Saying Adele does little marketing is crazy
To think her label would release her album and put in little promotion
Well y’all consider a normal rollout to be “too much marketing” so I think we’re just speaking on two different definitions

One thing you will learn in this thread is that there's no consistency.
FATD had "no promo" and "no singles" depending on who you ask
Streaming is also rapidly destroying the art of an album cover. Spotify with their little videos and Apple Music with their animated gifs. But with physical it’s always there to look at
Destroying it by adding to it if the artist complies
Makes sense!
You had to reach for this one, I respect the creativity
I mean, not really. Adele does very little marketing and promotion but she’s still touching a million in pure sales.
Drake would benefit from physical sales as well but he’s too stubborn to use them
More Lies.
It’s so sad the levels they will stoop to for that man.
They probably don’t even realize that Views only did a million because it cleared 852K in pure sales, even though the album was available on Apple Music and Spotify
Views came out right before streaming got popping

The point is doing backflips over your head

Adele doesn’t do much promotion outside of normal album rollouts.
Drake would benefit from physical sales in 2023.
Where’s the lie?

I’ve learned from some of the best!
Drake stans really have brain rot to the point where they believe that pure sales are bad, physical media is a gimmick, and promoting your own music is the wrong thing to do

Ppl were saying slime u out wasn't a single

The mental gymnastics are actually insane
Not to the extent Taylor and others do it today knowing they’ll be able to generate mad income off their crazy stanbases. I mean it’s fair play to them for doing it, I just don’t think it should count as a measure of the music itself.
Us knowing what these guys albums sales is actually the real problem cause why do we care. Whole point should be maximizing the amount they make of an album. Now it seems like they are sacrificing making money to have more physical copies sold
I would hope Drake is the most streamed artist on AM
He's on twice the amount of playlists than any other artist lol
Cope
AM has 25% less US subscribers than Spotify so its better to be the biggest artist on Spotify tbh
But most streams on Spotify aren't US based

Taylor doesn’t drop prices.
“B-but the bundles”
Numbers Would've been less too if he didn't have his meltdown
Ok but the point is if two people drop albums and one outsells the other because they dropped 12 collectible versions, it doesn’t equate to people fw the music more
Billboard should do what hdd does. shows sales for streaming, physical and income made
But most streams on Spotify aren't US based
Ok but I was only mentioning US subscribers
Fr, they refuse to ignore that streaming can be manipulated in just as many ways as pure sales can be
How
U Kno I'm right
She can def do worse than Drake. But ain't no way she singing in Spanish
The point is doing backflips over your head
Sure thing bud
