article says nothing about the 738k number travis fans are beating off to on socials. There's no source for it at all actually. Probably made up
yea i didnt see source either. but this is how a lot of false stats spread. similar situation with donda first week.
I think they probably added pure sales from week 2 and/or 3.
disagree. drake doin a milli in under a year is definitely a flop while gunna doing that is great.
flop is relative to the artist. like bongos for example would be great for a lot of artists but for cardi thats a flop.
I’m saying though, I think we’re so used to the achievements these superstars reach that we start to take for granted how truly hard it is to release a platinum album.
In my eyes, platinum within a year isn’t a flop no matter who the artist is

Idk it seems like such a low bar for big artists. lil baby its only me is pushin 2 million in a year for example and CLB did like 3 million.
Weeknd literally just had a seven-year-old deep cut hit #1 on the Hot 100
Die For You has always been a single it just didn’t take off as a hit originally so idk what deep cut you’re talking about

Yeah but above and beyond shouldn’t become the bar an artist has to reach just because they’ve reached it previously.
Like for instance, Steph Curry is capable of making 7-8+ threes in a single game, but if he only ends up having 2-3 in a game, that’s not a bad game for him

Die For You is a deep cut, even if it was released a single 7 years ago.

i mean if steph usually gets 25-30 points per game and one game he gets 10. that's definitely a bad game for him.

Wrong. CLB pushed 3M in 2 years, not 1. Unrealistic expectations are ridiculous for anybody, even big acts.

25-30 is a relatively normal good game though.
The better comparison would be Steph dropping 45 in one game, 22 the next game, and thinking the second game is a bad game for him
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
The answer is too nuanced I believe. There are a lot of factors that go into stuff like this, they're people who's job is to find ways to maximize sales/streams
I think people on here like to boil it down to..either people are or aren't listening...but it's generally more nuanced than that with many many factors going into play.
1. 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.
they still gonna be coping about flopFM in 2033

And y’all will still be crying on here by 2043 that it flopped and nobody will care

Not according to HDD. According to them, it did 1.8M in 2021 and 1
2M in 2022.

idk but to me a album doin a million in a year is not a lot for big artists like Drake.

Again, that’s diminishing great achievements just because these artists have accomplished things even more remarkable than that.
An album going platinum in less than a year is always something to be celebrated, no matter who we’re talking about
