jynthnah he does have hardcore stans. views cleared 800k physical and all the fatd merch sold out in like 5 minutes
Drake’s cult of personality is bigger than basically every pop artist not named taylor, he just hasn’t given the fans a real chance to show it in a long ass time
Views cleared 800K physical because it was released right at the time when the physical/iTunes era was on the way out and streaming was on the way in. Since that album his pure sales first week numbers have trended downward and downward with each release.
His primary fanbase is on streaming.
Also, all of their merch releases on DrakeRelated are extremely limited, that’s why most products sell out so quickly on there

Make no mistake about it bro. If Drake was shameless enough to play the game like these soccer mom pop stars like Abel he could easily have done nocta bundles. 20 dollar nocta durags and other items would have the Drizzyman selling 1.5 million a week

he gets most of his sales from streaming yes, but there’s definitely a massive chunk of fans that’ll drop money on vinyls, CDs, bundles etc with his name on it. niggas bought a book of ig captions cuz his name was on it
contrary to popular belief his fans aren’t all NPCs lmao Aubrey’s Angels were damn near the beige beyhive at one point

There’s not a 1.2 million sized chunk of Drake fans that are buying a physical Drake album day of release. That’s not his fanbase at this point in time

I never said he’d do 1m+
I said he would’ve done over 700k with fatd if he pushed physical sales and promo overall. that’s just 300k more than what he did, not unrealistic at all for drake

Even 300K+ in physical for Drake in 2023 is stretching it a bit. I think it would be an extra 200K max for him

He does lol. Y’all get the internet confused with real life. Drake has a rabid fanbase. They just aren’t the type to get on sites like ktt and he’s not the type to try and get his fanbase to buy keychains, wood statues and 5 of the same CD with different colors.
You’d think a site like this would appreciate an artist who keeps it about the art 100%. The games that Taylor and weeknd play devalue the art

physical copies took olivia’s numbers from rod wave territory to the 2nd highest first week of 2023 at the time (302k copies first week, 150k of them being physical) and drake is unfathomably bigger than that
this is why I wish drake wasn’t so lazy w/ the promo these days. he’s a legit MEGASTAR, he just doesn’t care to act like one. he’s a sales beast
the fact he sells so much without trying is proof that he can shut s*** down if he put in some effort

I respect it a lot tbh. He just drops the music and that’s it. The fans just giving him the time of day is all that he seems to really care about from the outside looking in. He might throw some merch on a site but doesn’t care enough to try and count it as album sales.
Nothing wrong with merch or bundles either but I don’t like when people pretend like people buying a t shirt is equivalent to people actually listening to the album

it’s a massive flex and he knows it. but just for the sake of hypothetical, I’d love to see him play the numbers game just one more time. the tears from pop stans and anti-hiphop industry execs would be amazing to watch

He rapped too many lines dismissing physicals for him to cave. Now he's gotta sit there and continue getting outsold by Travis

He just had a 1,000$ jacket sell out in 2 hours. Most of Drakerelated drops aren’t limited and have hundreds of thousands of stock. Nocta is doing great. OVO still has stores worldwide doing great with new drops every week. You greatly underestimate how much drake can sell. He can easily sell twice as much merch as trav bc drake goes beyond the kids fashion scene lol. Everyone knows who drake is. My dad bought the 500$ clb heart jacket 😭. And his good friend buys every drop. They’re 45 years old bro and HATE “autotune trav”

fatdele was appealing to older folks who are more likely to buy albums, when younger people are transitioning to streaming. now that album sales are completely dead, fatdele cant even chart her latest album for 1 full year cus aint nobody streaming her for s***.

I always thought bundles were funny for artist like trav anyway lol. Because where is Utopia now? One song on apple music top 100? But he sold all of these fake records so it made it seem like such a album of the decade release
