Adonis Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 (edited) Whew yeah... told ya'll billboard was a hot mess and their tech stack was a hot mess. They didn't believe me. Here we are today. Edited August 2, 2017 by Adonis
Konril Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 Is this the longest wait for a chart update aside from delays due to holidays? We're entering Day 2 of waiting.

In modern times, I don't think they charts have been delayed this long, especially the BB200 (which was due 3 days ago).
americanlife Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 This is unprofessional and ridiculous. What exactly is causing this, Tidal?
UnusualBoy Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 I can't at no chart for neither the albums nor the singles chart. I'm starting to think this whole thing is part of Mariah's plan to avoid Luis and Yankee to get her record, slick queen!

The way how they are wording the delay is that a streaming platform has not delivered the results. However, if you look at the streams of Meek and Tyler and compare them, it is so obvious that the Tidal data is already in there.

Billboard wyd?

Tidal might get exposed very soon, we'll see.
Kiss It Better Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 if the delay is because of tidal then billboard should just stop counting tidal for their charts because they've been exposed several times for reporting fake numbers anyway

Like who would want to have their music on the service if it doesn't count, I sure woudn't, I'd have my fans listen to me on youtube or spotify or somewhere else where it counts. I would not mind tidal closing though
DripDrip Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 Jay Z is probably trying to strike a deal with Billboard to get Meek that #1 and legally report their fake numbers as true. The legal negotiations and papers being processed are probably what's taking so long!
QueenofCopyPaste Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 Despacito's 13th week is on lock with 1 day sales left. Its hitting 3 billion views on Friday
Hector Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 I still don't see why US Billboard is delaying so much. Lana is already #1 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart: http://www.fyimusicnews.ca/fyi-charts/5181/CAN
QueenofCopyPaste Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 15th tracking week competition: P!nk If Despacito reaches 15th week at #1..it would likely determine or at least give us an idea if it will tie or break the record

infrared Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 not ya'll starting a countdown as if a hurricane just ripped through and now you're waiting for evac.

The only value they could offer is the cheating and posting fake values to make artists look more successful than they are. Once that's gone, there is no reason for artists to stay.

I guess TIDAL couldn't give him enough fake streams up there to help him out.
brianc33710 Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 Couldn't BB at least update its airplay charts? Country took care of this on its end around midnight Monday.
