Jose P 23,341 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Oh this is great and I wonder why it didn’t exist yet. And Gaga will definitely benefit from this which is good news, because: 1. While still successful in the US ofc, she’s found more success outside of it lately. 2. Radio doesn’t count and we know her relationship with radio. But she has successfully transitioned into a streaming artist and is doing great with that. Why couldn’t this come before Rain On Me was released? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Songs are usually considered a success only if they are big hits in the US. These new metrics will be more telling and transparent since it won't count radio spins aka payola. 9 minutes ago, TheArcher said: Major local streaming platforms won't be included in the charts India (Gaana) China (QQ Music) South Korea (MelOn, Genied) and others If this is true, I don't see how this new chart actually accomplishes rewarding global success Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JusKeepBreathin 19,311 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I think that because Spotify YouTube and Apple Music are global companies that can provide real-time daily number, it's just easier to amass all that information in a timely manner. It was bound to happen. They don't have to wait for shipments and retailers paying for shipment and record companies tallying up those numbers or neilson tallying up those numbers anymore.

gagaxsebert 5,804 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 And where was this when Shallow had the chance to rule for 374628383 weeks? Anyways at least it doesn’t make the US the only way to know if a song is successful, realistically Used to be HighRoad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean payola is still in the mix because of playlist placements but it's more accurate as far as music consumption.

pop ate my heart 2,720 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 finally we'll see what REAL success is it's only fair. the ammount of non-US artists that suffered from this US-centric system is unreal. Only one of them being Kylie Minogue her entire career. I'm not a fan at all, but Ava Max would be very dominant too if they counted European charts earlier. and don't even get me started with Kpop girl groups.. am i-e-i-e-i-e-i-e-i-e-i-p-plastic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I explained above, a lot of artists suffer from the US-centric chart system, and songs aren't usually considered smashes if it’s not a smash in the US, not to mention this chart won't count rdio spins, and it's a well known fact that US radio is payola-ridden. This chart is both more transparent and it's global. A global chart was long overdue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
