    You say it didn't do much yet it still destroyed Bad Bunny album all over Europe.
    Also, you are comparing Bad Bunny's mainstream sounding album to an experimental house album. Compare it to CLB and you'll see the massive difference.

    Un Verano Sin Ti is doing better globally than CLB was at this point in time.

    Running hip hop is more than sales, you gotta have the culture too.

    Bad bunny can’t be the biggest rapper in the world when he doesn’t have the culture in a choke hold. Drake has the rap game and urban culture in a choke hold. Drake brand is way bigger. No one hip hop is tryna sound or look like bad bunny. Nobody will bring up bad bunny in rap debate in the barbershop either.

    2 different cultures and genres my man.

    Tml sold 447k and is eligible for 3x platinum and people say TC was his breakout album that pushed him to a superstar . Same with the weekend, his breakout album was beauty behind the madness.

    But tc was his actual first album wasn't it?

  • Anywho, Bey numbers in tomorrow. interesting to see whether it will be 300K-400K or 400K-500K.

    As of 2022, these are the 10 biggest music markets globally:
    1. USA
    2. Japan
    3. United Kingdom
    4. Germany
    5. France
    6. China
    7. South Korea
    8. Canada
    9. Australia
    10. Italy

    Bad Bunny isn't bigger than Drake in any of them but people here will have you believe he's the biggest artist in the world because of Spotify streams lol.

    It's incredible that we've reached a point where people can't just appreciate someone's run without setting them up. Niggas never learn.

    Eminem was bigger than jayz in 99-02 but everyone knew jayz was the king of hip hop and he had the culture on lock. Everyone wearing rocawear and jerseys etc. Then he told everyone to stop wearing jerseys and they did.

    This isn't a hip hop discussion? It's a superstar status discussion

    I agree, I think he's running up a good game at a good pace similar to Drake back in 2010

    Idk imagine 2010 drake in the peak of streaming and social media. It’s hard to compare artist that debuted before streaming. Lil baby already got more entries than jayz because of this.

    You realize countries like Japan, China, South Korea, and Italy have their own cultures and music that they listen to.

    I promise you Drake is not getting streamed in these countries like you think

    My point is that Bad Bunny isn't bigger than Drake in any of those markets, yet, y'all claim he's the bigger artist. How? Even worse, y'all claim he's the biggest artist in the world, period lol.

    Dude is minding his business, enjoying his success and y'all are already setting him up for failure by giving him titles he hasn't earned yet.

  • Jul 29, 2022

    3 albums released in 2020, all those YouTube/Spotify streams and he still wasn't in the top 3 most streamed artists of that year.

    This is the biggest year of his career and BTS will likely take the #1 spot on IFPI's global artists chart this year for the third straight year because they're bigger than y'all give them credit for.

    I don’t know why you guys treat countries like points, and the one with the biggest tally wins. You’re ignoring the numbers.

    “Drake wins China!”

    You still haven't told me how you can be the biggest artist in the world without being the biggest artists in ANY of the top 10 biggest music markets lol.
