    If TGD’s projections hold up. Kendrick in his 12th week would outsell drake’s next first week

    she’s purposely lowballing so she can say Drake outdid her projections

    Man I hope new pnd/drake album is solid vocally

    i hate Rnb albums with lack of good vocals.

    it's drake and pnd

    you're not gonna get great vocals

    you're just gonna get nondescript "vibe" music and you're gonna enjoy it

    I am always up for an actual music discussion, this s*** is fun but some of yall are blinded by fandom.

    The biggest rap peak no matter how many records Kendrick broke on paper during the past year is early 2000s Em and that's because of context.

    Facts, and not just numbers wise but culturally as well: specifically 2000 and 2002

    On top of that, 8 Mile had 51M opening in 2002 for a rated R movie. S*** is equivalent of 100M today.

    Big Poppa - Yes
    Juicy - Yes
    Still D.R.E. - Arguable, but yes
    See You Again - Yes (I would consider this more of a pop song though)
    Not Afraid - Yes
    Lose Yourself - Arguable, leaning no
    Love The Way You Lie - Yes
    Thrift Shop - Yes
    Gold Digger - Arguable, but yes

    🤔

    I feel like it is still to early to really say. So In Da Club and Lose Yourself only two in the way to u?

    This is why just going off the charts without context doesn't make sense.

    Money Trees never charted but rn is the second most streamed Kendrick song in America (NLU will surpass it).

    How big a song is depends on multiple factors.

    Yup.

    Plenty impactful Hip Hop songs that never even cracked the top 20 on the Hip Hop/R&B chart (like DMX - Ruff Ryder's Anthem before he died)

    120K would be an utter flop if Drake’s billed as a lead artist. Only way that would fly is if it’s billed as a PARTYNEXTDOOR solo record
