Under 300k?! Holy s***
People thought the heart pt 5 could have been enough hype but no one was actually gonna replay that one like they did 4 tbh
THP5 just had no replay value
At the end of the day though a lot has changed since 2017 would a legit single have propelled him up?
no single and making the most inaccessible album ever didn't help
as a kendrick stan I was thrown tf off first listen and borderline hated it. If I wasn't a fan I woulda never gone back.
Man spent pgLang’s entire fiscal year 2022 budget on some deepfakes for social media viral meme bait just to do 286k
& the marvin gaye sample. they taxing
No it’s not, has nothing to do with quality at all.
If more people are constantly listening to a song/album, it is “better”
Kendrick fans watch the youtube reactions they don't even listen to the music
This woundnt be so funny if midrick stans werent so cocky before the album dropped
You called it a classic how are you gonna flip on us like this
How you the best rapper of all time of no one listening to you? How they know you’re the best?
Bro realized numbers were looking bad then made Eminem tweet out a promo tweet and still did under 300k
How tf Em did almost the same w a mid ass album and Ye did the same w a gospel album regarded as his worst tho?
keep the hate going u b**** ass niggas
that just means kdot’s underdog redemption arc is coming
Album just dropped and they already talking bout a redemption arc that they gonna have to wait another half a decade for
That's how u know this was a major misstep by Midrick
In the HEIGHT of the pandemic when streaming was in the gutter
And he dropped that s*** with only a few hours notice and people were here making jokes. Little did they know
You called it a classic how are you gonna flip on us like this
Day of release classic for sure no cap
I’m interested to see what Lil Baby next project does he might can make a statement
Big facts
Album has zero replay value. It even getting 286k was impressive
I can't even get myself to listen to it for a 2nd time, that tells you everything you need to know.
Kendrick fans watch the youtube reactions they don't even listen to the music
Fantano did 1million views in a day and Kenny could barely do a quarter million in a week
What do you mean they don’t count genius lyric page views as sales DO A RECOUNT!!!
Sheesh that's a flop ngl
Still my AOTY tho so
Father Time going triple platinum in my iPod nano
That’s not true, often the music discussion is in the artist thread. I agree that’s it’s not like pop/r&b section on ktt1 though.
Even then it still has people mentioning sales, noticed it with the weeknd, it’s exhausting
