Talent 9,333 Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 "Halsey’s new album is the first by a woman to be No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in 2017. The last leading lady to top the chart was Lady Gaga, whose Joanne album debuted on the list dated Nov. 12, 2016 — more than seven months ago. In the last 12 months, Halsey is only the fourth solo woman to top the Billboard 200, following Lady Gaga, Solange (A Seat at the Table) and Barbra Streisand (Encore: Movie Partners Sing Broadway). Comparatively, in the last 12 months, 16 men have earned No. 1s (including a pair each for Drake and Future), 10 groups (and only one with a female member: Pentatonix), two soundtracks (Fifty Shades Darker and Suicide Squad) and one compilation (The Hamilton Mixtape)." http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/chart-beat/7825776/halsey-hopeless-fountain-kingdom-no-1-album-billboard-200-chart?utm_source=twitter _______ I'm genuinely curious about this. Why are women struggling so much (don't say "bad music" when Justin's collabs, The Chainsmokers and others are out there)? I thought Malibu by Miley was going to be a SMASH but look at it now. Is this streaming's fault? Are "the bros" that powerful? 🔵 - Banned because I quoted a stupid meme. Literally. So, yeah. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think streaming is still not that important for album sales but this is still tragic There haven't been many huge female releases lately tho?
