thegreatdivineAlso:
In the United States, Damn debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 with 603,000 album-equivalent units in its first week of release, becoming his third consecutive album after To Pimp a Butterfly (2015) and Untitled Unmastered (2016) to reach the nation's summit. It sold 353,000 copies in its first week and accumulated over 340 million streams.
Kendrick will do more streams this time around (probably somewhere around 400-500M streams) but his pure sales will be A LOT lower. Definitely less than 100k. That alone will make it hard for him to reach 500k.
what makes you say his pure sales will be lower

mangotfluI don't think disappearing helps artists anymore, there's too many other artists that fill the void now. Do you think the average 16 year old cares about Kendrick anymore? I bet if you ask the average 16-18 year old kid in america who their top 10 favourite artists are you'd rarely hear Kendrick's name. cause they were 11-13 when DAMN dropped. They're into artists that drop regularly. Post Malone, Youngboy, Ariana etc.
i think this a big reason Adele isn't doing insane numbers anymore. Same with Rocky & Big Sean & many others
all the top streaming artists are artists who drop at least every 2 years
adele projected to do 800k and you talking about she not doing insane numbers who is your plug? you actin like kendrick just oblivious or not tapped in to the new generation this nigga came outta nowhere and became a tik tok meme

Dino16-18 year olds were never Kendrick’s target audience so I doubt that affects him at all.
16-18 year olds are the people you need on your side if you want insane streaming numbers though, it's a big reason why Adele's are low whilst Olivia/Drake/Post Malone's are huge

She did 3.3m with her previous album, that was about 3x more than anyone else. 800k isn't much more than other artists. That's my point. 800k is still crazy but it's not as insane as 25.
not many kids are gonna be like "yo bro put on that new adele" lmao. Streaming numbers come from young people
many artists have become tiktok memes and sold less than 30k even. it's not a good indicator
