    The stat is showing that long albums don't equal way more streams overall. If 4 songs are over 60% of an albums streams.

    Almost like people go back to certain songs on certain albums and not every album will eventually go gold or even platinum because listens taper off drastically

    You're smarter than the rest of these guys

    GNX first day was not a full 24 hours so its streams for the other days are skewed.

    Maybe this is true for the second day, but the album has been out for four days at this point, y’all can’t keep making this excuse

    Weeks in the Billboard 200 top 10:

    Drake — For All the Dogs: 23 weeks
    Travis Scott — Utopia: 12 weeks
    Future & Metro Boomin — We Don't Trust You: 11 weeks

    A 29 track album by the biggest male star in the country should be performing like this. This is the bare minimum

    Wouldnt it be more accurate to say its 2nd day was 63 million, 3rd day 51, and we wouldnt have 4th day numbers yet since you admit theres 12 hour difference?

    2nd day = (2nd spotify day/2) + (3rd spotify day/2)

    There is not a 12 hour difference. FATD dropped 6 hours before GNX did

    That means Drake is a singles artist at this point. There are plenty of albums that don’t have major discrepancies like that

    It is true for Kendrick's DAMN album as well.

    How does this relate to what I said about Spotify streams?

    DAMN (Album) total - 8.85b
    Humble - 2.3b
    Love - 1.46b
    DNA - 1.24b
    Pride - 838m
    = ~65% of DAMN's total Spotify streams

    does AM still have weird discrepancies? I remember a few albums like Summer Walker/SZA etc were getting 3-4x more streams on AM than Spotify

    I have no idea. I just know that AM streams aren't as strong for Rap/R&B music as it used to be from 2016-2019.

    Lowkey turned into the country streaming service

    Drake is a singles artists 🤝 Insisting Drake hasn't scored any hits this decade.

    Imagine being so disingenuous about Drake, you make up lies about the source of his success

    This is the same clown that insisted that CLB and FATD didn't have any hits.

    that s*** is weird man, those country artists seem to be doing like 4x more streams on AM than Spotify

    same s*** that was happening with rap before

    And they also have Amazon Music in the bag. They tend to perform the worst on Spotify, which favours mostly Pop music, especially over time.

    ~6B streams from 4 songs. This 100% proves your point

    It's abnormal for an album by a major artist to drop and not have any projections till Tuesday. Hope pgLang/Interscope aren't cooking the numbers

    My theory is that country listeners are generally less tech literate so they just use the streaming service that comes on their phone

    it is for some artists like rod wave, he probably gets like 70% of his streams from AM

    You would think if that if your making a unbiased thread based on objectivity and chart number accuracy you wouldn’t start conspiracy theories based on your dislike of an artist.
