It's based on the amount of streams that will equate to a dollar

We'll see. His rollout gonna be insane

they might but they won’t need to if streaming services keep growing

Something feels off about the calculation tho

How come we never see numbers like we did in the past...

like im talking 10+M... there are way more countries listening to the same music these days thanks to Globalism and English being so widespread...

Wym. We see spotify numbers not apple but they report to nielsen and billboard and those get posted on hdd.

Sales we see are only US sales and streams

kanye’s biggest loss is that casuals don’t listen to him anymore cause they don’t like how he’s always on some bullshit, drakes still got the soccer moms locked in

Decadent flow but I still got a decade to go

W for Ye fans tbh.
Glad he doesn't lower the quality of his music to appeal to a bigger audience.

His s*** ass tho

my bad i didnt understand we were focusing on US sales here

chartmasters.org/2021/07/drake-albums-and-songs-sales

according to this Views is his highest selling with 11M+

well he lowered the quality of his music for no damn reason for the last 10 years so theres that

good to see him back on track with Donda. hope it continues

you will never recover
i promise you

If More Life had a full 7 days, and the extra day and a half performed as well as the first 5 and a half (unlikely), it would have sold 642k

But if we’re gonna compare apples to apples, reduce the number of songs (22) on ML to the number of songs on Damn (14), and you’d have 409k

To get further into the apples to apples comparison

More Life did 226 pure and 279 streams

With a full 7 days and only 14 tracks it would be at 287 pure and 225 streams, putting it right back to 512k total

So More Life took an L over the lack of days available, but offset that due to the large number of tracks available, ultimately still coming in below Damn

Besides the production on some of his recent releases. I second this statement.

I didn't fill out my W2 in time so Universal ain't cuttin me in this year.

I ain't got a billion streams, got a billion dollars
Inflating numbers like we 'posed
To be happy about this
We was praisin' Billboard but we were young
Now I look at Billboard like 'Is you dumb?'

Ye should sample this

It means it streamed a little less than Scorpion. Not that crazy but solid.

Says the guy that got Samsung to upload his album to all of their phones…

This is wild

Glorified white people music.

top selling albums dont have drake. thats the point

All big rappers cater to everyone and thus white people too
