    It had one of the biggest streaming drop offs for a Drake project g and it’s mostly his project there’s like 6 or 7 solo songs right in the middle

    No. It is still on pace to have a huge streaming first week. These are Global Spotify totals, not US sales figures

    Still it’s an R&B album where most people want his rapping right now so until he drops his solo people just need to stop projecting

    I wouldn’t even primarily say it’s an rnb album tbh

    Global Spotify numbers =/= US sales units

    They can't say s*** like "top 3 first week rap albums of all times" then, just poor journalism

    “R&B collab album” whose numbers are being carried by a solo pop rap Drake song

    At least the biggest song on Her Loss actually featured 21 man

    Now you know that’s not a valid excuse if this was his solo like I said I’m all for the jokes and saying he fell off you can even be the first one to @ me

    They can, because they were specifically referencing the Spotify streaming numbers

    Do we think Spotify will filter out those obviously botted plays? They've been running promo with his team for months now.

    Yall would’ve came in here and said the same thing if it only sold 150K.

    It’s one of the most highly anticipated projects so far this decade, and people will still claim bots lol

    I’ve only ever seen it for like Drake and The Weeknd and such and then this one

    Plus I’ve never seen them saying anything concrete like second biggest of the decade and if that’s true I just expect it to sell more idk

    But yes off rip a 2.5x increase in sales is a good thing. I’m now wondering if the physicals count

    I feel like I see it a decent amount for bigger artist like their album being amongst some records for streams
