Her last album is classified as an traditional pop album by many, she also isn't the best example for EDM/Metal/Folk etc so if she isn't pop then i don't really know what genre Barbra belongs to

The ticket deal is basic marketing though, there's nothing shady in "buy this, redeem a bundle".

The sales/streaming rule is completely ridiculous. It does not in any way reflect the popularity of the album - as we're seeing in the case of Mark Ronson at the moment. Like, what's the point of even having an album chart, or a singles chart for that matter, under these rules? It completely invalidates the concepts.
