I was at trivia last night at the one of the questions was to list as many Drake songs that were in the Top 10 his album release week. Most teams couldn't list more than two. We currently have a Top 10 of songs most people haven't even heard.

I think just the fact that most songs have such weird chart runs anymore. Rarely does a song debut low and steadily climb. It seems like a lot of the time, we get a super front loaded week and the song just descends down the chart. Either that, or a song debuts high, then dips for a few weeks and climbs back up. That, together with all these album bombs clogging up the chart, makes so many songs have this odd chart run.

Drake existing in general blocking literally everything. Shake It Off & Only Girl (In The World) being released late in the year so there year end peaks look less impressive Problem being blocked I Knew You Were Trouble could have been #1 if her team weren't stupid Probably God's Plan, Shape Of You, Uptown Funk, Happy being #1 year end songs. Shake It Off getting blocked for 8 weeks by AATB making it probably having a lower charting on the decade end chart. Today Was A Fairytale not debuting at #1 Shape Of You blocking IDWLF Harlem Shake reaching #1 Ready For It got caught between two chart years Out Of The Woods bombing Closer being year end top 10 for 2 years in a row Closer spending 12 weeks at #1 Drake made New Rules and Havana go recurrent

Lucid Dreams not reaching #1 when it looked like it was pretty much done in the top 10. New Rules and Havana barely missing one year. SYWLG not being in the year end top 10, and getting blocked by songs that didn't even block it from the Hot 100's top 10. Counting Stars being blocked by Timber, yet still being huge. Sail barely missing 80 weeks. Need You Now being blocked by two songs. Hotline Bling being blocked because of the whole video release error. Mine barely missing the top 10, thanks to Freaky Friday. There are about twice as many #11 peaks this year than #10 peaks, for some reason. Twenty One Pilots have two #2 peaking songs.
Gangnam Style being blocked for 2 months because its Youtube views were not counted.

I Don't Wanna Live Forever (1 wk) 8. Look What You Made Me Do (6 wks) But I love that she has already peaked on all positions from #s 1 to 13. Thanks to the #12 peak of "Delicate" (though it deserved a higher peak).

Wayne drake and Nicki having so many chart entries. The success of the party rock anthem, BeyoncΓ©βs 4 album not having any top ten singles, bad romance peaking at number two, anaconda not reaching number one, the amount of top tens drake has gotten the last couple of years, Gangnam style being blocked by maroon 5

Regarding album bombs, they're more a function of technology and Billboard's constantly changing Hot 100 methodology. Billboard used to be too slow to react to changes in consumer habits and technology used to consume music; now if anything they've reacted too quickly, counting YouTube clips that often don't have the whole song or quick reaction to suddenly released songs that people don't even have to pay for and most don't even know about.
Album bombs would have existed in earlier years if they could track how many times a track was listened to; you brought the album home or borrowed it from a friend, family member, or whoever and played it, and some songs more than others. But there was no way to precisely track that. What you see now when Drake, Eminem, Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift, or whoever puts out a new album on a platform is the same thing in a way that can be tracked now. What's questionable is just how many songs should be counted; previously the designated singles and maybe a couple of other tracks were played a lot and charted. Nowadays the same artist clogs up the chart with 10 or 20 songs at once, most quickly fall off, but the press takes notice of the many debuts and treats it as the greatest, most popular achievement in the history of music.
