related to this but I swear music videos don't get views like they used to anymore
another late night has 7.2m (drake channel + cole) in 3 weeks
Lyrical Lemonade doesn't have a single video above 54m this year (Jack Black), only 2 above 20m
even that new laroi, cench, jung kook song only has 16m in 9 days
Drake reign truly OVER

It's been like that since the 2020's
First off, I think FATD objectively did very well for a rap album without bundles.
That said, Taylor is literally in a different stratosphere than Drake and any other rapper rn.
She not only has pure sales at her side but she's also neck to neck with Abel with having the most monthly listeners on Spotify, most of her albums old and new are charting and selling like hot cakes, she's embarking on what could be the biggest tour ever, she's selling out movie theaters, and she's still the only artist who's shown that she can hit a milli fw. Even with 2 years of hype and anticipation and a Kanye beef, CLB couldn't even do Scorpion fw numbers.
Ya'll just gotta keep it 100 and admit that Taylor's just bigger than Drake rn just like how Drake fans like to show receipts to Kendrick and Kanye fans that Drake is bigger than them.
Numbers don't lie.
Why is a Drake stan running this thread? He's biased
Even with the clear bias
Op is doing a good job
Cuz no one really cares bout sales like that cept op / Drake stans tbh

Streaming era fully took over, also YT Music/Premium ruined music videos because you automatically listen to the audios when you have that
Drake isn’t a real artist lol. How could you even compare him to MJ if the quality and sales aren’t there either

His hits are undeniable and he's been here for 15 years

No person who considers themselves a serious artist would release this song let alone have the thought of creating it

Why are all the Lil Baby stans that turned into Adele stans that turned into Bad Bunny stans now suddenly all Taylor Swift stans...
And they be the ones in here saying they don't care about sales tho. Niggas be homie hopping the most popular artists of the week. At least Drake stans mean it when they love Drake and don't like him for the sales
