Where the first three releases off the album peaked almost immediately upon release, "Delicate" has gradually swelled to arguably her most popular single off the set to date. We love an organic sleeper hit!

LWYMMD was by the far the most popular from the album.Everyone heard it and knew about it, it just didn’t stick because no one wanted to hear it after first listen because it was terrible. The music video broke the record for most views in the first 24 hours and was very controversial. Delicate isn’t near big.

The 3 weeks at #1 alone make it bigger than any other song of Reputation. Pretty sure Ready For It? was also bigger than Delicate. But in terms of radio support, it's no question that Delicate was her biggest hit since Wildest Dreams

We are in the streaming era and Delicate is not in the top 200 on Spotify/Apple Music. LWYMMD broke records on streaming services and spent three weeks at #1 on the Hot 100 with the first one being the biggest week in points since Hello.

Delicate (which I haven’t heard, for the record) is such an interesting example of how different the purpose/function of radio is, and how polarized radio and steaming are.
Radio, ultimately, is driven by *inaction* — they play songs that they hope don’t make you want to change the channel. A song doesn’t have to be beloved to do well, it simply has to be not disliked. While radio is the least “direct” metric, it’s also the only one that takes into account dislike by measuring “burnout” and using score rankings with call outs. So you could say that a song that does well in airplay is probably reasonably well-liked by a big chunk of the population, even if it’s not necessarily passionately loved by many.
Streaming is the exact opposite — it doesn’t take into account dislike at all. So you could have 2 million people streaming a song 50 times a week and get a streaming #1, but if the other 300+ million people in the country hate the song (or more likely, have never heard it) they don’t have any impact. (And to be honest, they shouldn’t, since this is the commercial side.)
This is why I’m glad the Hot 100 balances both.
Radio = palatability/reach.
Streaming = passion/intensity.

Radio is actually such an interesting metric - especially when songs do well on it but not on other formats, and vice-versa For example, there's so many random examples that intrigue me - example Work was the bigger Rihanna/Drake duet, but on airplay, it was the complete opposite situation with What's My Name being #1 on airplay for 7 weeks, and Work only getting 1 week at #2. Anti actually didn't have mega radio hits (the highest year end airplay song was "Love on the Brain" at #16), but she was a radio monster with Loud (Only Girl In the World, What's My Name), Talk That Talk (We Found Love, Where Have You Been) and Unapologetic (Diamonds, Stay). Also the lowest peaking Hot 100 #1 songs on the year end airplay chart - Avril Lavigne's Girlfriend (#74), Fergie's London Bridge (#75) - amazing how such huge digital hits can be airplay bombs. Born This Way peaking at #1 on airplay in 6 weeks and crashing on radio right after (only hitting #40 on the year end airplay chart which was lower than any single she released from The Fame - including Lovegame & Alejandro)

Yeah, I don't know why Lucid Dreams is the one single of JuiceWorld that is smashing, when All Girls Are the Same is way superior, even beautiful I may say.

Updates on the #1 race:
Nonstop v Nice for What 19k v 19k 58.5m v 33.0m 0m v 128.5m (Kworb numbers projected, I believe it’d be about 95-100m on Billboard?)
So the big question here is “does it take 4 or more radio listens to equal an on-demand stream?”. Considering the majority of these will be benefitting from the new stream weights, I think this might be a confirmation of Nonstop’s high probability to lead after all!

Drake's new set Scorpion has become the first album to hit 1 billion streams globally across all streaming platforms in a single week, industry sources have confirmed to Billboard. In all, Scorpion's tracks accumulated more than 1 billion streams globally in the most recent tracking week (June 29-July 5), the set's first week available, making it the first album to reach the milestone. Previously, Post Malone's beerbongs & bentleys held the global record with just under 700 million streams (April 27-May 3), according to industry insiders. Additionally, Scorpion scored over 750 million streams U.S.-only in its first seven days, according to sources This just demonstrates how US and Canada-based his album success is. And UK to some extent but it didn't come close to any records there

Radio LOVED that song, and while it eventually got certified Platinum, I can't say it did that well. Its radio play is more indicative of a mutli-platinum single.

So, I want to point out that Post Malone has now been in the Top 10 for 41 consecutive weeks now. However, considering the incoming Drake onslaught that's gonna happen next week, Post's streak will likely be broken.

Nonstop hitting #1 this week is the only way Drake will be able to tie MJ/Katy Perry’s record for most #1s on 1 album.

Drake's label is under Republic. Yeah, if he gets to 4 #1's they're going to definitely try to get a 5th lol.
If he gets a 4th #1 I think they should straight up drop a video to DMTM the week after. If they try to wait until after IMF's run completely dies who's to say DMTM won't be much past its peak too.
