FreightStreams per track decreases with the number of tracks though. A 12 song album like Off-Season can pull in 27m per song. Cole wouldn't come close to that with a 25 song album like Scorpion
People who click play on a Cole album are usually gonna listen to it all the way through so there wouldn’t be a huge drop off. He’s an album artist. There’s a reason every single song on his projects gets certified.
Cole can make a skit, intro, or interlude go platinum

NewCopeJustDroppedThe day before or might’ve been two days before and it had physicals ready and pressed ready to go
https://twitter.com/PincheChewster/status/852602751129337857I think Kendrick can do the same with his new record
Oh im talking about multi week leaks, but yeah, we'll see

Based on it's first day Spotify/Apple Music performance and with the charts being really week right now, It's Almost Dry might debut at #1 on the Billboard 200.
I called it.

Oblivion XEasily 400k is a big stretch, 450 is like the max possible for him
And physicals/merch are not possible
Physicals and merch are possible if they ship first week.
He’s doing 400-500K easily

The chance physicals come first week is extremely low especially with no pre order available and they would already have to be in preparation which I doubt cause no one knew bout the album till this week

Yes, the public didn’t know about the album. That doesn’t mean they haven’t had the release planned out for weeks in advance.
Kendrick has always moved very carefully and calculated and he’s always had physicals ready to go at release

How long is the shipping process for a big release on average?

We DON’T KNOW that yet. Are any of us here in Kendrick’s team? No.
We don’t know if physicals will be available at release until the week of release lmao, what is so hard to understand about that?
Given Kendrick’s history, I’m betting that there will be physicals available first week because that’s how he’s always operated.
Yes, the album was announced a few days ago (to the public), but that doesn’t mean the release wasn’t being planned behind the scenes for months in advance.
No one here is on Kendrick’s team, let’s stop acting like we are lmao. We don’t know until the album releases

We will know in the coming weeks. My guess whenever the single goes so will a preorder link.

It depends on the artist and the team.
Some artists release pre-orders for physicals that are available to ship week of release (as Harry and Tyler did recently), and some release merch/physicals when the album drops that won’t ship until a few weeks or months after the release date (as Pusha just did).
We won’t know until the week before or week of May 13 to see which route Kendrick is doing with this release.

Thank you for having common sense. People ITT acting like it’s a foregone conclusion that there won’t be physicals week of release lmao like we don’t know that yet.

It's a different era, kendrick albums have all leaked cause of physicals that didn't even have to be shipped first week. It's just not likely is all people are saying lol
But we'll see

Interscope’s Kendrick Lamar has created mondo anticipation for his new set, which will be his final release via TDE. The forecast is in the vicinity of 350k. Kendrick’s 2017 set DAMN. bowed with 603k, more than half of that from sales. (It’s reached 11m ATD worldwide.) His forthcoming release will almost certainly spur an equally intense level of consumption but overwhelmingly on the DSPs.
With streaming the dominant consumption platform and sales generally not the same huge factor they once were, the biz has had to readjust its conception of what a huge first-week number is. When bundling was permitted and pure album sales were meaningful, the numbers were significantly bigger. Meanwhile, the streaming pie has grown.
Case in point: Jeffrey Azoff-repped Harry Styles, whose Coachella performances provided a fresh reminder of his electrifying presence, will drop his new Columbia album on 5/20 in the wake of a smash single that remains one of the world’s top-streaming songs as of this writing.
The forecast for new set Harry’s House, which will have vinyl day and date, is 350k. His giant Fine Line debuted with 478k in 2019 and has amassed 9m ATD worldwide.
Add to this suddenly hectic release schedule albums by Epic’s Future (4/29), whose 2020 set High Off Life bowed at #1 with 153k and has done 1.8 ATD, and the meteoric, Chris Thomas/Range Media Partners-managed Jack Harlow (5/6).
We could also see the new album from Dre London-managed, Theo Sedlmayr-repped Post Malone, now moving to the new Republic-affiliated Mercury imprint co-headed by Tyler Arnold (who played a major role in Post’s signing) and Ben Adelson. Word has it that there was a protracted negotiation around Post’s new record.
K-pop giants BTS, newly partnered with Geffen, will ignite their stans with a 6/10 album.
Add it all up and you understand why it seems like the year just woke up after spending several months curled up in front of Disney+.
