Only reason why Kendrick stans responded so heavily to HN was because Drake fans was literally making fun of 300k 1st week lol
not sure how they don’t get this lol. it was just hilarious seeing Drake underperform so much right after the display his stans showed with Kendrick’s album
It started with Drake fans always (rightfully) celebrating his success and stans of other artists getting pissed about it either because their faves weren't putting up the numbers were putting up or because they were just pathetic.
Interesting take
I remember a conversation we had a while back where you specifically told me that Weeknd fans were getting too cocky and arrogant during the success of After Hours/Blinding Lights, which you said was the reason many Drake fans were clowning us when Dawn FM underperformed. Why is it okay for y’all to celebrate your favorite artists achievements, yet are so quick to shoot down other fanbases for doing the same thing?

Yup
"Kendrick stans added 500 pages to this thread!"
I wonder why? 🤔
holy f***
Stop saying that. This thread didn't start out as an Anti-Kendrick thread. Many people were foolishly thinking his next album would do upwards of 1M first week and I made a thread explaining why that wouldn't be happening. How is that hating? Especially when I ended up being right?
Again, no one (I'm assuming you're referring to Drake fans here) is scared of Kendrick. No one. Throughout both of their careers, Drake has been the more consistent, dominant and successful act and it's not even close. What's there to be intimidated about?
People dragged Kendrick because he dropped a mid album AFTER talking big s*** like he had a nuclear bomb on the way. That's all. Anyone in their right mind knew even if he dropped DAMN part 2, his numbers weren't going to come close to CLB's numbers because he didn't have the pure sales boost this time around. I broke all of this down in the first few pages of this thread.
Sister nobody in their right mind thought he was doing 1 milly lol but Stan’s of various artists jump off the porch with crazy numbers, why not make threads addressing those people as well? Given how Drake Stan’s have acted towards Kenny over the years nobody will put it past you that you were being shady. The main point of this thread whether you wanna actually admit it or not was to get people riled up and clown Kenny and his fans lol.
big AK pointed that out too. Drake folded too soon on the dance s***. if Kanye is making gospel, he gon force it down ppl throat
Kanye isn’t a great comparison because he did the same thing with Bound 2 at the end of Yeezus
Will she beat predictions like every artist* has this year?
*excluding Kendrick and Jack Harlow
They were the first ones to drag Honestly, Nevermind's numbers.
And please, please answer this truthfully: Who were the first ones on here to drag Kendrick’s numbers? This is the type of deflection/gaslightish bullshit that makes people really not like you guys lol
It's called reciprocating energy. That's all. Drake fans haven't forgotten the weeks Kendrick fans spent dragging Drake's numbers. Don't dish it out if you can't take it.

Man what

What were y’all reciprocating when Mr. Morale dropped?

That dude is in such denial it's crazy
They've become fake fans of over a dozen artists and Drake eventually outdoes everybody and they go right back to square 1. It's hilarious to watch lmao.
I promise you, many of them that magically became Bad Bunny stans this year will jump ship the moment he starts underperforming. They already did it to Post Malone lmao.
I noticed that too. Even as far back as Kenny Chesney. They always act in bad faith and gaslight every chance they get and wonder why it's hard to take them seriously. Now we're supposed to believe Drake stans bullied everyone after CLB when Drake hate on ktt goes further back then that
he means putting a regular song at the end of the album
Bound 2 was a "regular" song
In what way, it was really just a sample looped with no drums
So she did about the same amount as Kendrick after the same amount of time yet people aren't rushing in here to call it a flop for hundreds of pages
Very curious
Yoooo , everything be good with you?
Been a lot better actually
how bout you fam?

Well, that's you making assumptions that aren't accurate. I originally made this thread and linked several tweets from Kendrick stans/hip-hop accounts all saying Kendrick would be doing 750k-1m with whatever he dropped next and none of them seemed to understand why that wouldn't be happening and how the musical landscape has shifted since DAMN.
There was a thread about the projections for Kendrick's next album and people in there were saying the same thing about how he'd do 750k-1m first week.
I made this thread to EXPLAIN why that wouldn't be happening specifically so he wouldn't get dragged when the numbers officially dropped and he was NOWHERE near that ballpark.
The girl's tweet I linked to even got dragged on Twitter and had people explaining that Kendrick wouldn't be doing 1m first week and she deleted the tweet and admitted she didn't know the changes that had happened since his last album.
Love this top 5 fam
My top 5 right now are
Low
Seek & Destroy
Love language
Used
Open arms
My list might change this album is just too fire she really delivered
her and nas both delivered this year
Beautiful list, beloved. Seek and Destroy is another fav that’s interchangeable with Notice Me.
Im happy SZA avoided the sophomore jinx and made an album that was true to herself instead of ctrl lite to oblige casual fans.
So why is does it have some ratchetness when she does some songs with that sound vs white popstars
I get what your concern is but I think bro said that because in one of em, one of the opening lines is:
"You were balls deep but we beefin now"
Another one is her repeatedly screaming the chorus:
"I f***ed him because I missed you"
Typically, popstars play it safe and sing about "How could you do this to me? You're such a liar. I was just a young girl and you hurt me" type s*** over these songs. But that ain't SZA. She's vulgar, she owns her sexual nature proudly, and it makes for more interesting music
