What in the hell has "Work" impacted?

[ONOPKA]

Formation had no impact, so Work.

[Erreur2 La Nature]

Formation is absolutely unknown outside of the US so Work automatically wins

[avi]

US Formation
Global Work

[VOSS]

Barely anyone has even heard formation whereas Work was a global smash that set trends for music in 2016

By the way, these videos aren't an indicator of impact just popularity.

[Bad Blood]

[NX127]

Work impacted people to buy it near 5 million times and stream it and it's video more than a billion times, and that's the most important, genuine and impressive kind of impact that a song could have.

This statement is very contradictory and further questions the definition of impact on this forum, for President Obama to cover the song, y'all would have said that that was great impact right there but because it's for a song that isn't your fave's it's simply "popular"?

[JesusORGod]

LMFAO @ people using impact...stop!!!

Work was a hit and it won.

[Pure Heroin]

Too easy. Work.

[Popboi.]

Work obviously lmfao.

Impact:
- a marked effect or influence
- a powerful effect that something, especially something new, has on a situation or person

The lyrics using Jamaican patois confused music critics & the GP, Work being the first dancehall #1 hit in 10 years paved the way for more dancehall influenced hits this year
