We fans have to attack people like Russ, because think back to b4 2015, when you would buy an artist shirt, you wouldn’t even get the CD nor a digital album??
It makes perfect sense to count and deez corny guys are complaining about nothing, X got killed untimely rap doesn’t really matter anymore, let’s just have fun, Carti??

Don’t you have to stream like a thousand times to count towards one purchase?

idk if its a thousand but yeah streams count wayyy less

So unless said person only listens to this album for months his streaming wouldn’t count as 1 whole purchase anyways.

yeah it wouldn't

never said it would

“but now he gets counted twice, for streams and for the purchase.“

More like counted 1.1 times
Personally I don’t think streams should count as sales at all when no real money is getting spent for them

It's still f--k Russ tho. I'm sorry I've legitimately given this man's music a try, it is not good

my point is the dude's not playing the music any more or less, but he gets counted for way more if he buys a hat

What a schifzo comment

Russ normally drops a lot of bars when it comes to f*** s*** going on in the industry. Oftentimes I find myself genuinely agreeing with him.

Still, Russ is corny as f*** and he comes off as obnoxious and whiny a lot of times unfortunately. So I'm never surprised to see people roasting him or calling him lame.

Russ will be the music industry's saviour, God willing

trippppppppppy

One Thing about Utopia there is no song in Top 10 this week yet it sold what 150K+ . Seems like they forgot to pay those stream farms

I still didn’t get my vinyl Trav.

$5 Vinyls

let’s be real Russ has been hating on Trav since before the album dropped

going to back to being in shambles about not getting credit for being the first artist to perform at the pyramids

His streams are legit and doing well

Have u ever tried to support a artist before 2015, by buying merch, do u even understand the topic @ hand?

Merch sales are a GOOD THING, 4 the consumer & the artist

At this point who gives a s*** about sales man… it’s mainly just used for stans to try and dunk on eachother

Now I look at Billboard like, "Is you dumb?"
