This should have been explained earlier when the "so-called" disputing fans of Dua and Olivia (according to the Billboard article) were raising the "chart manipulation" issue, at least you can save the reputation of BTS, ARMYs, and Billboard itself (since you make the rules) rather than coming to BTS to ask about it (which I think was disrespectful). This short explanation could definitely save you from backlash.
Yes...They said that to BTS just because they are korean band and call them "chart manipulators".....if it comes to a western artist they won't even say a single word that disrespect them...When taylor swift did bundles they didn't say anything, when olivia rodrigo gave her albums free just for getting sales they didn't say anything...But BTS Army bought albums in honest way it is called "chart manipulation"...😒but they are just pressed about the fact that BTS have a huge and loyal fan base...
Okay, so Army's do exactly that which is described in the video. And yet, we manipulate the charts..... Nope, I think it's because BTS has THE biggest fan base out there, and people love their music. No manipulation required. Honestly, this accusation is probably going to make Army's work HARDER to keep our boys on top.
Thanks for pointing that out ! Bts's success is *organic* yet Billboard dared to accuse them, their agency and even the fans of manipulating the charts through biased and baseless questions on their latest interview with them !! Billboard is just confused with their own chart's system and blaming the artists for their own success makes me think that they don't want to admit that they lack of organization and proper rules for their charts.
@@dulshipeiris3257 Yeah right, the one who actually go out of their way to buy the albums and stream the music are the one to blame for "cheating" meanwhile there's other artists on the top 10 who are known for deliberately buying radioplays and bundles (which is a real *falsification* as these views and buys are not from actual poeple/fans !) yet no one accuse them for that ! Y'all need to rethink the actual term of "cheating" here ! Plus if you had a brain and actually comprehend the video, you'll get that Billboard actually accept our methods as they are not forbidden and counted on the charting system. So now say what you want about the fans but BTS's place is gained fairly here. And the fans are not manipulated, they choose to spend some time doing this to give some strength back to BTS since they appreciate them for caring so much about their fans, delivering consistent content to us and doing incredible and versatile songs. Now go cry on the corner watching us support the group we love to success 😏
@@dulshipeiris3257 but didn't billboard itself made those rules and we're not manipulating the charts it's just that BTS has the best fan base, music and style
What about the fact that 6ix9ine bought his #1 (after the scandal with Ariana and Justin) and he even proved that the top is fake and anyone can bought it?
Billboard hot 100 is calculated by 1. US streaming. How ARMYs manipulate this?? TH-cam already deleted more than 30M views in just front of me I don't even know they total views they removed from butter( and I don't think bot views can be this many) 2. Radio plays. How ARMYs manipulated this? You don't even give us 20% of the radio play compared to western and Latin artist. And life goes on top chart with 0 radio play. 3. Sales. How we manipulated this? Give proof please. Like RM said stop slamming BTS and ARMYs for everything. If you asked this manipulation questions just casually why don't you ask your Western artist about this directly why don't you mention this in their interviews?? I will never forgive Billboard for this.
Words of advice from a ARMY to a new ARMY. You guys need to know that BTS has a storyline running through their music videos. You guys have to read the BTS webtoon that explains the storyline so you guys can understand what is happening. There is also a video that explains the storyline to you guys. Most BTS music videos have explained videos to tell you guys what is happening in the music video itself. So good luck as you begin your journey into the BTS universe.
Hot 100 or whatever you can't deny that BTS has a loyal fan base ever seen for any artist. I am not even an army and I know other fans are also loyal but the relationship between BTS and their fans is just different...it is just so precious.
Exactly. We r just a huge loyal fanbase that support our fav. Yet everyone has to blame us for everything. It's just jealousy or xenophobia. ARMY and BTS never thought of being this huge... We started from grassroot level. But now that we r competing against the western artists, we r getting hate left and right... From kpopies as well as western stans... And moreover the big corporates. I guess we r indeed making a huge change in global music market. This would threaten many prejudice corporates and pave the way for non-english artists to become on top. World is evolving and BTS is a part of a evolutionary change.
Yeah, the relationship BTS an ARMY have is more than fans and artist. We’re like a family who are each others support. BTS and ARMY are each others biggest fans tbh.
@@_CompactDisc Loads of songs are preferred by a community more than most of the casual listeners, especially in western pop where most of the listeners are none others than teens. Young artists especially boysbands have a fanbase that boost their songs on the charts but bts is a different topic as they are poc artists so it's way harder for them to be consistent on foreign charts considering the fact that they don't have the support of local radios. With that being said, there's no real differences between them and any others famous artists that have radioplays and the support of their fans, the only difference is that bts isn't favoured by the American public instead, making it "not popular" in the eyes of the public and so odd on the charts when it's not as it's considered correct and valid according to the Billboard chart system and is used by most of the artists on the top 10 yet they are not called out for that.
Just fans support is not enough if you don't have talent. So don't think that armys are doing everything for them. Yes we're supporting them at our best but it's really nothing comparing to their passion and talents.
After the magazine came out, i would like to say one thing : *On behalf of all armys we are highly disappointed in you Billboard for disrespecting BTS with insulting question*
@@dulshipeiris3257 If that's what you interpret the video, then all of them are manipulators including that artist you are idolizing whoever they are??? Try to do some yoga, it will help you to think reasonably without prejudice.

Let's pretend we didn't see bts in billboard like everyweek ...kings can achieve anything 🥺💕some ppl cant digest the fact they are ruling all over the world ✋💜
Part of the reason ARMY are so smart with their buying tactics is because US radio won’t give them a chance, even their English songs haven’t gotten even half the airplay as the big western artists. And their streams get cut every comeback by way more than any other new song or album. ARMY are just making up the difference that’s being taken from BTS.
In conclusion this means we can continue to support our boys the way we have been because as shown in the video this is what having a loyal loving fan base does, so let’s keep supporting our boys periodt 💜 Also let’s keep streaming and buying the butter remix which is set to debute at 3 next week but we can get it to number 1 let’s get it armys 💜
So bts has achieved it exactly how it's shown in the video. So now don't try to twist your words and make your editor apologize to BTS! Because BTS's success is pure then any other artist in this industry!
It's strange that Billboard explains this after the horrible things that they said about BTS. I'm sooooo disgusted and... Idk... our guys bring a lot of happiness, fun and hope to us and it's just awful that there are people in music industry that only try to hurt them. Anyway, they have their ARMY to protect them and just let's ignore this :)
@@EverRoxas U r big3 stan and kpopie... Be pressed and spread toxic where u r irrelevant. Piss off dude... Stream ur favs instead of begging ARMYs for a chance. So annoying🥱
Woooow… you say its all about the radio play and streams and whatever. But you have the audacity to accuse BTS of chart manipulation. We as the BTS ARMY worked hard for them to achieve top 1 on the top 100, they didn’t bribe us just to play their song, we listen to them because of the message they send to the youth today.
@@dulshipeiris3257 You are everywhere trying to attacked us Army!!! Dude find your own place to rant! Or better just stay where you faves are so they can catch up with BtS achievement even just a little of what they've got!
Billboard, YOU’RE THE ONE MANIPULATING the sales by having 8 different copies of BTS on magazine covers. Don’t FALSELY accused others of manipulating when you’re the one doing it! Play fair at your own game!
ARMY play nice in the sandbox...just go stream and purchase BTS. It's not worth your time to be making comments or throwing shade to BB. Don't be expecting an apology for the article. You know this video comes off as an indirect response to ARMYs anger. Let's just put BTS back at #1 next week with the remix.
Billboard you just couldn't accept the fact that a Korean band is ruling billboard! And you did so much dirty to BTS! At least bts are here only because of their hard work unlike your western stars who are here because of their company's strategy!
So now they have come up to decide that streaming will weigh more on the chart calculations than sales after knowing that BTS ranks high with a huge chunk of scores coming from sales. Just how far the industry will go to drag BTS down really shows
That’s not what the video said, basically it’s saying that BTS fans did not do chart manipulation because it has always been this way hence y they showed said examples, the problem is that if they kno this then y ask BTS the question they did ask, any who let’s just keep streaming and buying for our boys 💜
So... to sum up: fans can influence the #1, and have done so before BTS. It's not new and is NOT manipulation. Thanks for clarifying what we already knew - so wtf was that article last week?? Suspiciously timed explainer video, but care to comment directly on that BB?
There are so many people work at billboard some are temporary may be so it's a fault of the article writer who asked the question to bts you can check the name of the writer on article and if everyone is wrong in billboard then bts never get hot 100 #1 also those interviewer in billboard who taken interview of bts also ask nice question as you saw in the you tube video like Chelsea Briggs and more
@@sk8032 Entirely possible.. but BTS were on the cover of the magazine, and they're the biggest band in the world right now. It would be pretty dumb if that article wasn't vetted at high levels. And again, this video is suspiciously timed given the backlash.

@@dulshipeiris3257 you really believe that fans of the other artists do not stream their songs and they just jump to number ones in some sort of magic? If you really believe in it, I am so sorry for you... streaming actually shouldn't count at all. it should be only 'paid copies'. How does it look when butter has 200 000 copies sold and Justin Bieber + The Kid Laroy sells 14 000 copies? Do you believe that if fans spend only that much for a song, they reached NO 1 without streaming? 14 000 fans - how they made it without streaming? MM? Plus when western labels pay for radio stations to play the songs they want to get Number 1, isn't it a manipulation? BTS label decided not to do it and play without cheating. So fans put Life goes on to No1 without radio plays, which shows how huge fan base it is. Now. If the group has huge fan base, it means it does something really unique, because in other way it would have small fan base. Because most fans of BTS are older than 30 years old, they can't be deceived into loving the fake product. And yes, the group is unique. It has more than 200 songs in every genre, most of them were created by members themselves, they cover important issues in their songs, not just talk about sex and drugs like Western musicians. By now they trained their voices so well that they can sing live even while doing hard choreo, they can do harmonies, octaves and so on in slower songs which are flawless. They are nice and genuine people. They really love their fans. They work 15-18 hours each day to give their fans content, and during 8 years they had vacation only for one month. No western artists work so damn hard. No western artists communicate with their fans so much and so genuinely. No western artists get that constant racistic condemnation. So it is absolutely normal that ARMY stand behind BTS. In all means. Putting them into 1st places of HIt 100 because they deserve it or fighting for them with liars from Billboard magazine.
Well this is something.. Seeing majority of the comments here by the ARMY shows that that interview with BTS was nonsense. To basically blame them for the loopholes of the chart is really cowardly.
@@dulshipeiris3257 streaming goals is not manipulation.. literally so many popular artist's music video have comments like 'lets take this to xxx views! ' That's streaming, not manipulation.
@@dulshipeiris3257 "Chart manipulation refers to unethical methods to boost a record's chart ranking online, such as the use of algorithm-driven bots to repeatedly stream songs on devices - artificially boosting the number of times a song has been played." When I said that ARMYs stream a song, I didn't mean they use bots. Using illegal ways to mass-stream is chart manipulation. "But in music, sajaegi has a more specific meaning - unethically and/or illegally boosting a chart ranking. For example, entertainment agencies bulk-buying their own CDs; or, probably more likely in the digital era, using bots or computer farms to repeatedly stream songs and hike up chart numbers."
Perhaps Billboard is worried that nobody will buy their $175 highly expected sales of "Billboard 2021 Limited Edition Collector’s Box Set featuring BTS" so they came out with this so-called explanation video.
RM said -"But if there is a conversation inside Billboard about what being No. 1 should represent, then it’s up to them to change the rules and make streaming weigh more on the ranking. Slamming us or our fans for getting to No. 1 with physical sales and downloads, I don’t know if that’s right ... It just feels like we’re easy targets because we’re a boy band, a K-pop act, and we have this high fan loyalty" 👑King behaviour 👑
wow billboard totally didnt see this coming. also should i mention armys? how majority of us actually know how this chart works because we have researched well enough? our fandom is well researched and aware of so many topics it's so cool.

BTS are so down to earth and so humble. BTS are incredible artists. They incredible music writers and music producers. They write their own music. BTS writes from the heart. BTS makes masterpieces. BTS music is so relatable. BTS songs always have a meaning behind it. BTS loves to keep you thinking. Almost every song has a story behind it. That what I love about BTS. BTS makes you feel that you are not alone in the ups and downs of life. BTS uplifting songs and lyrics and their love myself message is the reason why BTS has become so big. BTS message of self love has inspired youth all over the world. BTS has changed a lot of life's. BTS Tech's us to love ourselves for who we really are. And to better the human race with kindness and love.
they suddenly explained all this shit when no one buys their stupid magazine. they are literally sabotaging themselves by treating BTS like that, of coz army wouldnt give a shit or two bout buying something that is tooooo obviously bullying their beloved artist. it is not rocket science. i always knew BB is biased but never that i thot they make the fool of themselves like this.
And of course there are fans from every fandom who think that their artist deserved more....but that happens everywhere....mentioning olivia and dualipa fans is just the next level of unprofessionalism.

One thing Billboard. The respect... changed into disappointment. Stop justifying what you accused to BTS and ARMY, instead apologize. It's simple. You disrespected BTS, you disrespected the fandom, you disrespected bcoz you can't accept that we are massive and able to spend money, time and lot of efforts for our artists. And you can't accept that.
Keep explaining , and please explain about the questions asked in the interview with BTS. I wonder how will billboard explain the so called chart manipulation by the armys whereas all we did is streaming our favorite artist's songs.

Bts never did this type of things. They have the biggest fandom in the world that's why they are going bigger and bigger every year.
i have a feeling people are confused in the comments The Billboard Hot 100 Chart is only for the USA lets say an artist has the biggest song in all history but mainly outside the USA, it probably can still not be #1 since Hot 100 is a chart for the USA.
Why are they explaining this now?! And fans get their artists to number 1 ? I thought in a recent interview/article they had called it manipulation! Wow Things change pretty fast
Fairplay does not need to be explained, it is self explanatory. If you justified yourself by explaining something that was already known, is it just a bunch of excuses.
Billboard obviously did not acknowledge the fact that they did Bts wrong in their Magazine with their accusations. I hope they just stop using BTS in their articles and videos once and for all because they don't deserve BTS and ARMYS... #BillboardStopUsingBTS

Also let’s keep streaming and buying the butter remix which is set to debute at 3 next week but we can get it to number 1 let’s get it armys 💜
Armys should stop harassing other Armys of their own fandom just bc of Billboards. The fandom is made of dangerous psychopaths
I’m just focused on my boys and I think people are focused on the wrong thing
@@immealldayeveryday9425 lol true....FOCUS ON YOUR PRIORITIES😁 and Stay healthy and happy

Yah
Bts forever
So Billboard, how do you feel about allegations that Billboard's work amounts to chart manipulation? 💜🐈
@James Henry Smith Are you a BOT and Troll? Your comments on most BTS related videos are positive and yet negative about BTS.
Wow I’m sooo shocked that Billboard decided to post this after what ARMYs have to say-
So bts has achieved it exactly how it's shown in the video. So now don't try to twist your words and make your editor apologize to BTS! Because BTS's success is pure then any other artist in this industry!
BTS IS ON HOT CHART 💜💜💜💜💜💜😊😊😊😊
@James Henry Smith i don't understand
@@Mimi_Maryam ignore this fool. He's barking under every comment with his nonsense
@James Henry Smith you must be a hater
@James Henry Smith ok then i trust you
@James Henry Smith you can see my comment on this video and think if i am hater or not but i can clearly see that i am not hater instead i am an army
Wow bts 💜💜💜

It's strange that Billboard explains this after the horrible things that they said about BTS. I'm sooooo disgusted and... Idk... our guys bring a lot of happiness, fun and hope to us and it's just awful that there are people in music industry that only try to hurt them. Anyway, they have their ARMY to protect them and just let's ignore this :)
The best group in the world BTS
For ARMYS...
@@EverRoxas no

Woooow… you say its all about the radio play and streams and whatever. But you have the audacity to accuse BTS of chart manipulation. We as the BTS ARMY worked hard for them to achieve top 1 on the top 100, they didn’t bribe us just to play their song, we listen to them because of the message they send to the youth today.
It is manipulation clearly. You people literally have streaming goals
@@dulshipeiris3257 You are everywhere trying to attacked us Army!!! Dude find your own place to rant! Or better just stay where you faves are so they can catch up with BtS achievement even just a little of what they've got!

@Dulshi Peiris yes they are overrated by reaching this kind of succes after over 7 years into the music industry thats overrated already?
Billboard, YOU’RE THE ONE MANIPULATING the sales by having 8 different copies of BTS on magazine covers.
Don’t FALSELY accused others of manipulating when you’re the one doing it!
Play fair at your own game!
Yes exactly and yet no armies bout that as they should.
🤣🤣🤣
BTS top top the best
BTS ARMY ASSEMBLE!!
Yeshh
Fk this billboard
ARMY play nice in the sandbox...just go stream and purchase BTS. It's not worth your time to be making comments or throwing shade to BB. Don't be expecting an apology for the article. You know this video comes off as an indirect response to ARMYs anger. Let's just put BTS back at #1 next week with the remix.
💜 VAMOS BTS LOCO 💜
@@triplethread they knew their mistake this video is just show off let's show them the real army power
Billboard you just couldn't accept the fact that a Korean band is ruling billboard! And you did so much dirty to BTS! At least bts are here only because of their hard work unlike your western stars who are here because of their company's strategy!
So now they have come up to decide that streaming will weigh more on the chart calculations than sales after knowing that BTS ranks high with a huge chunk of scores coming from sales. Just how far the industry will go to drag BTS down really shows
That’s not what the video said, basically it’s saying that BTS fans did not do chart manipulation because it has always been this way hence y they showed said examples, the problem is that if they kno this then y ask BTS the question they did ask, any who let’s just keep streaming and buying for our boys 💜
@@immealldayeveryday9425 thanks for informing me
So... to sum up: fans can influence the #1, and have done so before BTS. It's not new and is NOT manipulation. Thanks for clarifying what we already knew - so wtf was that article last week??
Suspiciously timed explainer video, but care to comment directly on that BB?
There are so many people work at billboard some are temporary may be so it's a fault of the article writer who asked the question to bts you can check the name of the writer on article and if everyone is wrong in billboard then bts never get hot 100 #1 also those interviewer in billboard who taken interview of bts also ask nice question as you saw in the you tube video like Chelsea Briggs and more
@@sk8032 Entirely possible.. but BTS were on the cover of the magazine, and they're the biggest band in the world right now. It would be pretty dumb if that article wasn't vetted at high levels. And again, this video is suspiciously timed given the backlash.
@@sk8032 i think u don't know how a big publishing house like bit@h board work
just a writer come and ask some sh1tty questions to the artist on whom the magazine is gonna be the on & then just publish it
a magazine on someone like bt5 goes to their highest level of editors for approvement then it is published
More over they selectively choose a writer who was openly doing hate twts on Bt5 & army for this interview
What better questions can we even expect from a bt5 ant1
It is manipulation clearly. You people literally have streaming goals
@@dulshipeiris3257 you really believe that fans of the other artists do not stream their songs and they just jump to number ones in some sort of magic? If you really believe in it, I am so sorry for you...
streaming actually shouldn't count at all. it should be only 'paid copies'. How does it look when butter has 200 000 copies sold and Justin Bieber + The Kid Laroy sells 14 000 copies? Do you believe that if fans spend only that much for a song, they reached NO 1 without streaming? 14 000 fans - how they made it without streaming? MM? Plus when western labels pay for radio stations to play the songs they want to get Number 1, isn't it a manipulation? BTS label decided not to do it and play without cheating. So fans put Life goes on to No1 without radio plays, which shows how huge fan base it is. Now. If the group has huge fan base, it means it does something really unique, because in other way it would have small fan base. Because most fans of BTS are older than 30 years old, they can't be deceived into loving the fake product. And yes, the group is unique. It has more than 200 songs in every genre, most of them were created by members themselves, they cover important issues in their songs, not just talk about sex and drugs like Western musicians. By now they trained their voices so well that they can sing live even while doing hard choreo, they can do harmonies, octaves and so on in slower songs which are flawless. They are nice and genuine people. They really love their fans. They work 15-18 hours each day to give their fans content, and during 8 years they had vacation only for one month.
No western artists work so damn hard. No western artists communicate with their fans so much and so genuinely. No western artists get that constant racistic condemnation.
So it is absolutely normal that ARMY stand behind BTS. In all means. Putting them into 1st places of HIt 100 because they deserve it or fighting for them with liars from Billboard magazine.
Well this is something..
Seeing majority of the comments here by the ARMY shows that that interview with BTS was nonsense.
To basically blame them for the loopholes of the chart is really cowardly.
If they knew this, why were they disresting bts
@James Henry Smith was your mother there when they made the deal?
YALL DONT BUY THE MAGAZINE 😫
Don't buy that 💩💩💩
Why don’t you unfollow them too. Clearly your attacking bb. not the journalist. Lol.

Kinda weird that this came out right after the article, where RM addressed them to change their ranking ways if it was faulty. Hmm.
It is manipulation clearly. You people literally have streaming goals
@@dulshipeiris3257 streaming goals is not manipulation.. literally so many popular artist's music video have comments like 'lets take this to xxx views! '
That's streaming, not manipulation.
@@rjstandsforrapjin oh come on. That's manipulation. Go look up the word in a dictionary
@@dulshipeiris3257 "Chart manipulation refers to unethical methods to boost a record's chart ranking online, such as the use of algorithm-driven bots to repeatedly stream songs on devices - artificially boosting the number of times a song has been played."
When I said that ARMYs stream a song, I didn't mean they use bots. Using illegal ways to mass-stream is chart manipulation.
"But in music, sajaegi has a more specific meaning - unethically and/or illegally boosting a chart ranking. For example, entertainment agencies bulk-buying their own CDs; or, probably more likely in the digital era, using bots or computer farms to repeatedly stream songs and hike up chart numbers."
@@rjstandsforrapjin armys use bot. Or worse, they act like bots
Like seriously? I don`t wanna believe you now after the whole article thing? no apologies? and you want me to believe this video? great
They made this video to show that you guys are manipulators. Because you guys are slaves of BTS and can't see the truth because of that
@Dulshi Peiris aww boohoo someone sad cause they're faves aint as succesful as bts?
@@maria-clara7381 good one.
Perhaps Billboard is worried that nobody will buy their $175 highly expected sales of "Billboard 2021 Limited Edition Collector’s Box Set featuring BTS" so they came out with this so-called explanation video.
RM said -"But if there is a conversation inside Billboard about what being No. 1 should represent, then it’s up to them to change the rules and make streaming weigh more on the ranking. Slamming us or our fans for getting to No. 1 with physical sales and downloads, I don’t know if that’s right ... It just feels like we’re easy targets because we’re a boy band, a K-pop act, and we have this high fan loyalty"
👑King behaviour 👑
RM is so classy💜💜💜🥺
@@sugaholic9431 And humble too, because they’re obviously way more than a boy band and k-pop act!
wow billboard totally didnt see this coming. also should i mention armys? how majority of us actually know how this chart works because we have researched well enough? our fandom is well researched and aware of so many topics it's so cool.

the music of BTS is always the best for BTS army. Cheer your idol too.
Disrespecting BTS? You crossed the line BB😏
BTS are so down to earth and so humble. BTS are incredible artists. They incredible music writers and music producers. They write their own music. BTS writes from the heart. BTS makes masterpieces. BTS music is so relatable. BTS songs always have a meaning behind it. BTS loves to keep you thinking. Almost every song has a story behind it. That what I love about BTS. BTS makes you feel that you are not alone in the ups and downs of life. BTS uplifting songs and lyrics and their love myself message is the reason why BTS has become so big. BTS message of self love has inspired youth all over the world. BTS has changed a lot of life's. BTS Tech's us to love ourselves for who we really are. And to better the human race with kindness and love.
they suddenly explained all this shit when no one buys their stupid magazine. they are literally sabotaging themselves by treating BTS like that, of coz army wouldnt give a shit or two bout buying something that is tooooo obviously bullying their beloved artist. it is not rocket science. i always knew BB is biased but never that i thot they make the fool of themselves like this.
BANGTAN SONYEONDAN👑

Since this has been all cleared up, ARMYs should do the same with BUTTER remix since this is the most "Organic" way rather than giving "free car washing" huh.
After this many years Billboard had explained everything to us..... see how big is BTS....... chart manipulation hmmm it's all Ur rules..m

Yes all those artist did it without the help of their fans except for bts. At least you made it sound like that couple days ago.
OK ARMIES LET'S CONTINUE DOING OUR DUTIES BECAUSE: "TALK IS CHEAP"
@James Henry Smith What if the Armys are the devil cuz at the end of the day they're the people who made k-pop this famous
One thing Billboard.
The respect... changed into disappointment.
Stop justifying what you accused to BTS and ARMY, instead apologize.
It's simple. You disrespected BTS, you disrespected the fandom, you disrespected bcoz you can't accept that we are massive and able to spend money, time and lot of efforts for our artists. And you can't accept that.
Keep explaining , and please explain about the questions asked in the interview with BTS.
I wonder how will billboard explain the so called chart manipulation by the armys whereas all we did is streaming our favorite artist's songs.

Best songs
I never forget billboard what you did for bts in your interview. First u need to know how to respect bts. U never ask to other artist for about their bundles and payola. Bts never did this type of things. They have the biggest fandom in the world that's why they are going bigger and bigger every year.
CHANGE THE RULES BECAUSE OF BTS, LET'S HIT AHEAD ALWAYS. GONE IS THE ERA THAT BTS SUFFERED HATE WITHOUT DEFENSE
Billboard want BTS for their ratings
i have a feeling people are confused in the comments The Billboard Hot 100 Chart is only for the USA lets say an artist has the biggest song in all history but mainly outside the USA, it probably can still not be #1 since Hot 100 is a chart for the USA.
Why are they explaining this now?! And fans get their artists to number 1 ? I thought in a recent interview/article they had called it manipulation! Wow Things change pretty fast
Fairplay does not need to be explained, it is self explanatory. If you justified yourself by explaining something that was already known, is it just a bunch of excuses.
Billboard obviously did not acknowledge the fact that they did Bts wrong in their Magazine with their accusations. I hope they just stop using BTS in their articles and videos once and for all because they don't deserve BTS and ARMYS... #BillboardStopUsingBTS
Why’d you show so much BTS in this video? Gonna blame them for manipulating you? Hmm
Out of the blue, they’re releasing this “explained” video. Quick, let us all act surprised. 😱😱😱
Perhaps Billboard is worried that nobody will buy their $175 highly expected sales and over-printing of "Billboard 2021 Limited Edition Collector’s Box Set featuring BTS" so they came out with this so-called explanation video.
@@emilyl1094 i won't even buy that shitty article they published. Well, majority of the armys chose not to buy it. They've been turning a blind eye 🙄

Lol
So Who's gonna interview American singers about their payolas and bundlings regarding chart manipulation?
We know those are your rules then ...why try to diminish the artists and fandoms that are following them?
There is only 9 comments and that also army!!
And the fact that almost all the comments are frm armys will show our strength…
Billboard we already know that the #1 of all time is now Blinding Lights. Y'all should update the All-Time list regularly, not every five years.
did they make this video after the immense backlash they got after asking bts if we were bots or something? 🤦🏽♀️
That's what I think they know they fucked up and now they wanna make this video lmao

Damage control, I see... the recent BTS interview was disgraceful and RM handled it well.
U guys mess up billboard. We know how the chart work thats why we winning. The magazine boycott might happen so u guys should prepare an apology.
Its just the powerful support of the Armys, Billboard. No manipulation happened. I mean how?? BTS got the most number of fans of all ages in this fuckn world! When BTSs songs got no. 1 spot, Its because of the ARMYs. No manipulation. Just pure love and support. 💜💜💜
