How is Drake fudged number one weeks any different from One More Night? Y'all trashed that for saying on top so long but calling this wack trash a legend which he is far from with those tragic album sales.
Well, Drake is still Top 3-4 in sales on a week to week basis so it's not like he's #15 in sales and still #1. Not his fault bigger artists aren't releasing.
Looks like Rihanna will now break the record for most weeks in the SPS T10 without being in the sales T10 (18).
Good. This is to expose all the haters who try to trash her in public but secretly listen to her music when no one is watching. Back in the day they used to download her albums illegally and then turn around and try to shade her for not selling. Now their consumption is being recorded and accounted for by Billboard. And most importantly they are putting more coin in Rih's purse.

Queen. The biggest DIGITAL artist of all time adjusting effortlessly to the change in music industry climate on her way to becoming the biggest STREAMING artist of all time.
DJ Khaled currently holds the edge for a #1 Sales Plus Streaming (SPS) bow this week and looks to prevent longtime chart champ Drake's 13th non-consecutive chart-topping week. Khaled’s Apple exclusive album, Major Key (We The Best/Epic) enjoyed strong streaming and sales numbers over the weekend; the fact that users of Spotify, Tidal and other rival streaming services can’t hear the album in its entirety may well have helped spike downloads.
It’s noteworthy, though, that none of the three Khaled tracks that did go wide—including “For Free” f/Drake—appear on Spotify’s influential Rap Caviar and Today’s Top Hits playlists. Is Spotify pushing back against Apple exclusives? What will be the eventual impact of their being left off of these very popular platforms? Stay tuned. In the meantime, here’s how the week’s new releases are looking.
DJ Khaled (We The Best/Epic) 90-100k SPS, 60-65k album
Jake Owen (RCA Nashville) 32-37k, 28-32k
Fantasia (RCA) 28-32k, 27-30k
Hillary Scott & The Scott Family (EMI Nashville) 21-23k, 18-20k
Knew they were underestimating him, lots of people are talking about the album.
