Wait. If X sells "100k" now publications say "X has sold 100k albums in his career. The industry cant have them saying "X has sold 100 albums"

They should drop it and as U said focus on the streams because it's the reality of the situation

It's charted for more weeks than Take Care, but Take Care has moved way more units.

They also report streams lol. We're in the SPS era now (sales plus streams) so the 'units' being reported include BOTH sales and streams. In some cases, acts move a ton of pure sales and very little streams and in some other cases, it's vice-versa. Either way, they're all considered 'units.'

Only real s*** going to last. All that other s*** is here today and gone tomorrow.

No, it hasn’t.

GKMC 3.6 mil copies
Take Care 3.4 mil copies

Either way, it’s ok to be happy for Kendrick and Drake. You know that right?

his #1 streak seems like it’ll finally come to an end with the k pop album, lil baby and taylor swift all coming for #1

Drake was competing with Bey, Cole, Rihanna, Weeknd, Bruno and some more heavy hitters for that record Bunny just gotta outsell Quavo and Takeoff

Billboard 200 top 10 this week:

TC is over 8M
It was certified 6x platinum in 2019

You really made these numbers up

13 weeks at #1 for a Reggaeton album. I never would have imagined. The genre has come a long way.

GKMC needs to be re certified. Maybe I could be way off, but it’s gotta be hovering around 6 or 7X platinum by now?

I thought I saw somewhere that DAMN. was at 6 mil US. Kendrick is due for an update.

It was last updated 3x Platinum in 2018. It's likely moved around 5M+ units right now.

I didn't even see them quote me because I have them blocked but yeah. Take Care will be eligible for a Diamond certification by 2025/2026. Scorpion/Views will be eligible for Diamond certifications by then as well.

Yup and ML will be 7-8x platinum by 2025, which is insane for a side project. I believe ML was around 4M in 2019. A lot of people don’t realize how big ML was, 500k first week while missing 2 days of sales. It would’ve did over 600k first week with a proper release. I don’t even think ML has any music videos. S*** would go diamond if he care about it after it dropped.

Agreed. He'll have at least 5 Diamond eligle albums by the end of the decade. That's wild.

Racist c**

Bad Bunny had to compete with Drake, Beyoncé, Kendrick, Harry Styles, Post Malone, YB, and all these K Pop bands to get that record.

Drake and Bey dance albums
Mid Morale
Post Label Dispute Malone*
YB😂
K Pop😂

See what happens when Drake doesn't drop a rap album? He's been making rap look good for 13+ years now.

If Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Bruno Mars or Drake released a similar compilation of their biggest hits, it'd do the same thing, maybe even better.
