No amount of Spotify promotion would change that. There's plenty of artists that have strong sales but have awful streaming. Maybe it's a demographic/age thing.

Spotify payola helps a ton. Cool Girl has 150 million streams just for being included on playlists for months, despite being a major flop that nobody cares about (see charts + the album flopping everywhere). It only has 27 million views on Youtube, so it's clear that the Spotify payola is responsible for those Spotify streams
If Me Too was on Today's Top Hits for months like those songs, it would've had 200 million+ streams easily.

I prefer Ariallah, but Meghan would've completely destroyed her if she got the same amount of radio and Spotify payola

Cumulative streams don't mean ANYTHING if the song can't chart in the Top 20 of the Spotify Top 50.

The only reason Meghan sold more than Ariana is because she's Katy'd and panders to lame, social outcast children.

AKA the people who buy tracks on iTunes but don't stream at all (Justin Timberlake's demographic, really).

I mean, The Fame Monster's sales from this decade alone have sold more than 4, Self-titled, and Lemonade combined.

You're right, it's both. The white 30 somethings also find it appropriate for their children and nieces, etc. Which one of these people is going to buy an album with an explicit sticker and a BDSM alluding cover? Lmfao

Actually, I bet Dangerous Woman would have a lot more album sales with a different album cover.
