On a serious note, I can see this going #1 for a month after cause of the physicals

the album just f***ing came out bruh. all will take time to come as he releases more mvs, does more performances, and slowly reveals the storline? I swear people love to jump to conclusions

This site has been like this since I joined in 2013 lol it will always be so

he won't retire the weeknd

who actually looks bad here, him or his label

both

no one

he only looks bad to people who take chart-watching too seriously imo

it will probably reinforce the "bundle tesfaye" narrative in that same populace

I can say with 100% certainty I don’t care that he didn’t go #1, of course I’m happy for all the success he achieves on billboard charts but literally the night of the album release I couldn’t even believe we were getting another body of work. I could give a f*** what lame jokes niggas get off about this, anytime I listen to these songs I’m so happy that I have more music from my favorite artist of all time.

Please don’t let ktt users lessen your enjoyment of Dawn FM

people act like everybody who listens to music keeps track of charts. when its just mostly people from ktt2

i agree. I wish those people will stfu and talk about it in an actual sales thread

some of yall are really don't get it. he DOES care bout the sales and so does republic. he's trying to book a world stadium tour in a PANDEMIC off of 2 albums. mf was discounting left and right and released a "deluxe" to try to save the #1. i can guarantee yall deluxe is coming on 28th now. i just hate it, cuz now music sxn gon come in here and stir s*** up even more

what is this talk of lazy/rushed rollout? dude just decided to drop the album

The need to have a “gotcha!” moment is too strong

but I wonder where he would go from here

Kissland sales led to pop music

but what would lower sales on pop music lead to

we will def be having a different discussion about this in 6 months. just wait yall

Music has become so much less of an appreciation of art and more of a d*** swinging numbers contest to these f***ing losers online it’s SO weird

where is "lower reception" coming from?

I mean lower sales, based on what the person I replied to said
