mangotflu85k? damn if he does 85k I'm gonna laugh so hard in this thread for a month straight. That'd be the biggest flop of all time
he HAS to outsell Gunna at the minimum, that's 150k, anything less is a flop. 150k-250k is my guess
outsell Gunna why? I thought he was next up? real music gonna last?

He took that little break and people got over him. I can't say I'm surprised tbh.
Crazy how an absence can either make people grow fonder or break your hold on supe om

Yep. A little break is good but being too long away could be damaging.

I agree with the overall message but this is still a massive cope. After the success of uu, DAMN. and the Black Panther soundtrack, a lot of Kendrick fans had high commercial expectations for his next release (whenever that was gonna be) and rightfully so. He had seemingly broken into another level commercially and for the fans who always praised his acclaimed albums, that was another W to add to him.
The music industry has ALWAYS cared about numbers and they'll always care and fans have been caring about numbers now for decades. Only making this kind of video for Kendrick is wack because if it was Drake who did low numbers, he'd never make a video like this. Hell, he'd probably clown the numbers. He'd never even do this for an artist like Cole who is generally regarded as one who makes more conscious music than Drake.
These numbers can be seen as an L for Kendrick's standard without it meaning anything other than that. No one in their right mind thinks this album somehow spells the end for Kendrick commercially, neither does it mean he won't go on to still make incredible music in the future. We can isolate the performance of one album, call it for what it is, and move on from that. There will be more Kendrick albums in the future and more chances for him to prove himself. It's just very telling seeing all the people jumping to defend him and his numbers because it goes back to what I've always said: he's the most pampered rapper in the industry: by critics, by the media, by the fans, by everyone. Nothing he does can ever been seen as an L or a misstep and that's a very dangerous place to exist as a musician because it never lasts forever and when that heelturn comes, it's always nasty but I digress.
This novel is massive cope

Because he wants to make rock music
it‘s obviousIf he wants to make rock music then he should do just that. Nothing is stopping him.
- May 25, 2022g6ntiana
Because he stopped making music and isn‘t really interested in making pop music at the first place
Thats why he put nothing out for nearly 3 years
He said in 2020 he wants to make rock music and the label clearly doesn‘t f*** with it. He probably just want to be out of his contract right now
I don't think the label cares what kind of music he makes. All they care about is that it makes money.

They have to defend Kendrick from any and all kinds of criticism, even though criticisms are harmless lol.

Shawn Cee had the worst review or reaction of the Kendrick album that I saw. He don’t have any reason to defend Kendrick. Just stating facts.
