    Travis is one of the last hip-hop artists who actually pays attention and grinds his ass off during release season.

    And yall clown him for it. Dorks.

    Respect it alot

    purposely takin a loss week after week doesn't make sense its one thing to do it first week or if you had leftovers you cant sell but it doesn't make sense to me besides that

    He found the cheat code

    I say keep the vinyls coming, these other genres game the system in far worse ways w/ zero remorse

    Not sure about a rapper but i remember that country singer who blocked Dark Lane Demo Tape from going #1 by bundling a free album for every concert ticket sold for his entire tour and had like 300k bundles sold

    And then CANCELED the tour

    Travis would already be down to 50k without giving away his album for free each week to create illusioned success?

    Y’all act like just because something is discounted means that people are guaranteed or forced to buy it

    If any rapper right now not named Drake was selling vinyl for $5, they’re not doing 160K in their sixth week

    No, moreso you're acting as if the Vinyl was $30 like a normal Vinyl it would be doing 110K in its sixth week

    The numbers are entirely due to giving away the music at a deep discount. It's still a tactic whether people are 'forced' to buy it or not.

    Between production costs, shipping, etc he prob isn't even making any profit from these sales.

    Selling your album to the point of losing profit just to look successful is illusioned success lmao.

  • New projection for this current tracking week:

    LTISY - #23

    I know - rises to top 40

    Demon - outside of the top 40

    some people haven't gotten them shipped yet.

    It's not a loss week after week if those codes were only available weeks ago. They're just shipping them out in batches.

    A new CD version of Travis Scott’s UTOPIA (Cactus Jack/Epic) is making its way to stores now. The update replaces "Aye!" w/Lil Uzi Vert with "Meltdown" f/Drake. According to Discogs, "Meltdown" was left off the "First Edition" pressing because a last-minute verse was submitted late. A re-pressing of the UTOPIA vinyl with "Meltdown" is expected later this year.

    In the meantime, Team Cactus Jack is clearing out the initial vinyl version using coupon codes and add-on offers through Scott's online store, where the LP is an exclusive. Fans have been able to pick up the UTOPIA vinyl for as low as $5, which helped propel the LP to nearly 200k in only three weeks. How much of the “First Edition” vinyl remains, and is it enough to keep UTOPIA on top for an additional week?

    Yup

    Bongos, hopefully this will be a refreshing sound/song for hip hop taking as to our roots and not a song about ass.
