    Switch Drake with Travis for the big 3 I'm afraid.

    Kicking Drake out the big 3 is hilarious lmaoo

  • It's crazy the projections ain't even bad and the usual suspects coming out the woodwork to push a narrative already

    I hope yall don't double the thread page count again over these numbers s*** was sad to watch last time especially yall entire Father's Day

    Drake is his own worse enemy here. Just do physicals, you bum.

    Taylor learned years ago. In the opposite direction though. She used to FIGHT streaming, then she embraced it and did a milli FW again.

    Drake could have done a milli with Scorpion if he did physicals. That's common knowledge.

    The real big three is Big T, Benito, and Scott if we're being honest

    Fourth man is G Wagon Wallen.

    She gon do a mili with 1989 TV so so soon

  • The only other artists who did 420k not including her bundles was Taylor's Midnights. Wild if you think about it these are the last 2 megastars and they can't crack 500k...

    Is it really gimmicks anymore though? Nowadays she’s just dropping variant covers of physical editions of her albums, artists have been doing that for decades. There’s nothing wrong with that at all.

    Keep in mind I can’t stand Taylor’s music so this isn’t me defending her as a fan

    its interesting ur not calling that an inaccurate measurement of consumption tho, whilst calling streaming inaccurate

    Adele literally releases her music and disappears off the face of the planet.

    Physicals are not a “gimmick”, I don’t get how we’ve reached a point where art is being seen as a digital commodity only. That’s ridiculous.

    Vinyls are a gimmick tho

    Unless you seriously think there's 300k people getting their vinyl player out every week to listen to Utopia... or even 10% of that

    I think if I went to a mates house and he pulled his vinyl player out to listen to a recent album I'd laugh at him and ask what's wrong w him

    Streaming can be manipulated, and it’s inaccurate in that: the number to designate one “sale” is a totally made up figure, paid streams are worth more than free streams, and it creates an endless amount of “sales” because every time you play an album enough times it’s an additional sale.

    Pure sales can definitely be manipulated/incentivized as well, but a sale is a sale is a sale. You can’t fake a transaction.
