Streaming killed the charts. It's always the same songs at the top these days, for weeks. Boring.

I was just thinking that half the songs on there are same since December

I actually think "Up" is a huge bop. I listen to it on my way to work while speeding

Video has a lot of views on youtube like 44 million already. I think those might count as streams

Not to sound like “that” but for a song that is debuting at #2, you expect much more views like over 60 or 70+ million

[Look But Don't Touch]

It's better than this olivia something

The YouTube views have been significantly lower for a lot of the recent songs. I'm pretty sure there has been a rule change.

The song is a banger but its nothing new from Cardi. IDK why u are hating on this song and its success so bad though 

Aren’t you the only fan on here that bought Smile 

You should prolly worry bout that

Still earns her the hot shot debut, which is probably a record for female rap, And unlike Nicki. I've noticed Cardi never free falls, she lingers on the charts. 

 

You don't hear cardi going 40 to 50 spots down like Nicki got accustomed to.

After a week of tracking, Cardi B's latest single debuts at No. 2 in the tightest No.1 race so far in 2021. However, it still poses a very impressive record - "Up" is the highest debuting solo track by a female rapper on the Hot 100 this century, since Lauryn Hill's "Doo Wop (That Thing)".

"Up" tops the Streaming Songs Chart (31.2 million streams) and Digital Song Sales Chart (34k sold + 3k physical copies). However, it's radio airplays and @Style.'s prayer that count the most.

Olivia Rodrigo's "drivers license" is staying strong at No.1 for the 5th week.

The Top 10 songs this week are:

1. drivers license, Olivia Rodrigo

2. Up, Cardi B

3. Blinding Lights, The Weeknd

4. Save Your Tears, The Weeknd

5. Mood, 24kGoldn feat. iann dior

6. 34+35, Ariana Grande

7. Go Crazy, Chris Brown & Young Thug

8. Levitating, Dua Lipa feat. DaBaby

9. positions, Ariana Grande

10. What You Know Bout Love, Pop Smoke

Next week's No.1 will again be a battle between Olivia, Cardi B, Taylor Swift and Ariana Grande (+ Doja Cat and Megan Thee Stallion).

I respect her for being grateful about a #2 when some people like Bieber would say #2 debut is for losers.

I think people need to accept the fact Cardi is here to stay, she has her fan base, and invasion of privacy is the biggest female rap album in the streaming era.  

 

Hell, even nicki's cried about debuting at #2.

Did Nicki though?

I don’t remember she did. 
I think the fact That Cardi doesn’t release a lot of songs and features gives people anticipation. And her visuals are really solid, even since Bodak Yellow.

Youtube isn't as popular as it was a few years ago since spotify is more mainstream now
