Bro lapped him with his worst album ever

Can't believe we've got a guy in here saying Weeknd is bigger than Drake in canada

when you can take
#2 (bieber, justice, 2.8m)
#3
#4
#5
from Canada's first day spotify numbers & combine em and they still aren't higher than Drake's

Starboy outstreaming every drake album … AH too, as all the weeknd’s other albums will over time. Reason : the weeknd his music ages like fine wine gets better over time .. we can’t say the same for drake

100% organic numbers.

After Hours (released March 2020): 158 weeks charting on the Billboard 200.
Certified Lover Boy (released September 2021): 158 weeks charting on the Billboard 200.

It’s almost like CLB has 7 more songs

After Hours literally got one of the biggest songs ever

I mean its like 5x bigger globally.

Don‘t even argue with them

Weeknd‘s label pretty much f***ed up the sales for his projects because of the compilation album, a lot of the sales were counting towards The Highlights

Save Your Tears was also a massive hit.

this is insane cope

This literally isn't cope tho

AH wasn't in the TOP 200 for weeks/months because of The Highlights lol

Yeah and his label did that because he was being outsold by Lil Baby and Pop Smoke of all people lol, so they gave up

the weeknd has never sold crazy amounts of albums in the US at least

CLB has 3 more songs, AH has a deluxe

it doesn't work that way at all anyway. Sour has more streams than AH whilst having a lot less tracks

I will never understand why they released Dawn FM in f***ing January

I saw this coming actually because Gunna had massive momentum at that time

this guy is obsessed with Dawn FM debuting at #2

who caresss

the weeknd prob did tbh, this guy's always posting the weirdest stats to his IG to try prove something

haven't seen any other superstar as chart obsessed as him recently tbh

yeah releasing Dawn FM in jan was stupid as hell but I was talking about AH, i honestly think they released the highlights because AH was struggling on the charts in the US

releasing a greatest hits album whilst you're at ur peak popularity is so f***ing weird to me

"AH was struggling on the charts in the US"

July 2021

in the top 10 over a year after its release and months after The Highlights was released

Yeah makes no sense why they released The Highlights

nice cherrypick lmao

November 2020 (8 months after release) it was #24 on the charts. They released the greatest highlights 2 months later

In 2020 it was outsold by Pop Smoke's album and destroyed by Lil Baby's album
so yes, it was struggling considering his size as an artist

Well, maybe if you go to school & learn to read you'll start being able to understand factual information?

#24 on the charts is struggling, stop coping

I don't even think AH is a top 10 album of the last 5 years in the US in terms of long term sales but you have people on here saying it didn't struggle

SZA is smaller than The Weeknd yet SOS had waaaay more success than AH
