Billboard Editor States, "Psy Could Have Been Number 1 for More than 15 Weeks"

Billboard editor expressed his thoughts about "Gangnam Style" ranking number 2.

Billboard editor Benjamin Ingram stated his opinion on why Psy was still ranked at number 2.

He stated, "Psy's song 'Gangnam Style' song is a song so successful it's shocking. However, if the conditions were different, the results could have been different."

It is because the U.S. music industry is at its most competitive streak right now. If Psy had come out with that song during a different time, he probably would already have been at number 1 for over 15 weeks."
