No more iconic hits that will be remembered decades from now, no more imperial phases, no nothing. this case isn't streaming though, dynamite has amassed huge sales because of the iTunes discounts of multiple versions of the song (normal, instrumental, remix, trap remix, country version, Korean version, strip club mix, blessed madonna remix) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pro-streaming people always say “but streaming shows what people really listen to, blah blah blah”, but imo it's not what a chart is supposed to do.
