why was 1989 (Taylor's Version) changed to not include the only deluxe song? (-73m) you say in the faq that the version with the highest total streams is shown, so why was this changed.
Hi Test!
In theory it is, in practice not so much. None of the tracks have appeared on previous albums.
Sure, but to label it as a '2024' album is pretty insulting to actual albums released in 2024. The labeling is technically correct, but it is far from accurate.
Of 96 Summers' 9.3bn streams: 44% is from songs released 2016 or earlier, 80% is from songs released 2018 or earlier, and 88% is from songs released 2019 or earlier.
Calvin takes playlist album fraudulance to new extremes and chartmasters ks unfortunately actively perpetuating it.
It's irrelevant how old the songs are, if they're not on a prior release it's very much valid. None our rankings should not be read as the top releases within a year anyway, if you're interested in that go to IFPI or something.
And what do you mean about insulting to actual albums? A lot of albums have been and still are compiled this way, especially genres that are often more single oriented such as EDM. And there is nothing wrong with that.
There is no fraud here, It's not like Calvin is getting much more units from this, the only thing that changed is that these aren't in the orphan category any more.
Should use this version of good kid maad city: https://open.spotify.com/album/3DGQ1iZ9XKUQxAUWjfC34w
It has more streams.
Can you change Mariah's Music Box link to this one ( https://open.spotify.com/album/1GzBLltCCKsiIJM3T3AWj3)? Thank you 🙂
