Only 1 artist (Drake) is excelling very well from Streaming being included, and it's because he has record breaking numbers so ofcourse, streaming should be more reflected in his numbers than an average album's. If 85% of the artists had more streams then sales then I could see why you'd have a valid reason to complain.

I'm a supporter of streaming being in the BB200 but the way it is rn is so bleh. Like an album being streamed 3x as much as its bought isn't a good look to me (and I love Drake). If anything it shows people are only streaming the album instead of buying it. I think the way and weight it's calculated at needs a re-evaluation.
Like even ANTI, which has not sold all that well but is a streaming hit, has been exaggerated. And the sad part is I was probably one of the Rih stans that was like "woo Anti #1 in its 8th week queen" but I'm getting sick of 1/3 sales and 2/3 streaming scenarios. Drake is just a striking example of this, hence why I keep bringing him up. IDK it makes the charts odd and something doesn't sit well with me.
