With it looking likely for benson this week hopefully both Ariana and djo get their turns too in the coming weeks!
Shocking that the US Billboard chart with it's infamously slow turnover at the top has had more than double the amount of new #1s this year than the UK so far (5-2).

Yeah, the US has already had 7 new #1s already this year, compared to 16 across the whole of last year.

 

It may well be 8 very soon, as Teddy Swims is looking likely to get to the top next week.

It has become easier to get a US 1 with the whole 8 versions of the same song at discount price. Billboard seem slow to respond

To be fair they did completely demolish fanbase buying via artist websites with rule updates last year. That's part of the reason artists are releasing so many versions now to try and get around that.

Those album sales for Justin are genuinely shocking. He really should have been an easy #1 this week.
I’d be happy with Kacey or Justin getting #1 but would prefer Kacey (unlikely I know :lol: ) I just hope it’s something new and not Ariana again

 

Well colour me surprised :w00t: I’m shocked by those numbers for Kacey following the lukewarm response to star-crossed, she deserves it though. Also shocked (in a bad way) by Justin’s numbers, I really underestimated how far he’s fallen from grace

Very unusually for me I really like all 4 songs in the running for #1 this week. Beyonce probably a bit less than the others but it's still a 7/10. Rarely like Ariana's songs but this one's excellent.

 

On course to be my favourite top 4 for many years!

I'm the opposite, think they are a 0/10 :)

 

Surprised Ariana isn't closer, thought she's be doing slightly better on streaming this week

 

Shocking result from Justin in albums, not even 4K is a huge disaster. Thought he'd do at least 15K but he'll be lucky to do 5K at the rate he's going... Glad for Kacey though <3

It has not, this is just your childish attempt number 2345978432978234 at downgrading Ariana's success

What has she done to you? Ariana is the definition of harmless vanilla artist, she's not someone that polarises fanbases ala Gaga or Madonna, so really don't get the hate

Being #1 in the US is no easy feat, even a few weeks ago Kanye was doing 2 million streams on Spotify per week but was nowhere close to #1 cos os lack of airplay, he had to increase and go over 3 million streams to achieve the #1... even Noah Kahan with one of the most popular tracks in recent months, only managed to peak at #10 again cos of lack or aiplay... I'd say the opposite, much more hard to get a US #1

What you’re saying makes no sense to the discussion. It was pointed out that the US is usually harder to get to 1 but there have been numerous this year, I gave a solid reason why and you went back to why it’s usually more difficult to get to 1 in the US. How do you miss the point like that?

 

Yes and, hiss and maybe a few more would not have been 1 without this new multiple version tactic hence what I’m saying makes total sense.

I wonder how close the singles race is this week. I am hoping Benson Boone this week and Djo next week.
