    Imo more life sold like that because people were already dissapointed with views .
    Scorpion sold a lot because of the pusha beef and commercially successful single like hotline bling , with CLB it was because of this stupid beef with ye , otherwise i dont see why CLB sold so much this album is pure garbage it really is a mystery

    Nah I'm crying reading this

    This man actually said that an album sold MORE because the last one was BAD. First time in history that it goes that way, all the other times a bad album means less hype for the next album n lower sales

    Wow projections have even dropped lower for Kendrick, even if he does only around 300k that’s still solid considering he was gone for 5 years, minimal promo, no single (I don’t count THP5), and the album not having as much mainstream appeal

    Nope, would def not be good numbers. The fact that he was gone for 5 years made the anticipation even bigger. Nowadays no rappers do any promo, Drake didn't either for example.

    Fact of the matter is that the album doesn't have much replay value. That's what the numbers are telling us.

    It's a heavier album akin to 4:44 so I wouldn't have expected him to do massive numbers lol

    Tweets like this always make me laugh because it shows how much Kendrick fans love numbers and want to use that as a claim to greatness for him but when Drake's numbers get put up, they switch to critical acclaim because they know Kendrick doesn't come close lol.

    Wayne would still be doing big numbers if his team did him right with his tracklists

    Funeral had bad promo tbh. Nobody really knew it dropped plus it dropped a few hours late. Wayne also in latter part of career you can't be on top forever. Even Eminem had drops from Kamikaze to MTBMB

    Even if you don't think Ye is close to Drake, not that many artists got their albums close to what Donda did. He's top 5 at least right now.

    If you just looking at first week sure

    Haha Benz has just started hitting big boy numbers recently. If we’re really gonna compare then drake really is messi. He’s been hitting big numbers since he started. Kenny might be Ronaldo cause unfortunately he’s had to play catch up some years. Sucks to say that cause those two are my faves in their respective fields. Ye might be Dinho or Zizou just for the magic touch

    They also don't realize when you drop an album your other projects get boosted up
