    I’m not placing any bets. Btw GNX sold 325k so Drake doesnt have to sell 400k to beat GNX...330k wouldbe enough. We’ll see.

    If you’re not willing to stick behind your prediction i’ll take it as it being in bad faith then lol. I don’t see it doing more than GNX, I’d be willing to place a mute bet on that

    They’re wasting their money lol.
    Only 1 digital copy counts per customer + they have to actually download the copy too. That’s why you see artists sell multiple versions so 1 fan can actually buy multiple copies and have it count

    Divine is doing the opposite predicting 100K

    This is a PARTYNEXTDOOR/Drake album. Anybody projecting more than 200k is being delusional and even that is a reach imo.

    this drake and PND album won’t do much better than honestly nevermind, im guessing ~230k at the most. I don’t know why anyone thinks it would do over 400k. an rnb album only appeals to one half of drake’s audience especially an rnb album that’s a collab album on top of that.

    only way i see it selling over 300k is if there is a kendrick diss on it or something

    No way this doing 100k lmfao. 180-250 is most likely. But then again who knows how many tracks we’re getting.. and how much is PND vs how much is Drake. We’ll see.

    If this is more PND heavy than Drake heavy then expect 50-100k first week, buddy.

    Ok now I get your strategy based off the 150k first week prediction I saw. You are underselling the album to act surprised when it does 300k+

    My prediction won’t be far off if the album has either off these or even better combined:

    • A rap hit, better multiple rap bangers
    • A song which is aimed at Kendrick (just a song alluding to the beef and Kendrick, doesnt need to be a diss track at all)

    Not really. I just know that R&B Drake songs are his worst-performing songs.

    lets not forget HNVM did 204k a surprise EDM album lmao, 250-300k for a decently promoted album with multiple snippets and posts about it is a good ball park range

    That was a solo Drake album and it had 2 rap songs that carried almost 50% of its total streams lmao.

    They make excuses for you (Drake) cause they hate to see me lit (Kendrick)

    Gods plan and in my feelings weren’t cultural moments LMFAO you guys got it man

    Gods Plan no.

    In my Feelings is more accurate.

    Divine is definitely lowballing on purpose so she can act surprised when it does 200K+. Drake is on the album, and already said it’s not ALL R&B, so it’s very likely it will stream well. 100K is a joke for a Drake project

    I've already said I see it doing 150-200k. Don't worry, this will all make sense when the first-rate Spotify numbers come in.

    150k is more realistic than 500k if we keeping it a stack
    I’m expecting 200k-275k. 500k is ridiculous lol

    I agree. But 100K also seems ridiculous to me, 175K would be the bare minimum

    I dont think having to download it is a confirmed rule. People just do it just in case.

    Why is anyone expecting the PND/Drake album to outsell GNX when Drake is no longer the #1 guy in rap? Save those lofty expectations for Kendrick, please.

    I believe that’s always been rule. Regardless, it doesn’t even matter since only 1 copy per customer counts. It’s cringe seeing some of these folks spend $50 on digital copies, knowing that only 1 of them will count

    She said 100-150k. 100k is way too low I agree. 150k is low too but not totally outrageous imo. Let’s see how many tracks get confirmed too as that’ll play a huge part in this as well

    FATD’s top song got 321 points. Luther would have to hold to get number 1. Unsure if it will.

    This is exactly why #1 is very subjective. When NLU came out, chart was at all time strongest with multiple songs over 500 for weeks and weeks.

    Any one of those songs could have had a long run in almost any other time frame.

    Drake is using the exact same marketing he’s used for his last three albums: Instagram posts and hyping it up at concerts

    Drake’s fanbase is well aware that the album is releasing tomorrow night, I don’t see how PARTYNEXTDOOR being the first artist listed would deter most of Drake’s fans from tuning in at least once

    How many excuses you gonna come up with? This the 7th excuse in just 2 days and the album isn't even out yet.
