Not all the Weeknd songs were from the new album. Starboy, Blinding Lights were present too in these stats. No FATD and CLB song has that staying power

Yeah no surprise, Drake hasn't dropped pop music in about 8 years

instead his streams are spread across his whole discog

Honestly nevermind on its 3rd day had 3 songs outstreaming $$$4u's top song (Gimme a hug, US ONLY)

Honestly nevermind has more streams each track than this album.... looking like just the pure ammount of tracks might push this over that total stream numbers

Ur gonna have a field day when these numbers are posted later aren't you?

Any Drake fan should want these numbers to be as low as possible

honestly nevermind lowest streamed track on day 3 in US: 390k

$$$4u lowest streamed track: 290K

not good!

Ive been saying in here for almost a year that Drake losing his numbers would be the greatest thing to ever happen to Drake's music

Hope he comes out with rap solo full of bangers!

Still thinking this should get over 300k with Apple Music and physical performance

$$$4u day 3 Global: 1 song in top 50 global

$$$4u Day 3 US: 6 songs in top 50. lowest being 49

GNX day 3 Global: Entire album in top 50 and lowest ranked song is 41

GNX Day 3 US: Takes up entire 1-10. Other 2 tracks are 13 and 14

IFPI includes the US, so it’s pretty obvious that if you exclude the US, Abel is bigger because of Drake’s insane US sales performance.

THANK YOU FOR SAYING THIS. I HAVE BEEN SAYING THESE EXACT WORDS FOR A YEAR AND THEY ACT LIKE I AM SPEAKING A DIFFERENT LANGUAGE. YOU GET IT

Physicals sold out very fast like they always do, which leads me to believe they only stocked a very low amount, under 50k

Breaking news my nigga, Global includes the USA!

They didnt sell out. it was a glitch on the website when it first popped up to cause them all to look sold out cause they didnt add any to the shopify inventory

Then they added it.
They are still available

The Weeknd has 7 non-HUT songs currently doing over a million daily streams on Spotify (as the lead artist). Drake has ONE.

Yes but the US is a huge country and Drake is a bigger artist than The Weeknd here. On an INTERNATIONAL LEVEL, The Weeknd is bigger and it’s not even close

imagine trying to tell someone in real life that global/internatonal doesn't include the US

Bonus stat:

the lowest streamed track on GNX (GNX) had more streams on day 3 than the highest streamed track on $$$4u had in the USA

1.38M vs 1.01M

Keep going

usually monday has a boost in streams and this album most likely will not

Dog you know exactly what the f*** I mean stop being dense.

In film, there is a DOMESTIC box office and an INTERNATIONAL box office. The GLOBAL box office includes the US, the INTERNATIONAL box office does not.

The Weeknd is bigger on an INTERNATIONAL level than Drake is

GNX on day 3 had more streams than $$$4u day 2 and 3 combined did (with 7 less tracks may i add)

Global does international doesn’t I think

THANK YOU

Wild how those are two different things in the entertainment industry and it isn’t semantics. Type record and song of the year
