shaleiroseThe Weeknd is a pop artist now. Besides Taylor, no pop artists are streaming like crazy first week nowadays. This is common knowledge. Look at any major pop release of the past couple years that’s not a Taylor Swift record.
Pop is about the long game
It's weird because I guess people do see him as a pop artist but I definitely wouldn't say his albums are pop, AH wasn't except for like 2 songs. I guess Dawn FM was kinda pop. He puts a lot of effort into trying to make his music relatable but for whatever reason he hasn't been able to build a legion of people on their knees for new music like other top artists, when I think he deserves that
seeing the age breakdown of people who stream him would be interesting cause I doubt there's many 14-20 year olds streaming him. Artists like Travis/Olivia/SZA probably have waaaaaay more 14-20 year olds streaming them. that's probably a big part of it

How didnt it flop though? Olivia, Summer Walker and SZA all streaming way more than it first week makes it a flop to me. That shouldn't be happening.
SZA over doubled Dawn FM's streams first week.. 309k units vs 134k. For whatever reason all of The Weeknd's insane success with AH didn't translate into people bothering to listen to the new album. And I just don't understand why. How can you sell out stadiums but then not get your audience listening to your new s***
You can use the excuse oh they were busy listening to AH still but Morgan Wallen and Taylor Swift both blow that excuse out of the water surely. It's just like The Weeknd's fans don't care too much about new music until it gets radio play. AH had poor streaming numbers too even with BL being crazy big
it's not even like that album had good longterm performance either, 1.06m units in 2022, less than 500k this year
Szas album had 23 songs

Szas album had 23 songs
Doesn't really change much, a 23 track album isn't gonna be streamed 60% more than a 14 song album. Lots of people on here have said that's why Morgan's album so successful, it's such cope lol
Dawn FM 2 more songs than AH yet AH has been about 3x more successful than Dawn fM

Yea number of songs really doesn't matter after a certain number of song especially long term. Usually a few songs make up majority of streams anyway.

Having a lot of songs on an album only helps with first week numbers and even then, you'd have to be able to get people to stream your entire album several times over. Chris Brown dropped two consecutive 40+ track albums and didn't crack 150k on either of them.

bmass 🇵🇭Sep 12, 2023·1 replyshaleirose1. SOS was SZA’s first album in six years, and was her first album since her mainstream breakthrough.
2. Morgan Wallen is only entering the prime of his career, and even still One Thing At a Time is 36 tracks long, comparing the streaming numbers of that album to a 12 track album is foolish.
3. Taylor has clearly been playing in a league of her own this decade, she could release a silent album and it would break 500K.
Like others have been saying for months, it’s pretty clear and pretty easily explainable why Dawn FM wasn’t the massive success that After Hours was, and it has nothing to do with people caring or not caring about new music from The Weeknd. For some reason, it’s only others on this site that keep trying to spread the narrative that the album was some massive failure.
Also, he didn’t start selling out stadiums until six months after that album released, not before.
feel like at this point writing paragraphs about the situation more than a year later is a clear sign of cope- Sep 12, 2023·1 replybmass feel like at this point writing paragraphs about the situation more than a year later is a clear sign of cope
It’s not cope, KTT the only place people still pushing the “Dawn FM was a flop” narrative
It wasn’t his most successful project at all, but it definitely wasn’t a failure either
