    If you actually took the time to look, you would see that the vinyl do not even ship for another three weeks, meaning they don’t count towards the first week sales.

    There was only one bundle package that would contribute to the first week, and that was the CD one.

    they not even like bundles of the old days now u have to actually want to pay extra and get the album included for a discount.

    Utopia sold a s*** ton of digital abums. idk how he does it tbh.

    Niggas have turned spending real dollars on a real piece of art into “fake numbers”

    Whole time streaming is the only metric that is over-exaggerated and can actually be faked

    the way pure sales are tracked right now artists literally cant fake it or even try to manipulate it. To the point where they are throwing out sales from artists owned discords (travis) encouraging people to buy.

    Maybe if niggas was listening to the digital albums they bought but kids don't even know how to listen to music unless it's on DSPs so miss me with the "they bought the digital copy!" shtick lmfao

    Tell him drop some music without selling AI generated clothes with it

    You just mad because Drake can’t even clear 10K in pure sales

    Hope streaming ceases to exist one day that s*** has become a cancer in the music industry, for various reasons

  • Aug 28, 2024

    what are niggas even talking about 217k off a decade old mixtape is crazy in whatever capacity. that man got power.

    It’s almost like streaming and sales are two separate metrics

    Yeah but Drake doesn't do bundles lol. It's actually more impressive that he sells what he does with streaming alone

    20k streaming, 200k physical/bundles lol

    idk why y'all act like this matters. The 200k is still from people buying the music. braindead mfs in here. streaming isn't the only way to consume music

    Drake stans such a stupid group of people man

    CLB hoodies cleared a million easily. Nike literally couldn't meet demand, partly because COVID slowed down production and the stimulus checks gave a lot of people money to splurge, but it very well could've done over a million if bundled with the hoodies not to mention the hats sold out multiple times too. It would've all been dependent on Drake managing to ship everything out first week but the infrastructure is already there since Drake has experience from the OVO brand. They ship pretty fast in my experience

    drake has failed to sell products in the past. travis is from school of kanye of moving product

    actually an interesting point being made amongst stans being weirdos: does drake move merch like that I feel like trav has a more distinct aesthetic through line to his sneakers, merch etc (even if it's pretty well worn at this point) and ppl are more likely to want to rep ts/cj branding.
