Drake: only top 6 on Spotify any more and only 1 song above 3m. This is not doing much better than J. Cole at this stage which is VERY surprising.

No but I would think he's not doing very differently on other platforms |

Spotify Subscribers Demand Refunds Over Too Much Drake Promotion
NewsDigital and Mobile
By Colin Stutz | July 02, 2018 9:54 PM EDTThe hip-hop superstar took over the streaming service's playlists this weekend, leaving some customers complaining of advertisements on their ad-free accounts. With the release of Drake's latest album, Scorpion, on Friday, Spotify spent the weekend spreading the news with a first-of-its-kind promotional takeover that might have helped hype up fans but also turned off some subscribers enough to ask for a refund. Heralding what Spotify referred to as "Scorpion SZN," Drake was placed so prominently on the streaming service's editorial playlists that his image was even used on those that did not feature his music -- "Best of British," "Massive Dance Hits" and "Happy Pop Hits" among them. This is the first time a single artist has taken over multiple Spotify playlists on the same day, a rep told Billboard last week. There's a Drake for practically every mood. #ScorpionSZN is here. Listen now on Spotify --https://t.co/Gfa32R9WN1 pic.twitter.com/p1qbGsac88 — Spotify (@spotify) June 29, 2018 The campaign was intended to be a quirky celebration of Spotify's top streaming artist, helping him to break the one-week U.S. streaming record in only three days and putting him on pace to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart. But some subscribers online have been decrying the decision as an imposition of advertisements on what are supposed to be ad-free accounts, with a select number taking their complaints directly to the company with requests for refunds. Reddit user Schwagschwag shared his frustration on the website's music forum on Sunday and claimed he received a refund for this month's payment after contacting customer service. While some other users described similar success receiving refunds or credit for a free month with their own appeals to Spotify customer service, others reported their requests were denied, prompting some decisions to cancel their subscriptions altogether. Spotify declined to comment, but sources tell Billboard the complaints have been relatively minimal and no refund policy has been put in place. For some, the campaign is reminiscent of Apple's misguided "giveaway" of U2's Songs of Innocence album in 2014, when the band's album was uploaded to all iTunes users' libraries without consent. But there is more to it too. As Spotify subscribers have become accustomed to the app personalizing its service to their interests, when the company executed total editorial influence like this, a portion of users seemingly felt betrayed. Time will tell whether Spotify chooses to repeat a campaign of this nature down the line, but in the meantime it has raised a debate over the service's "Browse" landing page and the level of marketing -- or artist support -- that is appropriate there. |

It was fun to watch the digital format be born and grow. It's even more fun to watch streaming, as labels and platforms continue to do the most to see what works and what doesn't - testing (or shaping, perhaps) the boundaries - using their largest artists as guinea pigs.

As I see all the streams Drake's earning right now (and their decline on Spotify), I have a bet Taylor will have a chance to get a decent peak for "Delicate" climbing again the top 20 (and maybe reach highs in the top 10 when all Drake would be gone)

Not really. According to Youtube Music Insights for Friday, SAD!'s US streams were around 33% after the release of the official video which means that Thursday US streams for the official video would be around 7,5 million Thursday Global Views (official video): 22,6 million Thursday US Views (official video): 7,5 million (33%) simmnfierzig was predicting the same points for both I Like It and SAD! if the official video had over 9 million US streams (40% of the WW views) so "I Like It" would have still been #1. |

Simm's formula counts YouTube and Pandora equally (/165,000) and we know that's not how Billboard counts. 1 YT stream (SAD is #1 on YT) = 2 Pandora streams (ILI is #1 on Pandora) ...so X's streams counts way more than Cardi's. Even with 7.5M streams, SAD! would've been #1 (I think it was more than 7.5M on Thursday, tho). And... they counted 3.1M views for I Like It on Thursday. How can ILI go from 2.0M on Tuesday to 3.1M on Thursday and fall back to 2.1M on Friday? It's not normal. And just to finish: that's a recurrent problem with YouTube. Last year, they didn't count TWIL's first day (video released on Wednesday, March 1) and it was #3 instead of #2 that week. That's What I Like finished its chart run one week away from tying the record for most weeks at #2. |

I mean, BTS at #10 with 27M streams is even more suspicious. Well.. back to the Drakemania. I love Cardi, don't get me wrong. |

After today's Spotify update, I think Nice For What is really close to #1. What a crazy chart run: 1-1-1-1-2-2-1-1-2-1-3-6-(1, 2 or 3)

If "Nice for What" returns to #1, it will be the first ever song to have four separate #1 runs.
