2016 TOP-STREAMED ALBUMS: IN THE GROOVE
Rhythmic genres dominate the year's Top 50 streamed albums, with Drake on top (no surprise there) and leading #2 Rihanna by a more than 2-1 SPS ratio. J. Cole, who just landed the year's third-biggest debut, also has the year's #3 streaming set for his prior album. Bryson Tiller lands at #6, ahead of such stars as Twenty One Pilots, The Weeknd, The Chainsmokers and Chance the Rapper. Marketshare finds UMG with 48%, Sony at 30% and WMG at 17%. In other album news, has anyone seen that gatefold LP we use to clean weed?
