    Crying, midrick stans writing dissertations after swearing Mr Borale and the Mid Steppers would do 600k first week

    S*** almost got outsold by Donda which only had 4.5 days of tracking

    Drake posted a cover on IG and got some haircuts and did 650k. Just accept he is on another level. I predict he’ll do well over 500k for his next project too

    F*** debatin who the goat

    every day i come here i see a brand new stupid take

    todays one: putting up billboards is not advertising

    It is advertising but you can't seriously think those CLB billboards did much. They didn't state it's a Drake album, didn't state the release date.. it just stated vague announcements about the features on it.

    The only people it was advertising to was hardcore rap fans, but they were all aware about the album dropping regardless.

    how many extra sales do you think CLB got from those billboards? I doubt it even improved sales by 1%. People overrate the effect of billboards, look at the Piers Morgan debacle a few weeks ago in the UK

  • May 19, 2022

    OP the examples you used don’t support your argument

    did you not consider the fact that both Kendrick & Weeknds recent albums had none traditionally or even no rollout at all compared to their previous album?

    I mean that does a lot for first week sales.

    People keep talking about the Billboard changes from last year. But the most impactful billboard changes are from January this year.

    The changes this year means people will no longer be counted for multiple purchases. If someone makes 4 Digital purchases of an album it will still be counted as one purchase. AKA BTS and Drake stans can no longer manipulate numbers.

    For example if we look at the Weeknds numbers.
    Dawn FM did 148k this year when After hours did 440k in 2020.

    Kendrick going from 600k in 2017 to 320k in 2022 is MEGA.

    If we ratio it the same as the weeknd that would be around 1.2M in 2017.
    No artist other than Drake, Adele, Taylor swift will be able to break 400k AT MOST & they would need HUGE promotion and have physicals on release too.

    Just not happening.

    Kendrick 320k is MEGA after the Jan 2022 change.

    This post is so stupid, I don't even know where to start from. Drake did 575k units from streaming alone with CLB. He doesn't need pure sales to do the numbers he does.

    Just enjoy the album Kendrick stans. Ignore the numbers

  • ragedsycokiller

    I feel like some odd ball Kenny fans who hate Drake more than they enjoy Kendrick are doing these threads lmao.

    Yall feeding CLB section

    That's most Kendrick stans tbh. The real Kendrick stans could give a damn about what Drake has going on.

    Youre talking about one person buying 4 copies of the same album correct? Or a different rule

    Yes digitally people did this. They still can but it will count as one

    man justin was down bad

  • e t

    We really going to pretend CLB didn’t get a massive Kanye vs. Drake stimulus? It didn’t need any other rollout. Every single Drake hater I know was up at 12AM scanning CLB for subs and beef commentary.

    You're dumb if you think they weren't going to stream CLB regardless. Most people didn't care for whatever beef him and Kanye had. They were just excited for the new Drake album.
