Seems like urban songs don't really sell that much(they never have in the past 5 years unless they crossover) but they are benefitting from the streaming and do really well on the streaming charts to make up for the lack of sales.
Something I noticed: 
*Lifestyle still top 20 
 was obsessed with it a couple of months ago
* Shocked to see No type almost top 20 and peaking way higher than No flex zone(I thought that one went top 20 since everyone made a remix of it).
*big Sean's IDFWY is selling A LOT 
 slay!!!! 
* Tuesday increasing on sales but dropping to #26 on the H100 
* Jeremih missed the top 5 because he never released a video 
WTF @ this

 And everyone of those urban tracks are terrible and bad representation of the genre.

I swear it probably has had enough points to go T50 multiple times throughout the past few years and BB is just stopping it from doing so. It's still absolutely massive and getting tons of streams every week.

 Urban songs are being pirated and the only way they are being counted on the Hot 100 is through steaming. Streaming is being rap back on the charts.

 If YouTube streaming was included when GS was slaying it'll probably get 10+ weeks at #1.

 The final chart for the 2014 Chart Year comes out next week. I was hoping the ACMs would take place BEFORE the chart year cutoff. As it is, there will be a few small boosts from the hours just before midnight Sunday night, but the rest of the action is DEFERRED to the FIRST Hot 100 of 2015, which I expect to be reformulated substantially. Right now, streaming and sales are reversed from Billboard's set goal.

 I mean, it topped the sales chart for a bunch of weeks too, so it definitely deserved #1 over that omn.
With Gangnam #12 on Streaming in its 81st week, I wonder where it'll end up on the Year-End chart for that.

 It's true. Even way back in early 2012 when the first streaming (On-Demand) charts were introduced, Rack City, N*ggas In Paris and Take Care were all in the top 5, and the songs got boosts on the Hot 100. Rack City and NIP were past their peaks by that point too I think, they could've got higher peaks if they added streaming a few months earlier.

				The first-ever No. 1 atop On-Demand Songs belongs to New York act Fun. and its hit "We Are Young," featuring Janelle Monae, with a total of 1.1 million streams, according to Nielsen BDS. The track also tops the re-formatted Billboard Hot 100 for a second consecutive week. The rest of the On-Demand Songs top five are as follows: "Somebody That I Used To Know" by Gotye featuring Kimbra, "Rack City" by Tyga, "N---as In Paris" by Jay-Z & Kanye West and "Take Care" by Drake featuring Rihanna. Each of those songs posts a better ranking on this week's Hot 100 than it would have had the chart not undergone this week's addition of greater streaming data. For instance, Gotye's track ranks at No. 5 on the Hot 100, instead of No. 8, while the Drake/Rihanna collaboration re-enters the top 10 at a new peak of No. 7; it would have remained outside the top 10 under the old formula. the No. 15 rank for Tyga (instead of No. 18) , the No. 40 rank for Big Sean (instead of No. 52)  and the No. 66 rank for Avicii (instead of No. 80). Moreover, artists such as M83 at No. 74 (with "Midnight City"), and Skrillex at No. 83 (with "Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites"), debut and re-enter, respectively, on the Hot 100 primarily due to the influx of data from the newly incorporated streaming services. Also, a prior established hit, "You Da One" by Rihanna (No. 31 on On-Demand Songs), moves 97-76 on this week's Hot 100, whereas it would have fallen off the chart if the list's methodology had not been changed .
			
		 
	 
	
 Indie/alternative/guitar songs also benefitted from streaming a lot, except those songs don't do so well on Youtube, whilst hip hop songs do well on both types of streaming. However, indie/alternative/guitar songs do really well on sales usually, even with little airplay, so it balances out, since urban songs usually do absolutely terrible in sales (outside of first-week fanbase downloads) unless they crossover to pop radio.
