Idk what you’re trying to say here but I agree Kendrick would NOT push 150k bundles. He don’t got fans like that. Tyler does. Props to him he earned that s***

But you’re stiring a narrative Chromakopia performing better streaming than GNX. It is performing amazing and you are celebrating that but fail to acknowledge GNX right now is performing better than that did stream wise.

Can't say I remember that

Gonna be real. Let’s say a scenario Drake did bundles. I don’t even think he could hit that 150k number Tyler did s***s genuinely impressive

I remember it I felt genuinely bad. No mockery

Drake gon expose his self but he be faded so

So you'd rather have Kendrick release bundles to sell around 450k, so Kendrick stans can clown Drake stans for eternity? Because in the end nobody cares if its done with bundles or not, if you can create a narrative it will get pushed

CRINE

This is my point:
Tyler has elevated with every album, both critically and commercially. There was a time when that was Kendrick. Chromakopia is Tyler's best performing album yet and he didn't even release it the right way to get the best debut week. Meaning that his next album might even be bigger because he has a rabid fanbase that might move 200-250k pure sales for him first week.

Like you agreed, Kendrick ain't doing that. As for the streaming end of things, this is Kendrick's third album to debut with less than 350M US streams. That's clearly his ceiling. All in all, it's not a bad ceiling but he isn't getting any bigger commercially as an artist, is what I'm saying.

291k is a sweet spot for endless arguments lol.

is it though? its performing almost identically in the US Last time i looked

this is a big reason drake's numbers are down in the last few years imo, he doesn't drop anywhere near as much "pop" or even "pop rap" as he used to

its almost identical in the US

people have been saying this since 2018 lmaooo

ever since 2017/2018

Drake's apparently gonna sell less than normal next album
Kendrick's gonna sell more than normal next album

#1 kinda became true finally with FATD, after 6 years
#2 has never become true lol

there's literally posts from you this summer in this thread saying those Trav numbers are all legitimate bro

incredible numbers which are also hit by Tyler the creator, without all the industry sucking his cock like they have for Kendrick

makes no sense

you either admit these are meh numbers, or admit that having a huge hit like NLU/winning beef did nothing for Kendrick's career

These are double Tyler’s streaming numbers Tyler had 142k pure sales. This is a streaming only release. Y’all just keep recycling the same false narrative over and over.

Also kendrick is about to take over the top 10 while tyler barely got 1

not double. He outstreamed him by 125M streams but Tyler only had 4 days of tracking…

I hate to give into the spreadsheet stereotype but since @fader and @Kr0niic are accusing me of lying about Chromakopia out streaming GNX so here's both of their Spotify numbers as proof.

Oh dear

Spreadsheets

if there’s one time that he needs to do an actual rollout it’s this time

but who knows what the label will do for him now lol

With all this number talk can someone explain why Taylor swift’s last album had a 80% drop and no one cared?

she 100% cooked her streaming numbers

nearly 900M streams first week without a smash hit? the autoplays must’ve went crazy

U da goat
