there is no comparison between the two. thought you would've learned after that thread roasted you page after page for this reach

which thread? most of ktt thinks rocky is better than cole stupid b****

Rocky is miles ahead of cole

This shouldnt even be a discussion.

most of ktt is lame ass hype beasts so that means nothing. the thread is most likely deleted. in the trash where it belongs

OP is not wrong, J.Cole put out his most generic song of his career with Middle Child and it became his highest charting song to date.

If Cole actually tried he would do mad numbers.

this who yall agreeing with?

ima just dip. bro is remedial

yes easily if he promoted his albums months before release

An image invalidates opinions, ok.

Not only that, an ironic image.

you talking like he doesnt try, man has been looking for Kendrick/Drake's level of success/acclaim/respect his whole career and all he gets is quotes by fake deep twitter hipsters

Its just the internet, man. Calm down

My fault. Meant 4yeo. But yeah ur right kid didnt do 400k but 392k for an album with just a tweet for promotion is pretty big. He could easily bundle, have a smash hit or two before, and really make a commercial album and sell well imo. Imo cole doesnt even try to be mainstream.

Most of ktt is also white and asian so this doesnt help

J cole literally outsold kendrick every time until 2017. It wasnt till recent that kendrick was more successful

a hot single + bunch of big features + bundles + coles dedicated fan base = yes he could do 600k fw for sure

what are his usual numbers?

that's a lot of trying that I don't think cole would do tbh

Would cole not alienate his fanbase by releasing bundles?

Dont just add s***, give it a context, man...

not really, all he would need is another middle child type hit with a drake feat and he would be on his way lol

Op right . 450-500k for sure .

Possibly missed his chance tho

He still gets that respect, maybe not by niggas who bump generic "Trap rapper #1080" but by his peers and artists that are inspired by his music.

When I said the he doesn't try, I meant he stays true to himself and doesn't try to pander to the mainstream with his music, only recently has done this as he hopped on the trap wave and did his whole feature run.

Plus he's been at their level for years, its only been recently where he had lower numbers than their last albums, but he still had the pull to do 350k with a surprise album.

Cuz if drake went from 1 million first week to #300 & debuting at #2

Them Coles #s are definitely dropping next album.

The music field changes too much . Maybe first week sales are just smaller than what they where 5 years ago

He missed his window, the best time would've been KOD if it had better promo

I don't even think Drake or Kendrick will be able to push 600k with their next album without bundles

He could do half a mil easy with singles
600k might be tough tho
