Billboard is the most discredited chart now. Wrecking Ball is 99th?

This chart is highly confusing/disappointing me.

But most of all
4 - Closer
5 - Girls Like You
7 - Old Town Road
11 - Sunflower (I haven't even heard this song until now.)

Wtf?!

Many latin songs have A LOT more views than these. But isn't this in the US only?

Billboard is meant to be US only since forever. I would discredit them too since they are constantly changing the rules regarding streaming. It could change the amount of streaming equivalent to 1 song sold.

I don't think the chart is THAT wrong tho, but there's a lot of new songs in the highest charts because of these changes.

I also think Sunflower was a massive hit over there, it stayed in the chart of almost a year. And 33 weeks in the top 10. But not so much in the rest of the world. If you look closer the US always had a tendency of being late to the party regarding worldwide massive hits. For example, Someone you loved by Lewis Capaldi is the N1 song right now, it peaked in the UK like... 4 months ago? The point is that the US is like a bubble for music and people outside shouldn't care too much.
