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
TheGreatAgenda strikes again
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
My projections are 150-200k.

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)

last sentence 😭
What's your prediction?
250kish + - 25k
Drake and fill in Weeknd
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
After seeing those projections, I wonder if Kendrick wouldve did 500k+ fw if he had the physicals ready(and a rollout longer than 30 mins)
Update that title. @thegreatdivine

Done.
Blud thinks Hotline Bling was a cultural moment
Yall try to present yourselves as objective when yall are in fact bias as hell and that’s the issue

Easily
there’s no way $$$4U doesn't at least sell as much as the metro/future collabs did. 225k minimum
also "terrible song" peekaboo back in the top 10 on the not botted platform btw
