    So you mean to tell me my original prediction two years ago was correct if the rule change hadn’t happened this year?

    So you mean that not only did Drake sell more than Kendrick but he had a better album

    Damn I forgot about this

    So Iceman barely did more than surprise album GNX while having 6 more songs. Not a good look for Drake imo.

    The larger relative weighting of ad-supported streams would’ve helped Kendrick a lot too since it’s mostly broke people that listen to him

    First rapper to headline and sell out a global stadium tour but his fans are broke, makes perfect sense

  • martian master

    Sales were much different 10 years ago. Views sold 1M+ that year

    Cole sold 280K this year and proportionally, Drake is pretty much doing the same he was back then (doubling Cole)

    For context this is the fourth highest first week this decade behind

    CLB - 613K
    Legends Never Die - 497K
    Utopia - 494K

    It should outsell FATD (402K), Her Loss (402K), GNX (319K), MUSIC (298K) and The Fall Off (280K) for some comparators

    You cant spin this to an L i fear

  • martian master

    Im kidding about the 100.
    But Morgan already did a 37 track album whats 6 more?

    And its not like it grows the numbers proportionaley anyway

    he lowkey could have had them be 3 separate albums on release day then on thusday drop iceman complete and make everyone mad 🤣🤣

    Drake did 100m’s on youtube with the videos and audio.. so no still wrong lol. You conveniently leave out that the rule change was to balance that out.

  • YA ICEMAN ACE

    Those were SZA fans

    People were getting drinks and going to the bathroom during SZA’s performances. I felt bad for her, but it’s obvious everyone was there to be a part of Kendrick’s victory lap.

    Dear Kronic and Shaleirose

    Drake is still him. 16 years later and no one has come close. Most #1’s ever beating MJ. Most #1 albums ever beating Jay-Z. Most streamed Rap Song in a day (5 Minute of bars btw). First artist to ever debut a #1 a #2 and a #3 album at once. 5th largest rap album debut on Spotify opening week (with 3 albums out, easily would have been #2 over CLB). No online digital album sales on a dumbass GNX website. No vinyls. No physicals. The excuses have been hilarious to see. Cope harder.

    GNX - 319k with 30k digital website downloads

    ICEMAN - 460k off streams with 2 other albums out taking streams away from it

    IM GONNA SHOW YOU WHAT TO DO LITTLE BOY

    Longest charting rap song of all time

    NLU most streamed rap song of 2024 and 2025

    Highest grossing hip hop tour of all time
