Kendrick only doing stadiums with SZA is interesting tbh, kinda takes away from the whole doing stadiums if you're having to do it with another superstar

smart though

It’s just pointless to see it peak every year the same exact month. It’s Christmas time, we all know everyone is playing Christmas music, we don’t have to be reminded every single year

You always find a way don’t you

There's always an angle

He not bigger than The Weeknd?

yeah this is gonna be one of those albums that'll still be getting like 4m daily streams 3 years from now

Lol come off it, if Drake announced a stadium tour with Nicki and Wayne you'd be the first to say it doesn't count as much as if he did it with a bum like Smiley.

only?

they announced the tour, its a collab tour with both of them together

Doing a stadium tour at all is impressive

And I’ve said FOR YEARS that Drake is obviously capable of doing stadiums popularity wise, it’s his team being too logistically inept to ever get it done

meh idk

Weeknd's stadium tour is far more impressive than an imaginary Drake/Nicki/Wayne stadium tour for me

If this is what it took for you to give Weeknd some credit, I’ll allow it

I wonder if the finances are just garbage with collab tours cause I'm pretty sure Ari/Billie together could do stadiums

He should know the play
He does the same s*** when it comes to drake

lol you gonna have him malfunctioning by admitting weeknd is big.

It seems Kendrick's team don't think they're as big as The Weeknd

which is actually surprising to me

My brother, they aren’t

Weeknd was the 2nd most streamed artist on Spotify this year without an album out in 3 years, and he was 2nd only to Taylor Swift

That nigga is outta here.

Kendrick may be the biggest rapper right now, but he’s still nowhere near the huge pop acts

That Pop bag is different

He isn't, only non legacy male artist bigger than Weekend in last decade when it comes to touring is Bad Bunny few years ago.

harry too tbh but still

Yeah him too tbh, he had a run. He did like 6 nights in my city on his last tour.

Globally weeknd is probably bigger? but US? hell nah man, this Kendrick tour should break Drake's record with absolute ease

It most likely won’t. They’re only doing 21 shows. Unless the tickets are egregiously expensive, they’re not doing $320M+

And nah Weeknd is bigger in the US too. He did 20 stadium dates all by himself.

Just had a queue of 300K for his One Night Only show at the Rose Bowl in January as well

Weeknd last arena tour (starboy 2017) did $59m from 53 shows
kendrick last arena tour (big steppers 2022) did $69m from 40 shows

i really refuse to believe that there isn't more demand for a Kendrick tour than a Weeknd tour in the US

pre covid and post covid touring has drastically changed.

Yeah because that’s pre Covid vs. post Covid

And also 2022 Kendrick is a bigger artist than 2017 Weeknd

2022 Kendrick was Kendrick’s first tour in five years
