I'm just saying one your 6tg album even Kanye did 327 and Kanye is that nigga.

He is not outdoing Scorpion with less tracks, smaller hits going into the album, sales lower, and streams overall still suffering. Stop making up unrealistic things and then acting shocked when said unrealistic things do not happen.

it was 40 minutes of music that's why

Good for a short album I guess

real hip hop is back

No clue, probably for FHD maybe.

What do u think he’ll do then?

people make predictions before album drops sometimes thats why i asked

Shipping early is what they usually did before streaming and s*** got leaked all time. Rodeo is an example of this. And it's a lot easier to find leaks now so it would be a big hit

its better than KOD by far

Drake doin 480-580k

Only eminem, lil wayne, jay z and Kanye would have a higher 6th album first week.

I think Drake doing 600k. Personally. I think Drake will put the machine tk work and gonna have a great rollout.

It's outstripping KOD lol

So we getting Off Season Deluxe or nah?

Perhaps but I don't see many songs on it gaining the success that some songs on KOD did like Kevin's Heart, 1985, and ATM.

The songs have a weird structure too. It's like he's freestyling and there isn't much content to dissect. I think that's why a lot of people view it as a mixtape even though he's apparently been working on it for years

Kanye would’ve did a milli with Yeezus Merch bundles let’s be real

No

A lot of people aren’t fw this album?? Who?? Who??

600k

Physicals are just dead though. Streaming numbers don't translate to the numbers you're saying. Scorpion did 570k off album equivalent sales with 25 songs

shouldve sold signed cds n s***

1. Taylor did 846k with her first new big album, usual first week numbers for her (this was during the pandemic btw). Her following album only did so much less cause it was a sister album, so why would it do crazy numbers. Then she does 291k with the re-release of a 13 year old album. Therefore Taylor doesn’t add credence to what you’re saying

2. Cole is projected to do 280k-310k (without physical sales). KOD - 397k, 4YEO - 492k (363k pure) after FHD, which did 371k, then Born Sinner and Sideline Story which did 297k and 218k respectively. It looks like the 280k-310k range given the lack of a real single + the pandemic + lack of physicals + the climate makes for a first week that aligns with what Cole usually does first week

...so in what way does Taylor and Cole doing their usual numbers (impressively so I might add) lend to the notion that Kendrick’s first week numbers will be a disappointment?

He fumbled the bag not dropping a royal blue Yeezy for the JIK release. He would’ve did a million easy

As a matter fact. Kendrixk Cole and drake have a rare opportunity.

If they all sell more.than 300 k from now through their 7th albums they will be the successful rap big three interms of.consistency.
