...

El Chombo - Dame Tu Cosita

 

even though it's from early 2018

[Heart.me]

What's up with those random Anuel AA songs in the top 100 (US) one day and OUT the next and then back super high again the next day... really fishy, Is this the same payola Tyga used? @iHype. ?

fff I just checked he has had songs re-entering and leaving the charts everyday for weeks  I don't even know where to begin or what purpose they are trying to achieve 

[Starkboy]

I thought it was just a Spotifycharts.com glitch (having them being new-entries when they were already charting). I can't

US numbers are really poor considering its population, but of course you have to take into account:

 

- Corona is affecting streams there in particular 

- AM is way bigger in the US than the rest of the world (as big if not bigger than Spotify, while AM is kinda irrelevant outside)

- this is not a Summer rich of hits

 

 

 

[gotportugal]

@Starkboy not a surprise honestly, these countries are continuing to warm up to Spotify

The #100th most streamed song on Spotify reached 1 billion streams (Youngblood by 5SOS)

This is huge for a country artist. I've noticed that some country artists do better on Apple Music than Spotify
