    How is give me a hug doing so well tho? Is it because he talks about the beef, and that it had the celebrity push? Because Nokia should have that songs success.

    nokia might be a slow burner, gimme a hug was the clear standout from the first few hours it was out

    Gotta be the beef reference because the song is a goddamn mess and the hook is garbage (and kind of creepy).

    I feel like I’m being gaslit, I did not understand the ye tweet at all, it’s extremely mid and kinda on some woe is me s***.

    Mix is ass and those beat switches do not hit at all.

    That last one genuinely sounds so forced, and it’s kind of hilarious considering Drake literally says he’s dropping harder s***.

    Eh, that's what they're supposed to say. That's why they tried pushing the "West Coast is up" narrative that we know isn't true because only Kendrick is up. It's an entire region trying to ride on Kendrick's coattails because he's hotter than he's ever been.

    You think they'll ever go on any platform and suggest Kendrick will disappear? No. And maybe he won't but that's up to him, not any of them. Kendrick has always marched to the beat of his own drum. I don't see that changing now.

    Tyler the Creator’s album sold very well.

    Give Me a Hug is hard to listen to at times for me because he does those filler bars he’s been doing recently on a bunch of his rap songs

    Lines like “Truer words have never been spoken” just break my immersion tbh

    Kendrick will always be able to do numbers he’s LITERALLY a legend.

    If Mr Morale numbers are the low point for him, then all that means is that he has the ability to grab massive attention just off the strength of his legacy.

    At any time these guys are capable of outselling their worst selling project so I don’t understand the hysteria whenever one of them doesn’t light the charts on fire

    Also if we doing that, that means Kendrick’s floor when it comes to sales is 295K. $$4U is on pace to be Drake’s third project to sell 200K

    i think TPAB sold less tbf

    but I think TPAB and Mr Morale both prove that Kendrick can drop complex, non-mainstream music and still do big numbers

    TPAB sold 324k first week and actually broke the single day spotify record at the time at 10 million streams, this was before streams counted towards the billboard 200 or hot 100
