I deleted it from the thread. I prefer to rely on facts instead of speculation, so my post was hypocritical at best.
brianc33710 Posted August 1, 2017 Posted August 1, 2017 Also, a few years back, HDD had The Weekend debuting at #1 (Triology?). However, BB determined some of his sales were free. The race for #1 that week was really tight. After removing the free sales from The Weekend's totals, Keith Urban won #1 by just 2-3 k copies.

Is there an article on that?

If you go on Bing and look up the discography for Weekend and Urban, BB's article link should still come up. This was probably back in 2014, when The Weekend wasn't as well known.

Fetish for MiMi Posted August 1, 2017 Posted August 1, 2017 not even a full lana stan but she NEEDS to get that #1
J a y Posted August 1, 2017 Posted August 1, 2017 How tf is this still going on? I thought the album charted already. So many presumptuous threads about it I thought # was last week. It's been twelve days. Normal?!
Lovesong Posted August 1, 2017 Posted August 1, 2017 Now watch Billboard give number one to Meek or Tyler just to prove their point. You know why? Because it's stupid yelling about injustice without means to change it. The subject matter should not depend on close chart battle to number one on Billboard 200. It's about fraud, and fraud matters no matter top or bottom-small or big act. This clickbait soap opera will slap back HDD ass (and credibility) even if Lana gets number one.

I would write chapters to this script if I knew 18,000 atrl visitors alone were on the edge of their seats for nearly two weeks. I knew people took an interest but I've never seen this much drama. Let's hope Lana gets the #1.... What they doing, counting each unit by hand?!
brianc33710 Posted August 1, 2017 Posted August 1, 2017 Okay, BB just published its Country Weekly Update. I'm not online where I can easily share the link though.

brianc33710 Posted August 1, 2017 Posted August 1, 2017 I would think would be more likely a little later this morning. With less than 5k units separating 1-3, this is likely the closest finish in years. However, I can see how the Meek Mill streaming controversy also complicates the results.
duybeeGAshantiGA Posted August 1, 2017 Posted August 1, 2017 Why do I hate BB this much. Do they really think they are really the BiBle of music. They are losing credibility everyday.
Yooorsh Posted August 1, 2017 Posted August 1, 2017 Wait. Not this being High By The Beach being top ten part. 2
