She isn't really killing it there tbh. Her #1 song there is pulling less than 2M US streams daily and some songs have already started to drop. I think the album ends up debuting with less than 200M US streams, maybe even less than 180M US streams. Only thing left to save its debut week numbers are the pure sale units she's able to garner from those box sets she sold.
need a website that measures US sales by first month/first 6 months/first year
would be way more interesting imo
Yeah, her isolating her catalog from other platforms at the start of the streaming era definitely plays a part in her not being a bigger streaming force.
It's crazy because despite having a music career spanning 25 years, she's really not that old. She's just 40. That's just 5 years older than Drake and 3 years older than J. Cole.
She has charted 0 albums on the Billboard 200 for years now and even the release of Break My Soul wasn't enough to inject new life to get catalog.
My guess is the album debuts with around 250-300k units but falls off really fast after that.

That'd be a great idea but you don't really need a site for that lol. You can just check to see what the album is doing 6 months later or 9 months later and it'd only be for major releases since those are the only albums that'd be doing any of damage after that amount of time passes.
🚨 CERTIFIED LOVER BOY HAS OUTSOLD MR MORALE AND THE BIG STEPPERS
CLB: 22,890
Big Stepper: 22,324
An album that's almost 1 year old btw

I just wanna compare albums easier tbh, probably be some surprises in there

We still don’t know when the visuals are about to come, that will soften the drop. It’s also just the first album of a trilogy that can last up to 2 years of releases, it’s not gonna drop off the charts. I’m sure she and her team know all that, and are aware of her underwhelming streaming performance the last few years. It’s a nice debut, but the post-release strategy will be key!
That’s what they all say
So you saying bad bunny gonna be big in 2030? It’s rare that a artist last over a decade of being dominant. A new Latino prob take bunny spot by 2028
Do I look like a f***ing fortune teller my guy I don’t f***ing know but I do know drake is basically on cruise control and he’s boring now and bad bunny is fresh and exciting

Had to support TIDAL cause of her husband but it stunted the streaming numbers
Luckily they don't want for money (obv cause your husband co starts a streaming service) and the streaming dividends don't matter cause she doesn't need music contracts
How has he changed the landscape of music lol
How has he not every Latin artist wants to make music that sounds like his and now even artist like drake are willing to work with Latin artist don’t be f***ing stupid man
He scored his first major album and is having his first true breakout year so to some people, that means this will last for the next 20 years and he'll only get bigger with each passing year lol.
Yeah but real ones know he’s been the s*** y’all just late to the party
Bad bunny can’t be the biggest rapper in the world when he doesn’t have the culture in a choke hold. Drake has the rap game and urban culture in a choke hold. Drake brand is way bigger. No one hip hop is tryna sound or look like bad bunny. Nobody will bring up bad bunny in rap debate in the barbershop either.
One of the most ignorant post i have ever seen here
First and foremost, Bunny has been leading the culture since 2017
Second, he obviously aint a Hip Hop act, why yall dont understand this
Do I look like a f***ing fortune teller my guy I don’t f***ing know but I do know drake is basically on cruise control and he’s boring now and bad bunny is fresh and exciting
Thing is hip hop is so trash now and full of tik tok rappers, drake can be on cruise control and still dominate this decade. Drake gonna be doing numbers until he hang it up. His catalog will also continue to make him the most streamed rapper through the 2020’s. We also didn’t have to be a fortune teller to know drake was gonna be around for 15+ years once TC dropped.
How has he not every Latin artist wants to make music that sounds like his and now even artist like drake are willing to work with Latin artist don’t be f***ing stupid man
Bro think bad bunny invented reggaeton 😂
🤣😂
No way. Bad Bunny really running this game

Drake worked with latin artist before anybody knew who a bad bunny was lmao

True. Either way, she'll be good.

Drake been working with Latin artists years before Bad Bunny came on the scene but let them tell it, Bad Bunny is why he's worked with Latin artists

And the interesting rappers die/get killed
Bro think bad bunny invented reggaeton 😂
Your f***ing stupid if you think bad bunny makes reggaeton maybe a modern take on it or an evolution of it. His music sounds very similar to some of the hip hop we already listen to hence his crossover appeal bad bunny ain’t out here trying to sound like daddy yankee but daddy yankee sure as f*** trying to sound like bunny. You’re sounding like a clown who talks about s*** he doesn’t know anything about.
