    My Turn/Dangerous/CLB were never carried by hit singles and they're 3 of the best-perforning albums released this decade.

    my turn had We Paid when the deluxe dropped and i think it’s part of the reason why the album kinda caught a second wind and went on to be a mega smash

    It was released 13 months before CLB dropped and it's not a part of CLB.

    I agree w/ this. The songs don't necessarily need to be hot 100 hits but people just have to keep coming back to them.

    They keep the album in the view of the public enough to expose it to more people.

    Like Get Into It Yuh was for Doja's album in between singles.

    The 1500 was originally based on how much money they get from streams.

    1500 x .006 = $9

    the 1250 paid and 3750 free was more accurate in terms of consumption.

    We Paid wasn't a hit single on the charts, though. It peaked at #10 for one week. That's it.

    The longevity of My Turn can't be linked to just one or two songs. Several songs off the album have been regularly streamed since the album dropped and that's the case till today.

    None of those appear on CLB so I don't get your point.

    They weren't chart hits. They're all songs that have gained streams over time, which is my point.

    That's not exactly true. Multiple songs added to the album gave it a boost plus one song that wasn't a mega hit can't boost an entire album for 18 months and running.

    Hot 100 and BB200 are becoming more seperate imo.

    I think when they increased the radio percentage, only certain types of singles stick. Some songs can be bigger on streams w/o showing up on the hot 100.

  • Jun 4, 2022

    None of the songs you listed are mega hits capable of carrying an entire album, which is my point. Way 2 Sexy/Girls Want Girls are the only 2 singles Drake pushed off CLB and he pushed them as singles in September 2021. He hasn't pushed a song since then so there haven't been any songs making the rounds on radio attracting listeners to stream the album more. People just kept going back to the album post-release and they haven't stopped.

    9 weeks and 5 weeks in the top 10 respectively but Knife Talk did the 5 weeks with 0 radio/without push as single. Still, neither were smash hit singles.
