    Yeah I know youre skeptic, my energy was more towards the person who thinks it was 90% bundles

    Alright.
    Just saying I'm the guy who wanted a source. Without a source realistically I could see it being 100-200K from bundles. Not against Kendrick were just not in a CD era and weren't in 2017. That would leave Kendrick selling 162K - 262K pure physical.

    I know, that’s what I said

    You were skeptic and wanted a source so my energy wasn’t towards you…

    Yes exactly, both artists tried something different

    One was just more successful at it

    What did Kendrick do different?

    What did Kendrick do different?

    Morale was much more self reflective and tackled topics never heard before from him

    A track like We Cry together, Auntie Diaries, etc were much different than what most people expected from Kendrick

    Because it’s shallow validation

    There’s no success in TikTok engagement

    It’s empty and hollow and just some dopamine to get you by until the next video hits

    Not as shallow of validation as you coming in here being antagonistic.

    I wouldn't say that's as different for Kendrick as something like HNVM is for Drake tbh.

    It's the validation of attention you are getting.

    If we just wanna talk about different socially

    TPAB was that and did well and is also looked at as one of the greatest albums of all time

    But at this point Kendrick going left field isn’t a shock to the system anymore

    Lol there's no chance he's dropping a diss track or a hit record while flying to India for the Ambani wedding. People also rumoring that he might pop up at Wireless (concert in London) OR go to Montreal.

    Yeah I guess that's the difference here.

    There's some new subject matter in MM, but I wouldn't say "it's a therapy album, not a regular Kendrick album" in the way I'd say HNVM isn't a regular Drake album. Nowhere near identical when it comes to approach.
