And Drake is someone who dominates the streaming charts, but not the pure sales, yet he always dominates the main charts and that proves my point that streaming >>>> pure sales in 2018.

Doesn't it take ten streams to equal one album, or something like that, when we're talking about numbers and chart positions.
George Ezra is 10k ahead at the moment. 10 thousand ahead is unheard of, it will likely debut at number 2. But it's very rare to get a number one in the first week. The first ever debut at number one was in 1995 by Michael Jackson. Since then, 23 years later, there's only been 30 debuts at number one.
Well didnt rock my world reach top 5 on billboard charts?
That's the R&B chart, not the Hot 100 which is the main chart in Billboard that the media generally refers to. I remember Butterflies getting a lot of airplay on the local R&B station, but have never heard it on the pop station. I've also heard Heaven Can Wait on the R&B station during the Quiet Storm show.Billboards website is wrong then.. interesting
The site actually says butterflies and love never felt so good with JT reached number one

The US really did MJ dirty from the 90s onward. No wonder Michael stopped doing concerts in his homeland. They didn't deserve him.
Get a life?? Yall come off so ****ing disrespectful on here man. Smh stupid ass assholes!Smooth72;4224878 said:Get a life. It’s Michael Jackson

MJ fans openly protested Sony for years. TDCAU did incredible based on no radio play. Sony campaign to destroy MJ started way before invincible.
Yeah that's just not a thing lol.
Please do not try to re-write history. MJ fans were very vocal at their mis-treatment of MJ. Why did that turn to silence? This isn't the point of the thread but you can't simply re-write history. Sony's disgusting US promotional efforts were long before Invincible.
A label not promoting something does not equal "trying to destroy" MJ. A ridiculous amount of advertising went into the HIStory album. It was a choice to focus on other territories as MJ was more popular outside of the US.
They Don't Care About Us hit high in the charts off sales alone as Sony refused to release it to radio. They consistently delayed the release, I don't know if they ever did. HIStory was widely ignored by Sony US even though success was obviously going to be there. I'm positive Earth Song wasn't even released as a single. No wonder MJ didn't bother with the US after the Bad Tour.

I'm no Sony fan but the notion that they tried to destroy MJ is so ridiculous. Why would they try to destroy their biggest asset? Their biggest tool for financial profit.MJ fans openly protested Sony for years. TDCAU did incredible based on no radio play. Sony campaign to destroy MJ started way before invincible.

It's worth noting MJ's singles performed far better across the 90s in the UK - indeed even better than the previous decade's crop. And during these years the UK and the US were world's apart in terms of charts.
