How to dominate the charts and alienate no one: Lessons from Drake's "More Life" - tech and science - Duration: 4:15.How to dominate the charts and alienate no one: Lessons from Drake�s �More Life�
Drake made history this week in what may have seemed like history making in a number of
ways. Following the release of �More Life,� a collection of songs he dubbed a mixtape,
Drake set the record for the most Hot 100 debuts in one week (21); the most simultaneously
charted Hot 100 titles in one week (24); the most charted titles among soloists in the
Hot 100�s history (154); and the most streaming equivalent albums sold (163,000, the equivalent
of 245.1 million song streams).
While impressive, Drake�s accomplishments come in a period ripe for record setting.
This month, Future became the first artist to have two albums debut at No. 1 on the Billboard
200 chart in successive weeks; Nicki Minaj gained the most total appearances on the Billboard
Hot 100 for a female artist; and Ed Sheeran set the record for the most Spotify streams
in a single week (besting a mark set by the Weeknd four months ago).
The music records set in 2017 will probably be looked back on the way major league hitting
records set in 1998 are viewed in hindsight � with an asterisk.
Are musicians cheating? Technically, no. And certainly not the way sluggers did in the
late 1990s. But they are gaming a system in flux.
In 2014 Billboard changed the rules governing its charts to incorporate streaming. Artists
could sell an album the old-fashioned way or they could accumulate �album sales�
via 1,500 song streams from streaming services such as Spotify, Tidal and Apple Music.
The rule change reflected modern listening habits, and it encouraged artists to rethink
their conception of an album and release strategy. Whereas in the CD era a fan might not have
bought two albums from the same artist in consecutive weeks, in the streaming era, a
time when all albums are accessible through subscription, one album begets momentum for
the next.
And then there is the case of Drake.
Drake�s record-setting performance is as much a testament to his savviness as to his
popularity or even his artistry. In almost every technical way �More Life� resembled
an album � the exception being that a physical copy hasn�t yet been released. But calling
�More Life� a playlist signaled how Drake conceived of the project (as a menagerie of
vibes and geographies rather than as a cohesive narrative) and how the listener was meant
to consume the project (fully, but casually). It gave Drake permission to pack the project
with 22 songs. On a traditional album that might have felt overwhelming and dense but,
in the context of a playlist, 22 songs is short and fun.
The genius of loading a project with a lot of songs � and especially a lot of songs
that are distinct, digestible and danceable � is that more songs means more to stream.
More high-profile names (Kanye, Young Thug, Quavo, Skepta) appear on �More Life� than
appear in an �Expendables� movie. And there�s a genre for everyone: grime, dancehall,
trap and vintage Drake. All of which makes it ironic that �More Life� has been showered
with critical praise.
The success of �More Life,� in a way, illuminates what a cynical project it was:
It was built to satisfy modern listening habits and modern success metrics. And yet, it does
both of those things brilliantly and has an ear on the pulse of the world. Gaming the
system doesn�t have to mean cheating the listener. Sometimes it�s just fun to watch
superstars hit home runs.

Interior secretary Trump's border wall may be built in Mexico because "we won't cede" the Rio Grande - Duration: 2:57.Interior secretary Trump�s border wall may be built in Mexico because �we won�t cede�
the Rio Grande
There is virtually no chance that President Donald Trump�s proposed wall along the U.S.-Mexico
border will be paid for by Mexico � despite his repeated campaign pledges � and now
the White House is signaling that the massive construction project may not even take place
inside U.S. territory.
Trump�s Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke made the media rounds this week to sell the president�s
efforts to roll back environmental protections.
The former Montana congressman promised a �very pro-Western� administration that
plans to relax protections for threatened jaguars, which live in northern Mexico and
parts of the U.S. Southwest, in order to build Trump�s border wall.
But Zinke, as admitted to energy and environmental outlet E&E News, Trump�s wall may even have
to be built on Mexican territory, not American territory, in accordance with the terrain
along the border.
�The border is complicated, as far as building a physical wall,� Zinke told E&E News�
Corbin Hiar.
�The Rio Grande, what side of the river are you going to put the wall?
We�re not going to put it on our side and cede the river to Mexico.
And we�re probably not going to put it in the middle of the river.�
According to international treaties signed between the U.S. and Mexico, the 1,200-mile
long Rio Grande is the official border between the two countries.
Zinke didn�t elaborate on how the wall would be built if it weren�t located on the U.S.
side of the Rio Grande or in the middle of the river.
His comments are the first from a Trump administration official to suggest that the U.S. should build
the wall on Mexican territory.
In an executive order on border security released in January, Trump called for �the immediate
construction of a physical wall on the southern border.� According to Trump�s order, ��southern
border� shall mean the contiguous land border between the United States and Mexico, including
all points of entry.
The massive construction project has been estimated to cost as much as $22 billion � more
than the $16 billion price tag that Trump often cited on the campaign trail.
The White House has already requested $999 million from Congress to build 48 miles of
the wall.
But at least one Republican in Congress has already shot down Trump�s chances of receiving
any financing from Congress in the spending bill that must be passed by April 28 in order
to avert a partial government shutdown.
