Lol a year long break. I remember that time felt like 5 years.

Then you've got The Weeknd who dropped 3 albums and 1 EP in 6 years and apparently that was too much and it's apparently why Dawn FM underperformed. Ppl are wild fr

Drake still a top 3 biggest artist in the world and his name on the list with popstars and we’re calling it a flop 😭. Like oh my god!! He used to be bigger bigger now he’s only bigger!!!!!!

Why do you care? Shes not gonna f*** you

This kinda disrespectful to SZA, she’s doing almost $2M a show off that album

It's funny these same convos we have about The Weeknd i remember everyone having about Bruno Mars a few yeras ago lol look what happened to that man's career

from serial hit maker (more than the weeknd tbh) to now a complete shadow of his former success

This response literally has nothing to do with what I said. SZA is huge but it doesn’t matter how big you are.. if you drop a 6 minute r&b song its not doing numbers like that

man what

Drake top 3 biggest artist in world? Are you serious?

There are people on billion dollar stadium tours

This guy still running basketball arenas lol

He definitely not bigger than Taylor, Beyoncé, weekend even bad bunny

Bruno Mars hasn't dropped a solo album since 2016

And a huge hit with Leave the Door Open and minor hit with Smoking out the Window lol

Tbf he's not gonna f*** you either...

The Off Season did 280k with 12 tracks lol.

He’s not doing 220k with The Fall Off. He won’t be effected by the drought. His fans are gonna tune in.

I’m confused what point you tryna make, her only recent song over 4 minutes was Slime You Out. SOS is literally not what you described lmfao

Drake is bigger than bunny, beyonce, weeknd.. drake can EASILY sell a stadium tour lmao he was getting away with charging people 1000$ for nosebleeds in an arena tour stop being dense

Considering his dominance in the early 2010s that collab tape flopped + he has put outa decent amount of loosies that have all done meh

Not seen anyone hype for a new Bruno album. He has never been the type of artist that people are super excited for new music from. He's a hit artist, like the weeknd, people just don't wanna face that w/ the weeknd yet

Yes I know lol thats the song i’m talking about. It was in response to something else in here saying it should boost his sales that shes on there. lol

the #1 song contenders are either songs where drake gets super outrapped by j cole or a song where drake says “i stay with that O like a bagel”

Un Verano Sin Ti was like the perfect storm. 300k is possible, but it’s hard to predict since he seems to be going in a different direction with this album.

People must be sad in this thread bc no one has come close in so long and its still going. its okay I promise numbers don’t matter :) enjoy your artists

I think Cole would outsell FATD with a 20 track album with good fts

Thats what i’m saying. Doesn’t seem like its going to be the force that album was. 300k might be hard right now.

Delusional. Like why are you people like this lmao. When has cole ever been close? Never. So why even assume this

The week prior to More Life’s release, there were a total of zero songs from Views currently charting on the Hot 100.

The week prior to Dawn FM’s release, Save Your Tears was still at #18, and Blinding Lights, although it wasn’t currently still on the chart, had just broke the record for most weeks in the Top 5, Top 10, and most overall weeks on the Hot 100 in the chart’s history.

Save Your Tears placed #2 on the Year-End Chart for 2021, and Blinding Lights was at #3. And then, Save Your Tears ended up coming in at #40 on the Year-End Chart for 2022, two entire years after that album released.

For comparison, One Dance did not chart at all on the Year-End Chart for 2017.

People were still enjoying After Hours enough by January 2022 that there wasn’t a clamor for a new Weeknd album

He’s absolutely not…

Worldwide is way different than USA

Okay dreamville lol you’re wrong but okay

The only loosie he dropped was Please Me in 2019 and that peaked at #3

I still think you are just comparing Bruno Mars to the Weeknd cause they look alike lol

Not really similar careers at all
