Mariah was top 100 on spotify Friday-Monday and top 200 on spotify on Tuesday still. Those streams account for ~7.5k sales plus other streaming services would push that to 9-10k. Once you add in the digital sales then it seems about right that Mariah is #39. So I don't think there's much streaming data missing in today's chart.

 

 

Streaming almost certainly hasn't been included for most of the week. I'm thinking Christmas Day only.

Biography

Abel Tesfaye (born February 16, 1990), known by his stage name The Weeknd, is a Canadian PBR&B recording artist and record producer. In late 2010, Tesfaye anonymously uploaded several songs to YouTube under the name "The Weeknd". He released three nine-track mixtapes throughout 2011: House of Balloons, Thursday, and Echoes of Silence, which were critically acclaimed. The following year, he released a compilation album, Trilogy, consisting of remastered versions of the mixtape material and three additional songs. It was released under Republic Records and his own label XO. In 2013, he released his debut studio album Kiss Land, which was supported by the singles "Kiss Land", and "Live For".

 

The Weeknd has received praise from several music publications, including Pitchfork, MTV, BET, Rolling Stone, XXL and The Source. MTV's John Norris has dubbed him the "songbird of his generation" and the "best musical talent since Michael Jackson". - Wikipedia

Still don't like The Hills :puke2:

I'm not sure that there is streaming missing - thinking about it a lot of the older songs will be rising from being streamed heavily last night!

The Hills is great.

No idea. There isn't even confirmation of which days of streaming haven't been included, but there must be some data missing or 'Light It Up' would have climbed.

But don't they upweight missing data usually?

Light It Up would have been easily top 40 if there wasn't streaming data missing. :(

Why is streaming not included?

Getting up-to-date streaming data seems to have been a problem ever since the chart moved to Friday.

Ew at Shut Up :puke2: :puke2: :puke2:

The Hills :wub: & Shut Up :wub:

I wish he'd do that. This is awful.

Shut Up Stormzy.

I'm thinking the gift card effect has just made sales have more weight than usual this week. Instead of the ratio being 70/30, maybe it's more like 55/45?

Surely "The Hills" wouldn't have climbed if there was a lot of streaming data missing though?

Mariah was top 100 on spotify Friday-Monday and top 200 on spotify on Tuesday still. Those streams account for ~7.5k sales plus other streaming services would push that to 9-10k.

The early streaming is in but the late streaming has to be missing if Major Lazer missed... he was #13 on Spotify on Wednesday and #10 yesterday...

Biography

Aubrey Drake Graham (born October 24, 1986) is a Canadian rapper, singer, songwriter and actor. He was born in Toronto, Ontario. He first garnered recognition for his role as Jimmy Brooks on the television series Degrassi: The Next Generation. He later rose to prominence as a rapper, releasing several mixtapes before signing to Lil Wayne's Young Money Entertainment in June 2009.

 

Drake's EP, So Far Gone (2009), spawned singles "Best I Ever Had" and "Successful". His first studio album, Thank Me Later (2010), debuted at number one on the Billboard 200and generated notable singles, "Over" and "Find Your Love". It was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). His second album, Take Care (2011), is his most successful to date, topping charts in the United States and Canada and producing multiple hit singles, including "Headlines", "Take Care", "Make Me Proud", and "The Motto", the last of which is also credited for popularizing the widely used acronym YOLO. In promotion of Take Care, Drake embarked on the worldwide Club Paradise Tour, which became the most successful hip-hop tour of 2012, grossing over $42 million. His third studio album Nothing Was the Same was released on September 24, 2013. It was supported by the singles "Started from the Bottom", "Hold On, We're Going Home", "All Me" and "The Language".

 

Drake has sold over 5 million albums worldwide. His work has earned him a Grammy Award, three Juno Awards, six BET Awards, and set several significant Billboard records. With twelve number-one singles, Drake has more than any other artist on Billboard's Hot Rap Songs chart. With ten number-one singles, he also has more than any other rapper on Billboard‍ '​s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, passing Jay-Z in August 2012. He is one of two artists (the other being 50 Cent) that has simultaneously occupied the chart's top three positions.

 

Drake, along with being a record producer under the pseudonym Champagne Papi, has also written songs for other artists, including Alicia Keys ("Un-Thinkable (I'm Ready)"), Rita Ora ("R.I.P."), Jamie Foxx and Trey Songz. - Wikipedia

Light It Up would have been easily top 40 if there wasn't streaming data missing. :(

Didn't it fall a lot on downloads this week though? I know it's climbing again now, but I wasn't expecting it to climb this week...

 

Thursday streaming data is never included ever though

Ah, had forgotten about that... Maybe they found a way to get the data on time because it's a special case on New Year's Eve?

Hotline Bling is horrific.
