I can believe it tbh the Tyler/Rocky type rappers have strong supportive fanbases. They both kinda grew out of nowhere in a way last few years.

Gotta wait and see if/how many of those sales get filtered by Billboard.

Was it merch boxsets or people actually buying vinyls?

MidzyBillboard readjusted stream weight, yes, but it also inflated free streams by narrowing the gap from 1:3 to 1:2.5. All artists benefit from the adjustment, but we're seeing Drake has benefitted the most from these changes. Take Care and NWTS have literally hit new peaks on Billboard streaming charts.

It's reasonable to assume Drake has a higher free-to-premium stream mix than most top artists. And we all know where there's free streams on Spotify there's 🤖 at play
So, essentially, everyone is botting their US streams and Billboard is allowing that to fly since everyone is benefitting from the recent change? That's an awfully intelligent conclusion you've drawn.

if these numbers hit, will be interesting to see how Cole's vinyl sales do.

that s*** isnt pulling away 100k sales. This is ingenuine hate. A lot of releases have giveaways etc with a chance to win something.
If a 2500 rent giveaway for 10 people can move 100k vinyls worth 5M+, i gotta bridge to sell yall
