His next solo RAP album is what people should project their commercial expectations on. Now R&B collab albums, when historically, those are his worst-performing songs commercially lol. This is exactly how y'all looked when were insisting that a surprise dance album by Drake should perform how his rap albums simply because they're by Drake. Try to avoid disingenuous takes this year.
I never called Honestly, Nevermind a flop man.
I doubt he drops another experimental album after people didn’t receive HNVM positively, so his next solo record will most likely be a rap record
Thinking 300k-400k for the weeknd album. He should do pretty well on the physicals side
🎯
Another disingenuous take. If this was the Weeknd, you'd have ever excuse in the book ready to go
If Dawn dropped with physicals and sold 200K less than After Hours I would rightfully call it underwhelming.
It did 30K less streaming units than After Hours first week
Drake is expected to drop and do massive numbers whenever he drops, regardless of what he drops, despite him never using physicals but with the Weeknd it's excuse after excuse to explain why an album of his won't be performing well. You can't make this s*** up. Y'all got it, man.

Drake will never love you.
"Surprise dance album"
She said the line
She will never stop with that, good bit honestly

It’s like you are allergic to the idea of context
Yes all artists should be judged equally on the exact same scale
I am now expecting the next TRIPPIE REDD record to sell just as much as TAYLOR SWIFT’S next album

And the last Drake album to drop with physicals was 12 years ago.
Every Drake album this decade not named Honestly, Nevermind has debuted with at least 400k units. He's 16 years into his mainstream career.
How is that an underperformance when he's still outdoing everyone numbers-wise in the rap space?
See how you maintain ridiculous expectations for Drake but find a way to cope for Abel whenever he doesn't meet expectations but still insist Abel is bigger and more successful than Drake?

Because he went from 613K to 400K in the span of two years and nothing about his release strategy changed lmao
Even the difference in Astroworld and Utopia’s first week numbers wasn’t that massive

Weren't you just the same person insisting me saying Abel should do 400k+ with his latest album was insanity? Despite him reaching that mark multiple times in the past?

The Weeknd has reached 400K+ twice in his entire career. That’s his peak for first week sales.
Drake has sold less than 400K+ twice in his entire career. It’s his valley for first week sales.
Should we expect the next Drake album to clear 700K+ since he’s reached that figure twice?
Based on Divine’s logic, I am now expecting the next Drake rap record to clear 720K first week and he will flop if it doesn’t!

And Abel changed his release strategy for this album but you're still coping with downplaying his numbers in case the album underperforms. He has physicals for this album ready to go, same way he did for After Hours. This has even more songs but yet, you're insisting him doing 400k+ is being unreasonable. See how that works?
? what does this mean
95K debut incoming
? what does this mean

You of all people have to admit the bundles for After Hours were despicable, the nigga wasn’t even selling music
? what does this mean
It means XO is cooking the numbers
@thegreatdivine if we’re going off sales numbers an artist has reached twice in their entire career that means that Drake’s next album should clear 730K+ first week right?
? what does this mean
wth
