Hmm I was going to bring up Beyonce but she did 617k

still Beyonce wasn't like some big album artist at that time and the surprise drop was huge for her considering she did double her normal numbers

so Idk I feel a surprise release can usually do more for you considering its spontaneous and fuels instant excitement

Don’t think one artist doing well from a surprise drop means they automatically mean more sales.

Traditional rollouts have still shown to produce better results.

fake streams lol

Another L for white women, NEXT!

650k first week independent

Oh no I def think she was gonna do close to 800 for sure. Maybe a little more. But this was referring to to Adele. I don’t think she gets to 2 million first week without physicals being as easily accessible.

I'm actually surprised at this, judging by my family and friends actually talking about and listening to a Taylor Swift album (they never do since they aren't really fans) they really enjoyed it so I thought this was gonna be huge.

Who?

biggest artist in the world atm

Drizzy Corleone the mob boss?
