    Stupid f***ing question, but how are these numbers calculated nowadays?

    Are they all iTunes sales? How do Spotify and Apple Music numbers fit in?

    Just streaming from all platforms

    Digital album sales. 10 single sales = 1 album. And minimum 1500 streams = 1 album, depending on the platform. Someone correct me if I'm wrong

    Great points made @thegreatdivine though the project still sounds like a mixtape. No cohesive theme or consistent production like KOD, FHD, or 4YEO.

    Doesn't really matter. Kanye could have called ye an EP and no one would have objected. Same with Pusha, Teyana Taylor and Nas with the 7-track albums they all dropped in 2018 but they all regard them as albums so they're albums. It's not so hard to understand.

    Cole literally saying "this album took me years to make" and people want to argue that it's a mixtape for some reason.

    Like there is no benefit to saying that lmfao.

    Niggas is dumb as bricks.

    Way too high. An album doing 500 million streams in a week should equal 1 mil album sales tbh

    Ya need to chill. Conceptually and the way its structured it's a mixtape, and he called it such. But he changed it to an album. So it's an album

    He said just know this been years in the making
    If you watched the doc he's talking about The Fall Off for the most part

    This is just something to hold people over

    They're probably doing that because it's projected to do less than they expected.

    I'd understand if Cole had dropped some mixtapes/side projects since he started dropping albums but he hasn't lol. Literally every solo project he has released since Friday Night Lights have been albums. He himself refers to The Off-Season as an album but fans have their own ideas as to what the project really is, I guess.

    find one single instance of him calling this a mixtape since he announced it a couple weeks back and you can burn this thread down and all of its inhabitants

    he's barely even talked about it. outside that tweet the only other real mentioning of it is in his documentary where he says off season had the same mindset as the warm up which was a mixtape.

    Don't EPs usually precede an LP to be released within the next few weeks/months?
