He’s dropped two albums in the streaming era and neither of them went #1

He has 3 solo albums and they're ALL massive albums with huge hits. At least, he never lost the #1 spot to Gunna. Can't say the same about some other people.

Idk what ur point is, its already proven by their last albums that tyler + weeknd stream similarly

Losing the #1 spot to Metallica in 2016 is much more respectable

No they don’t

Y’all got me in here sounding like a hater to two artists I LOVE (Tyler and Bruno)

What did The Weeknd do to some of y’all?

Can someone name me the smash hits off Kiss Land and Dawn FM? I'm tryna see something.

Y’all niggas are miserable

Bruno has three albums and one collab album

Even if you wanna say Kiss Land and Dawn FM don’t have any smash hits (which is fair, they don’t), that still leaves three Weeknd albums and one EP with absolute smash hit records on them, I don’t understand what the criticism is lmao

Both have four projects with smash hit records

A random date earlier this year when neither of them had new singles out:

Huh? dawn fm outstreamed thingy by 20m lol. that's nothing, only 11% extra

This isnt exactly that crazy when Bruno has like 50 songs in his discog lol

Bruno is definitely bigger than The Weeknd idk what ur tryna argue here, he's simply much better at making actual hits

Do albums stop existing after the first week?

“He’s simply much better at making actual hits”

The Weeknd has the most songs with a billion streams ever and is also tied for second with the most Diamond songs ever

Bro I LOVE Bruno Mars, I literally grew up with his music and he was one of my favorite artists when I was younger. I’m super excited for his new album, and he is a MEGASTAR.

But y’all don’t have to put down another megastar just to prop him up.

Both The Weeknd and Bruno Mars are global icons and are probably the two best male popstars of their generation

Weeknd also has like 4x the music of Bruno lol, so that's just an irrelevant stat in this case. Bruno has an otherworldly ability to make hits, unlike everyone else

Having the most songs with a billion streams and the second-most Diamond songs ever is an irrelevant stat?

I’m fully convinced The Weeknd came to some of y’all homes and personally disrespected you there’s just no way

I’ve been wondering if ktt considers Bruno and Rihanna superstars since all of their albums had low first week sales 🤔

They think Weeknd isn’t a superstar because he had one album that didn’t go #1, meanwhile Bruno has literally one #1 album in his entire career

Make it make sense

when you're trying to use it to prove they're bigger than an artist who barely drops music, yes lol

well the problem is there isn’t a universal definition of what a musical superstar is

i think bruno was definitely one. weeknd used to be one too

Can't wait till The Weeknd surpasses 25 trillion monthly listeners in Spotify next month while not being able to get a single that peaks at #1 on Spotify Global.

U niggas bored as f***

This is gonna be seen as hate but the fact Weeknd hasnt announced his release date shows he's worried right? He's probably gonna announce it last minute cause he doesn't to get #2;d again

singles aren't doing his norm either so that's probably part of it too
