Any explanation how Bodak Yellow has so many more chart points than Taylor, even though Taylor is leading in airplay and sales and only behind about 5 million streams?

you answered for yourself

Streaming counts for that much now?

5m streaming is something like 30-35 points

[nick4bty]

I guess it makes sense in a normal context, but not for three songs being above 30M streams which is where the chart difference lies. For example, if #1 song had 15 million streams and #2 song had 10 million streams that's 33% more streams, which is obviously a huge difference. 

[UNNAMI]

the difference beetwen cardi and taylor is close to 20-25 points.

 

Cardi has lead of streaming - 30-35 points 

taylor has lead in radion 75m vs 60m - 15m of radio is something like 10 points, 30/35 minus 10 gets something 20-25 points, that's the difference

1-800 could make up the sales loss with its huge radio momentum, Scars teas

So Taylor doesn't have much of a chance next week even with the new iTunes lead?

If she uploads the BTS videos on her main channel and make them available on mobiles she'll have it but her team loves the self-sabotage

And I didn't use any airplay for Post Malone because Billboard didn't give any data for that  

 

I think they are underestimating Cardi's streams though

 

Don't use those numbers 

 

35m for Cardi is stupid. It had 41m last week and increased

 

Too low for Post and Taylor too but not as much as Cardi.

Post airplay is minimal. Not top 50 in any format yet

Don't think the current lead is big enough. If it keeps increasing she has a good chance

I really thought Taylor was going to sit on that #1 for at least 10 weeks. 

What happened?

Nothing really happened, because it's typical for her first singles, let's not...

Nothing that happened after the first day ever suggested 10 weeks. And of all her singles this would have been a very weird one to get 10 weeks

I don't really follow the charts or Western music for that matter anymore so I was just surprised cause the song was huge the week it was released. It's more interesting this way anyways. I like when charts are dynamic (especially top 3).

Rake it up can go top 5

When’s the last time two female rappers were in the top 10? This is great

1 Bodak Yellow     420  (+1)

2 Look What You Made Me Do     387  (-1)

31 Ready For It     135  (-10)

So basically Ready For It potentially "stole" 135 points from Look What You Made Me Do  

 

Look What You Made Me Do would have had 522 points and been far above Bodak Yellow

Ready For It came along and leeched off tons of airplay and potential sales and streams

What in the world 

 

You think every person who bought or streamed RFI would have bought or streamed LWYMMD instead 

The overlap of people who already bought LWYMMD and also bought RFI is probably pretty high and I really think the promo helped more streaming wise than it hurt, but maybe it cost a few Spotify streams... Not that RFI is killing there either. 

Youtube you just have the video on her personal account that's blocked on mobile, so that certainly stole nothing.

 

Maybe RFI really stole some airpaly, but nothing close to 30 points
