he definitely put his thumb on the scale
Idk but I imagine tons of artists especially underground pay for promo/plays
It's not rly cheating it's just marketing
his album aint sell 500k fw 💀💀 it did 25k
French said it has already sold 500k first week which was true but that was due to the streams of old songs counting (for RIAA not for Top 200)
Didn't 69 get accused of using bots or something
those youtube numbers def sus
Internet money Bots every artist they sign’s views
I swear that fat white guy who runs it used to have a YouTube channel saying when he sets his label up he'll bot until he makes it
or was that a different label I can't remember
labels use stream farms and hackers all the time. especially when you're signed to someone like Diddy, all bets are off. nobody's gonna come out and say it obviously but its part of the game tbh. Alicia Keys even said recently that the music industry is built around creating an illusion.
Really makes you reconsider using streams as a parameter of judging artistic merit.

nigerian artists have the best fans in music i swear
french montana with his album that sold like 500k fw with 2016 songs
never happened. it did 25K first week.
an albums pre release singles count towards it's RIAA certification, but the actual first week numbers (counted by Billboard) only include units in the first week - 25K
French said it has already sold 500k first week which was true but that was due to the streams of old songs counting (for RIAA not for Top 200)
yeah. first week is counted by Billboard, not RIAA. it did 25K first week - french just reachin
