    Travis could've cut some songs from Astro like WHO WHAT? or Butterfly Effect
    Same with Drake he could've cut half of scorpion for a better album but he decides to go all out on the length

    drake said in hindsight he should’ve cut songs but he was obsessed with ready 2 die at the time and the idea of doing a 20 song double album

    Im not good with math someone explain

    Lmao. Long term the streams come from a smaller number of songs.

    Long albums only "boost" FW sales.

    This is actually an interesting point.

    Tbh it's kinda common sense thing that album sales are being driven mostly by the hit songs, therefore length of an album doesn't matter like that

    However, throwing more songs means bigger chance of at least couple more of them blowing up

    Wonder how the deluxe album trend fits in with this data, is there a big boost once deluxe hits and do the numbers stay the same or actually increase for the older songs after the first couple weeks

    Die Lit

    4 (21%) songs = 50%
    10 (53%) songs = 80%

    u usign spotify api?

    i thought on doing this but for some dumb reason it doesn't provide number of streams for songs

    So it's all manual, checking streams in spotify app for each song - > doing excel stuff
