I hope Whitney will the number 1 spot next week.
It makes me so happy to see her back again right in the charts where she belongs!
Go Whitney!

Woah! I was just happy about the new Whitney song even charting, so the fact that it’s heading for the Top 10 is awesome to see.
Obviously no complaints about the #1 either! :)

I'd imagine lots of streaming data is missing which will push it down when added

It might be a bit lower than in the update, but I don't think it'll push it out of the Top 10.
'Higher Love' just entered the Top 10 on Apple Music & Top 20 on Spotify, so its streaming figures are actually starting to become decent.
