Apr 21, 2022HtownwolfThe hype isn’t there tbh
Because he still hasn’t revealed much besides the album name and that made a lot of buzz
I think the hype will start once we see him actually drop something

Apology Men Musicwe gon' be dealing with threads like these for the next 3 weeks huh
We could use this thread to discuss first week numbers for the next couple of weeks (maybe even for Future and Jack Harlow).

Go outside and you'll see the hype
Apr 21, 2022If this is the prediction thread I guess around 282-613k

Apr 21, 2022Adele couldn't even crack a million first week. No illusions about this

Most people probably don't even know Kendrick Lamar is releasing an album tbh
Idk how people expect such crazy sales

600k-700k seems realistic at most
No, that's very unrealistic, actually. I don't even see Kendrick surpassing 400K.

I think the album will realistically do 300-375K (which is still a huge deal) but it feels like people haven't adjusted to how numbers are now for the biggest artists and are still trying to use DAMN's numbers to predict what the forthcoming album will do.
For example, DAMN. sold 353,000 pure sale copies in it's first week (that's over half of it's total first week numbers which were 603,000 units). Kendrick will be lucky to sell 50,000 pure sale units this time around so that automatically removes like 300,000 unifs from whatever his numbers will be.
The Off-Season did 345M US streams which equated to only 245,000 units. Kendrick probably does 100M streams more than that at best and that adds about 60-65,000 units.
My guess is he ends up debuting with about 300,000-375,000 units.
I think you’re onto something here. Knowing Flop Dawg, I think they’ll likely have some bs type bundle to try to stretch the limits of what counts as a sale with a bundle. Probably sell pgLang hats with the album bundled or some s*** 💀💀
It also isn’t helping him that he’s already being mysterious with the release, so not as many people aside from the internet nerds will know about it
Apr 21, 2022I see 450k-550k

Classic Midrick fans
Aside from being pretentious as hell and thinking they are superior just for listening to him, they bleed out of their a******s in a childlike fit of rage if you even consider saying that his albums aren’t 10/10, he won’t go platinum first week, etc. Pretty sad stuff!

Apr 21, 2022·1 replyKendrick is going to sell from 285k - 350k. That’s reasonable especially if it’s left field leaning

Oblivion XAnyone saying a mil is delusional lol
It's the confidence they're saying it with that's very surprising. If you ask them how he'll do it, they have no answer. They just imagine that since DAMN did 600K first week and that was 5 years ago, he should be able to do 1M this time around lol.
Apr 21, 2022Damn. This is the first time since the announcement that how much this will sell has crossed my mind.
Apr 21, 2022selling 5 mill now shut up & wait for the album

Not really. If he did proper promo it would. He’s done those numbers with DAMN lol. Your right he’ll do those numbers if he just keeps quiet like this til release day
Apr 21, 2022Kendrick easily doing 600-700k
