Didn’t listen to 406 minutes of the final Weeknd album in a day
Feb 25, 2025HaroldsChickenMake a thread for monthly music stats I don’t believe you guys listen to music
Get ya numbers up
Feb 25, 2025·1 replyNeonNigga23i work with numbers so i dont mind sales talk and i genuinely think its cool to see more people engage with this stuff but the point of it being to further beef talk or instigate
Yeah I think data and a***ytics and s*** like that is cool. I look into it when it comes to sports.
People who do it to prop up one artist over the other are the worst strain of music fans imo.

Correct.
Numbers interest me in a purely stat-keeping sort of way.
Anyone using them in debates about art are losers
Feb 25, 2025·1 replyTheFaderCorrect.

But if the s*** don't go double platinum, then how can it be considered a good project?

If it’s going strong for you that is dopeBut you said ‘if no superbowl it comes and goes’ which implies you’re talking about the album’s general success, not your own replay value
Unless you mean the superbowl boosted it for you?

It amazes me that people in here study and track that s*** for free. At least make a twitter page/youtube channel out of it and get paid for it.

When did this generation of rap fans become so sales obsessed?
I know people like Jay and 50 started using album sales as a bragging tactic, but I feel during the 2010s, first week sales were not a major topic of conversation within the rap community.
I was in discussions and threads about albums like Views, DAMN., 2014 4YEO, Rodeo, DS2, etc. and I never remember sales being as much of a talking point as they are right now within rap fandom

I never saw anyone reference sales numbers like that irl or on the internet except for Drake fans.
The most I would see is people saying Wayne sold a million first week but it was usually a foot note and not the main argument
