I can't see Zayn's "Nobody is Listening" on the list of 2021 albums. It has over 400m streams.

How does chartmasters determine what year an album belongs to? For example, Spotify calls hopeless fountain kingdom (Live From Webster Hall) by Halsey a 2022 album, presumably because more than half of the 35 tracks appear to have been recorded live in 2022, while chartmasters lists the album as a 2017 album.

Hello AI, sorry for taking so long to answer! Here's the link: https://open.spotify.com/album/7z0efuBXAnPfu60aOL3QFV

Thanks!

It should update tonight.

Hi airbag!

The year is always when the first version of an album came out commercially.

This version is basically a reissue of HFK adding a remix of "Alone". The live tracks are mainly songs from the original album too, anyhow these only add for a few millions in total so it's not like it changes much.

I'm not sure why people downvote rather than just giving a sensible answer. The answer is that Zayn will need 500 million streams. There might be some exceptions, e.g. foreign language albums.

You're welcome!

Hi! Why can’t I find some Brazilian albums like “Pandora” (over 150m streams) or “Batidão Tropical” (over 100m streams)? Also, There’s 2 versions of “DOCE 22” on Spottily, why they aren’t combined here?

The song does not show up as part of the album on the artist-specific streaming tool (the one that requires credits), will that be fixed soon?

I can't find the rest of Anitta's discography besides Kisses and Versions Of Me

Because none know these albums

Please add zayn's nobody is listening in 2021 album

Hi. I was wondering why TWICE's 'Taste Of Love' ep, released in 2021, doesn't appear when you search for TWICE's 2021 albums and their most streamed albums? Is it possible to add it?

4 is the minimum number of tracks to count as an 'album' on this chart, right?

That's right!

4 different tracks, EPs with 5 remixes of the same song etc doesn't count.

nobodys listening to that, maybe thats why he didnt add it? 🙂

José González's 2003 Veneer has passed the mark of 500 mill. 🙂

Please, add Nathy Peluso "Calambre", this is close to 220 million streams, is one of the most streamed latin albums in 2020, one of the most streamed by an Argentinian singer, it also have a Latin Grammy Award and a Grammy Nomination.

Added!

Hi Matthewmc62!

The reissue of it, "Reclassified" is already here.

What it doesn't have is enough streams, that's what counts here.

Excuse me, but in the 2020 albums renting you hava albums with les streams that Calambre, if a 10 million streams enter to the Top, an album with 215-220 millions should enter easily, this would be in 221th place of 2020 albums, and beetwen the 2378 a 2383 spot in the most streamed of all time.

The required amount for English/Spanish albums is 500M. The lowest Spanish album in 2020 has 502M streams - Aire (Versión Día).
The albums that you are seeing with 10-100M are all in other languages. The requirements for them are much lower. And before you ask why is that.

Of the 153 albums over 500M in 2020:
108 are in English
28 are in Spanish
5 are in Portuguese
5 are in Korean
4 are in French
1 each in Italian/German/Japanese

So if the threshold isn't lower for other languages you would have zero representation of those languages.

Great answer Strongerq!

I don't think I have anything else to add here.

Hi everyone!

2 new languages are added, Malaysian and Swahili. I don't think the 2 lists are 100% complete yet so if you have some knowledge on these markets feel free to post some additions/corrections here.
