    she’ll just find another way I never imagined someone doing 1 million sales first week after they got rid of merch + digital sales bundles but she found a way

    Oh, she'll definitely still pull 1M+ first week with future releases. Her fans will find a way to still show her extreme support. But I think the days of her pulling 2M+ first week are done with.

    These new rules effectively take away her ability to reach those heights again, as well as her ability to keep pushing new versions of her album to keep it at #1 like she did with TTPD.

    You told a lie. It didn't have a drastic drop-off in streams.

    Ask yourself why you're determined to use a collab R&B album as the barometer for Drake's current commercial standing. Why not just wait till his solo RAP album drops in a couple months?

    I will be judging based on what the artist gives us

    Plus I already said I’m only really comparing GNX to HNVM

    20 different vinyls ain’t cutting it no more

    I actually hate her so much lmfao

    it was only for digital albums.

    Compare GNX to Drake's next solo rap album.

    That's a question for Drake and PARTYNEXTDOOR.

    So is the fact that partynexdoor is credited first more important than the fact he’s on less than half the runtime?

  • TheFader

    This is the biggest one so far in my opinion

    He literally released 4 different versions only available in his webstore. That is a D2C exclusive.

    They barely sold a few thousand, now he suddenly adds a bonus track this time and sells 200k digitally lmao please stop.

    You’re not the brightest are you.

    The actual deluxe was not a D2C exclusive.

    The only thing exclusive to his web store were “signed” digital copies and alternate digital cover copies that were available for literally one day only. Who the f*** is being signed digital copies of an album

    I don't think it matters that much. Even if Drake was on fewer songs, he was always gonna be the one who carried the album commercially because he's a much bigger artist than PARTYNEXTDOOR.

    I think the pricing s*** is a little weak. The only ones that’s hurting is the fans. If an artist wants to take a financial loss on physical copies by selling them for cheaper, that’s on them. Don’t punish the fans for their decisions

    You repeated what I said. Literally.

    “ The only thing exclusive to his web store were “signed” digital copies and alternate digital cover”

    Yes, THREE versions with alternate covers exclusively in his webstore + ONE version with an signature exclusively in his webstore makes a total of FOUR versions exclusively available in his store first week

    That is true but that’s why I’m weighing it more on Drake than Party

    But yes Drake could surprise me w the solo for sure
