It’s crazy when you think about it. It’s clear Cole ain’t the third biggest rapper out anymore
Facts
Something to be said about him selling a 100k less than KOD.
No bundles
No bundles
Facto…he did 174k pure on KOD. Bundles played such a huge role in ALOT of ppls sales last few years.
I said it earlier itt but we gotta really talk about how Cole is doing lil Uzi numbers.
And Uzi dropped at the beginning of quarantine
He's doing uzi numbers with 0 physicals tho
took the roster spot of an aspiring young basketball star for album promo while rapping about overcoming the struggle, all to sell 290k. Sad!
Will KTT2 ever realize streaming, billboard charts, and bundles have made judging an artist's relevancy by sales pointless?
Find out
How else will the non blacks and their token black friends discuss rap music
Most people did
I know but it’s Cole. He’s a part of the big three. When other artists don’t sell as much we clown them but Cole gets the benefit of the doubt. Nice debut numbers for TOS tho. Solid album. I bet once they start doing merch and vinyls it’ll do better
In my eyes this arbitrary top 3 is reserved for people who have real MC skills akin to their predecessors coupled with commercial success, and influence/recognition. It’s insulting to say people like Post, Trav, etc are in that conversation when although I’m a fan of both are not in that criteria
He's doing uzi numbers with 0 physicals tho
Uzi only sold like 9k physicals tho
Uzi only sold like 9k physicals tho
That's cause his fanbases mostly streams his music. Cole, kendrick, and drake's fanbase actually buy physicals

Every now and then somebody post some real as s*** on this website . Good job young man very inspiring
290k is good. Album is flames.
Yall need to stop letting losers bait yall Into a debate about s*** like sales.
J Cole in his 11th year and 6th album sold more than every single one of those hot new rappers lol. Trust me he is fine.
He can do an arena tour right now lol.

“Actual numbers that show how many people are listening to someone’s music don’t determine relevancy”

just trying to restore the feeling
“Actual numbers that show how many people are listening to someone’s music don’t determine relevancy”
oh so you dont' read. Got it.
Also needs to be noted that this s*** has ZERO singles on it lol. Closest is My Life IMO and that is easily on the lower level of a far reaching single for Cole. Great song, won’t have nearly the legs of some of coles previous singles. This project wasn’t for THAT.

Touring proves relevancy more than sales lol.
And he did good with streaming. He just didn't have the physicals to go along with it
if j cole had a t-shirt for 3 dollars and bundled it, hed to 800k
what is your point

Pride is the devil is definitely single material.
