    LV Sandals received a million streams in its first month

    It and Phantom were blowing tf up

    A million streams in a month is like 33k streams a day

    Globally he's already bigger. Americans just don't like the accent.

    Sure but Batz was getting features and placements out the whazoo. That’s what being a plant affords you. What has Esdee got?

    Yeah because the album is good, the singles stuck, his team knows how to use tiktok, his sold out tour was popping, and he leverages great marketing using persona and maintaining demand by not giving too much

    What’s the beef. Most of yall would kill for 33k streams on the lead single for ur debut project a day and still not know what to do with it

    You're right, I was mistaken with the June date. That was when the album dropped and made 0 noise. They pumped his Spotify at the beginning of September and coincidentally, that's when his music actually started blowing up

    In June of this year he dropped his debut album Rebel, but it wasn't until three months later that it started to gain traction commercially, appearing at the lower end of the Official Albums Chart Top 100 in September at Number 82, and it's been rising week on week ever since. Breaking the Top 40 for the first time in early October, Rebel rose to Number 29 last week. The project includes previous tracks LV Sandals, 4 Raws and Rottweiler.

    And here's his organic playlisting he got while "unsigned" lol

    What kind of plant drops an album to no noise?

    No beef. I wish him nothing but the best. I've always found it incredibly corny when artists pretend to be independent when they aren't, but I doubt that's even his decision to make. Sorry to burst your bubble, but going from no playlisting to 60 million in a couple months doesn't happen for independent artists. I hope you keep listening and enjoying his music despite knowing he's a plant.

    Do you have any actual evidence or are we making sweeping assumptions based on correlations so we can suck the fun out of things

    It happened for all the Vine breakout stars in 2021-2023, they just didn’t have the momentum to keep up with it

    Just say you think it’s inflated or the hype is manufactured. Still incorrect but
    A plant is careful work it wouldn’t be this sloppy/random
    Esdee blowing up the way he has is lightning in a bottle, you couldn’t model that. How would you even apply this again

    But I remember Fetty Wap being a plant arguments, which I paid no mind to

    Yall will confuse reductive thinking with common sense till the end of time because you will come to answers faster and think it makes you more correct
