    That has literally nothing to do with what you quoted

    They said Taylor couldn’t do Folklore numbers now, when she did 600k 8 months ago with an album that came out in 2012 lol.

    Good thing I’m not asking most people

    I guess us fans who wanted a rap album but better and shorter than DLDT or CLB are disappointed, and the people who like dance music like it? The numbers are very low though, people checked some songs and listened to something else instead.

    drake and swift are the two biggest pop stars in america can we just leave it at that?

    Adele is bigger than both of them

    It dropped 2 years ago and it wasn’t nearly as drastic as what Drake did from CLB to nevermind. That’s just disingenuous to insinuate as such.

    She went with a folksy singer songwriter sound after having done full blown pop music for the 5 years prior. Still has her pop sensibilities, but it does not sound like Lover/Reputation/1989

    If Taylor did a rollout similar to this she is not at all touching 600k imo.

    Her last rollout was very much anticipated and liek you said just a rehash of already loved songs, with the whole premise of it being this is her own version without the greedy labels.

    Funny enough, she literally has done this exact same rollout, so we have something to compare to.

    Announced hours before release and dropped only 5 months after her previous album. Still sold 330k

    This is going to sound like I’m on copium I know but

    This was a surprise drop with no promotion and no lead single.

    Drake and republic play the game so well that if he truly wanted to make sure this wasn’t a flop, he could have.

    It’s very clearly not a flagship album of his

    "Not a flagship album" yall just making s*** up

    "Not a flagship album" yall just making s*** up

    That’s the benefit of a surprise drop. If it underperforms ppl can just use lines like that

    I’m sure there’s some truth to it as well but let’s not pretend Drake/Republic don’t know this.

    Idk Swift does huge numbers constantly she did 800k in 2020 and 600k on a rerelease last year

    Evermore and 30 did about the same first week so there isnt a big gap
