    damn would not be 430-440 million 🤣

    It probably would if you adjust for inflation like he said. Damn had the same hype as mr morale but it was much more replay able to the average listener

    Donda outsold Kendrick

    He is a great musician, also he was creating hype with Instagram posts like he does every roll out.

    The music just wasn't good. Simple as that.

    The messiah of music will be back this year or next, and then you drake stans will see

    Nah he’s above what I would call lowest common denominator music.

    Lowest common denominator music is s*** like Jack Harlow, HER, or bland mall core h&m type pop music

    He’s pretty much there. And I used to be a Drake stan myself. But he’s spent the last 5-6 years with one good rap song to every 10 pop meme songs

    That’s 1 stream for every person in the United States wow

    Congrats to Kendrick for these amazing sales and even more for dropping another amazing album.

    To be fair though Kendrick dropped a super mainstream single + video beforehand plus did Coachella immediately after

    Y’all are right that he’s not far off from that bracket but the thing that saves him is between all the mid he can give you about 12 really good songs per album with maybe 3 being great

    He’s pretty much there. And I used to be a Drake stan myself. But he’s spent the last 5-6 years with one good rap song to every 10 pop meme songs

    He has tracks like N2Deep, Champagne Poetry and Pipe Down on the same album as meme tracks like Way 2 Sexy and Girls Want Girls tho

    So he more than capable to drop a great album still. He just chases records and numbers while he still can. Cant blame em for that with stans who prob would stop f***ing with him if he doesnt put up such huge numbers
