MJ Chart Data Week of August 8, 2020

As expected, Michael Jackson is slaying the charts this week so I’m back to update you guys on everything.

Let’s start with YouTube stats as fans are trying extremely hard to get Billie Jean to 1 billion views.

As I mentioned before it is kind of impossible to get it to 1 billion views in 3 weeks as we’re 184 million views away BUT let’s not give up hope because 2021 marks the 50 anniversary of Michaels solo carrier!! Only realised this the other day watching the 30th anniversary concert… anyway, my point here is that we should honour that with Billie Jean having 1 billion views/streams on all platforms, not just YouTube.

Most watched short films on YouTube in past 24 hours:

Smooth Criminal – 586,502 (total – 387,630,537)

Billie Jean – 556,397 (total – 816,460,777)

Beat It – 354,713 (total – 615,461,786)

Almost forgot to mention that official Michael Jackson YouTube channel surpassed 18 million subscribers.

Let’s move on to iTunes charts. Bear in mind that the list only includes Top 100 chart positions.
