BB200: Madonna #1 (134k, 114k pure), Olivia #2 (103k), Sienna Spiro #9 (39k)
And she did this without a hit single or radio support. Radio hasnt touched a single of hers since the infamous GMAYL radio deal 14 years ago. She's a living legend and the GP still respects her when she's serving.

Hot 100 | Final predictions (7/18): Texas #1 (x13), IKIIKY #2, ICLYA #4, Dracula #5
Is the general public that bored they literally don't have anything else to listen to than a 2025 song in the middle of the summer? Or are streaming playlists forcing charts to become stale?

BB200: Olivia #1 485k | H100: Taylor #1x2, Olivia #3, #4, #6 & #9
This must be the first time since Morgan Wallen's debut that we have this many solo female songs in the top 10 (not counting Taylor release week).

The lowest streamed Billboard Hot 100 #1 Hits of the past 50 years on Spotify
It's not a fair comparison. Many of these songs came out back when streaming didn't exist and the people who stanned them probably don't even use streaming that often. Nowadays even irrelevant top 30 peaking songs can easily outstream these as there's literally no other way for them to be consumed.

***** by Lizzo: 3.7k units sold
Did the GP even become aware of the abuse allegations? It's a combination of terrible music, poor promo and she was never that relevant in the first place. She had the exact same run as Meghan Trainor where the public moved on after the novelty.

US Americans, why do you always put your grandparents in nursing homes?
Why wouldnt they? I wish it was common practice worldwide. No one should be morally obligated to change their life plans significantly to take care of their elderly parents. Especially when they didn't save up for retirement and their plan was always to pass the responsibility to their offspring.

Hot 100 final predictions (6/20/26): I Knew It, I Knew You #1 with 402pts
And what's the alternative? A country ballad song released in 2025 spending its 10th week at #1 in the middle of the summer? Is that THE most popular song? Is it Drake's 30th album track? The Hot 100 formula is flawed because music is not consumed the same way it was 10-15 years ago. Audiences don't centralize their consumption around what's hot. Music consumption is disperse and individualistic. Look at Billie Jean of all things getting 4 consecutive top 20 weeks…
