There is no way they could hold the top three spots simultaneously. That makes no sense. If they are so popular to take number one, then how are they less popular enough to take number two and three? I'm willing to bet they paid for that. Because the top three are going to be marketed to Spotify users the most I'll bet, so if they are in the top three, all people will see is BT5.BTS Claim The Entire Top Three On Spotify South Korea’s Daily Chart

How's this possible? I would think other groups would hold top positions too.
Most articles do just a bit more research than that, and try to explain how this actually occurred. They don't just write that something happened and expect readers to take their word for it the way that Forbes did here.
Forbes probably got paid to write a bogus article selling BT5 to their readers in the hope that they'd see this "top artist" and be influenced to listen simply because they sound popular.
Edit: I also want to say that I don't know what the demographics are of Forbes readers, however, I highly doubt that pre-teens, teens and young adults read Forbes. I cannot imagine two 14 year olds sitting in home-room together saying "Hey did you read that Forbes article about BT5?"
