I feel like this album is gonna be Drake worst first week. PND isn’t bringing any interest, this isn’t Rap, his own label beefing with him….
Also while the release date makes sense to an extent, it is still bad timing. Kendrick’s SuperBowl boost will be the week before AND he’s releasing physicals that week. It could build into a high sales week for the following week too….
If GNX blocks it then all hell will break loose
Who cares about R&B collab album first week
I don't even think you are a Drake fan anymore because all you've done the past couple years is s*** on every single thing he does and call him stupid.
In case you haven't noticed, Drake can't do anything to distance himself from Kendrick for the foreseeable future. He announced an Australian tour and they said he's running away to avoid the Super Bowl Halftime Show. He wasn't at the Grammys last night and they made the entire show about s***ting on him. Don't you get it? What's stopping Kendrick from waiting till whenever Drake decides to drop this album in the year to drop his deluxe and step on it?
Why are you here complaining about s*** that we don't even know for sure will happen yet? Why are you letting yourself be more bothered about this than Drake himself? Who gives a f***? Christ, man. I don't know what else you want me to say.
According to you, Drake is a f***ing idiot who can't do anything right then maybe you need to go be a fan of someone who moves as smartly as you'd like, I don't know, man.
His career navigations the past couple of years have indeed been s***ty (hence the current standings). So bringing up my critiquing isn’t really doing anything other than showing I’m at least honest and not delusional lmao.
But if you don’t see how blatantly stupid it is that he probably shouldn’t release THAT particular week and bring on 5x more unnecessary comparisons while trying to move forward then ok. There’s nothing else to discuss.
I wonder what the pure sales total will be. Probably between 150K and 200K if I had to guess

Calling him stupid and insisting every single thing he does is stupid isn't a critique. That's just you being upset that he isn't moving how you'd like him to move and making yourself more bothered about the career of a stranger than that stranger is for themselves.
Again, the date of the album release is set. If it dropped in April or May or June, people would still bring up Kendrick and there's nothing to suggest that him dropping months from now will see the album perform better or be received better.
We all have our critiques of Drake and how he moves but after 2024, I couldn't give a f*** about anyone who wants to insert Kendrick into anything Drake does anymore. They're doing that already without Drake moving a muscle. If you can't see and acknowledge that then I don't know.
The rest of us will be bumping the album on the 14th. Hopefully, you do the same. Enjoy the rest of your day.
You called me a mad woman for projecting a 400k+ debut
Good to see I have more faith in Abel than his most devoted fans
It’s not faith, you just gave a number you know he wouldn’t reach so you could call it a flop in peace. Please don’t do that lmfao, just be upfront about your opinions. You’re fooling no one.
Nice. Very close to my 400k prediction
You called me a mad woman for projecting a 400k+ debut
It’s still not projected to clear that though. If it does, it’ll be an overperformance
Your own words: “if it doesn’t clear 400K, then it underperformed”

No. I listed out valid reasons why he should have no issue reaching those numbers. It's not my fault if you didn't read those posts.

That’s what i’m wondering too. I feel like he must have done insane pure numbers
He had too many things done properly this time around for it not to at least come close.

It’s one thing if you predicted that, cool
But you specifically said that if it DOES NOT reach 400K+, then it underperformed.
He is currently on pace to finish 50K below that, that’s why I said using 400K as a baseline was illogical and unrealistic
