useless stat in streaming era

Actually not bad for him.

HBO probably mad as f*** though.

Melz was banned so there was no promo

we praising 9k now

soon we'll say ohhh respect he sold 2k

who

I liked the album! Only a few more k to go!

They swore the kids were listening to this trash. Let's go ahead and skip to the next gen already.

And he's signed to Grade A? They love their white rappers over there

Literally one of the worst things I’ve ever heard. No bars terrible flow terrible voice

If you're gonna be a meme rapper you have to at least make listenable music. I get that I'm not the demographic that he's trying to reach... but making music solely for weird young zoomers that sit on their phones all day on discord servers is not going to be profitable in the real world

But that is the real world lol

Ur debut project selling 10k is a W in any sense of the word

if anyone wants to learn how sales work btw

Dudes hype is so fabricated.

i love yeat but half his bars are gibberish, atleast nett usually has coherent bars

the quote unquote leaders of the new school are openly doing local Wal-Mart rapper numbers and no one cares

this could be a good thing if it removes pressure from new artists to be successful early on instead of focusing on good music

I'm saying that the reach isn't there. His only demographic that he makes music for is such a small subset of people.

Drake, Cole, and Kenny are huge because they reach more than just some niche group of listeners.

Raury numbers

But.. I believe Not Like Us/Kendrick vs Drake shifted something in the game. Meme rappers era is over with now. You gotta have actual talent now.

Two things

• having this perspective where everything has to cater to the wider “everyone” and someone should have their career first isn’t gonna do you any favors because no one’s doing that s*** anymore

• this is a 17 year old with a debut project.

actually did much better than i expected

Flop

For the industry ppl. What is the gross income the artist gets from 9k album unit sales

Wouldn’t expect anyone in his target demographic to actually be buying music

I’d say 9k is decent

He’s probably walking away with ~$25k or less
