It’s making a big splash in my Christian friend circles, and they don’t even like Kanye. Never even listened thru one of his albums but they’re bumping JIK nonstop. So I could see this doing very well.

He might say he doesn't care but I can assure you he does. Having a number one equates to some powerful cultural currency plus he's a proud man. Let's not pretend he no longer cares about where his music sits on the charts

If Ye cleared 200k this will definitely clear that

I’m thinking it’ll be in the 300k range

There’s absolutely no way it was the most streams ever in 12 hours. Scorpion had a s*** ton of streams especially with how many tracks it had. All the songs on Spotify still only have ~3 mil streams each.

Best streams for every ye album

I don’t think it will do as good as his previous albums. Reviews are the absolute worst he’s ever had. The delays probably caused a backlash. It will go number one but it might be his lowest selling album so far.

I actually feel Kanye has implemented a number of subtle, clever marketing strategies that will ensure he is about to do huge first week numbers and keep people going back to the album.

1) Talking up the mixing delay through his twitter and his camp then releasing the album only to almost immediately remix it and re-release is something he learnt from The Life of Pablo

2) Short songs, short album.
He talked about this during the Ye cycle.

3) The abrupt cut off of Jesus is Lord leaves you wanting more and I have little doubt the full version will be added at a later date

4) The artwork cover during the middle of a vinyl resurgence world-wide is no coincidence in my opinion. It sent people in large numbers to his website wanting to buy a coloured LP

5) Multiple merch drops during the listening parties which were available online included a DL code counting towards first week sales.

There's probably others, he isn't a Billionare by accident 😂
