That's been Kanye since YEEZUS that's worked into the sales figures at this point

Corny

DaBaby and Manson hurt his hype, Kendrick couldn’t outsell with transgender and gay slurs and r kelly discourse stimulus

While true, that’s just utilizing a successful marketing tactic. A lot of the biggest albums have done that. 50 Cent used beef, Eminem used censorship debates, Usher used relationship drama, Ye used pure chaos lol. I don’t feel like it’s really a knock against the result to hate on the marketing - if it works it works.

Cuz uzi was away 2 years. Kendrick was 5.

Idk I feel like if Future did 286K and Kendrick did 227K I don’t think people would be saying it was close

@quadra you was spitting facts on this thread and they was giving you s*** for it smh ktt2.com/toosie-slide-vs-blinding-lights-for-1-song-on-the-hot-100-51842

Gotcha. Yeah I just thought it was funny lmao I’m not really arguing it. Lame that Apple Music doesn’t post their numbers though

If Kendrick had any controversies you would've been saying that the controversies hurt his numbers. Y'all flip-flop like crazy

“There’s no such thing as bad publicity”

Wait for you is SOTY

History shows that comeback singles/album sells even more for the biggest artists but now you people say it hurt him. As I said, the flip-flopping is out of control.

Which part?

Cuz I’m this climate going on a 5 year hiatus only builds bigger expectations for your album and some people even move on

It can go either way brudda

Bad bunny a juggernaut tho he can do huge numbers if teased properly

I love Tems

K dot dropped the best album in the last 2 years

I will almost PROMISE you Kendrick would’ve sold more had he dropped this in 2019-2020

? Can’t be possible because it didn’t do 300K

This but unironically

Wtf does sells have to do with that….y’all niggas watching sales like y’all work for the label lmaoo

Hits Daily Double should let you click on albums and show total sales for those albums. Like what they have for movies and box office numbers.

Would be quite an endeavor but it would be dope lol

I’m joking

I figured lmao
