On iTunes? Gotta be extremely popular to hold 4 spots in the top 10 with 1 and 2 being 2 of them.

Hence why this song is #1 on iTunes, but #45 in overall sales on the billboard charts.

This isn't a "gotcha moment".


You're basically just comparing a "singles charts" format to an "album charts" format.


Being more successful in one vs. another does not diminish the enthusiasm that got someone there.

I understand that the way the music industry works is confusing, but just assume that being #1 on any music site is the same as a Chevy dealership saying this is the #1 best selling car "in the line"
Not confusing at all. Folks are paying for these songs and the popularity is nationwide and beyond. Holding 4 spots in the top 10 shows it’s extreme popularity.

Interesting attempt at deflection, and it’s obvious that Sleepy Joe supporters certainly don’t approve of the songs, but the fact is it’s a big deal.

Finally, after 40 years, rap music has truly made it into the mainstream across generations.

Let's go Brandon!

Quite the attempt at deflection in a Sleepy Joe post about songs about him being so popular, because Trump.

Besides, other than the free stuff, skyrocketing inflation, border crisis, Afghan debacle, etc…, it’s better that because Trump lost. Folks are feeling the affects of what they wished for and Sleepy Joes plummeting approval ratings show that many people aren’t happy with who they voted for. It’ll make 2022 and 2024 that much easier for Republicans.
