no way

MBDTF had actual singles that did pretty well and a proper marketing campaign full of live tv performances on major award shows and SNL as well as a whole 30 minute music video

This project doesn't even have the marketing Yeezus did where he projected 2 songs on buildings around the country and then performed them on SNL.

This project is comparable to JIK right now in terms of marketing although even then JIK had a whole year of performances to hype the sound he was going for.

he can def crack the 327 yeezus did considering he’s largely removed from the trump controversy

Not to mention the GOOD Fridays (practically a free album) drove up hype for it too. MBDTF era Ye was on another level.

He said since tho not that it’d beat it.

That means he’d only have to beat Yeezus’ sales for that statement to be correct. And Yeezus only did like 60k more than JIK.

If Ye comes with over 15 tracks (most his track lists so far are 17-20), big features (hasn’t had a big feature since Pablo and Baby and Bieber are likely on it at the least with more we prob don’t know), and does his regular physical numbers with merch bundles still being allowed then that’s very possible for that statement to be correct

If we had a true Pablo release that would have also likely been then one too. Kanye’s still big in the first week as long as he just comes correct

need a Megan feat on this joint

she cant rap about being a thug no more, Christian raps are her next wave

true pablo release would’ve been 500k plus

Pab would have been 500k

That move by Kanye pays the lights on Tidal to this day

man shut up

if this is 20 songs and comes out on a friday it's doing like 350,000+

F***ing DONDA and RED

F***ing killing me

Who’s this

tbh yeah I didn't realize this would definitely have his biggest features since Pablo and unlike Pablo, actually have a proper streaming release

In that regard, I could see a 300k+ opening

Pablo release would be almost a milli tbh , crazy how big ye was at the time

kaycyy

If hes leaving it might be done

Hurricane

No cap
