The website shows total music consumption including album sales, song sales, streaming history, and social media analytics.[4] The data it collects comes from retailers, record stores, radio stations, and music venues. In 2018, BuzzAngle received an investment from Penske Media Corporation, the parent company of Rolling Stone.[5] The following year it announced its partnership with Rolling Stone to provide data for the magazine's music charts.[6]
