Dr Lee PhDThat doesn’t work tho
Kanye is technically “bigger” if you look at his streaming numbers but didn’t crack 200k
Kanye lost 2 days of tracking and was f***ed by BB / Luminate who basically just one shotted Indie d2c sales with their new rules.
He was projected at like 400 with his 1 and a half year long physical pre sales (that didn’t end up really counting)

Even with all that it’s not like he was going to have his biggest debut ever just because his back catalogue streams are high

That's pure sales, not streams
Bully pretty much flopped on streaming
Iceman (as we know right now) isn't gonna have any physicals to boost its pure sales total. And no, I'm not saying it's gonna flop on streaming

They have all the sales info in their notes app, ready to argue at any moment. Keep up.

They don’t, but we can also disagree that he’s doing 600k
You can do both, the brain is complex

no one said his biggest ever? Who expected a middle aged Post nzi kanye to have his biggest ever?
just changed the goal posts. Ye doing what he did with Bully through a (valid) cancellation and Gamma distribution was impressive. His increased streaming numbers and largely popular back catalogue helped that by funneling old fans into his new release

Pure sales have nothing to do with the streams bro

So you admit there’s more context than “streams are super high”
Kanye has more streams than Kendrick and if they both dropped today, Kendrick would sell more

Some of them became obsessed with sales since Kendrick had a lil moment after the beef lol

If there are no physicals, then his pure sales total is gonna be close to zero, the same way it was for his last three studio albums without physicals

@jpg first week sales are made up of streaming units and pure sales figures, which are direct downloads and physical copies
If Iceman has no physical copies, where are the additional pure sales numbers coming from?

you have to be slow? Just showed you how Kanye was supposed to lap GNX by nearly 100k. and still did 2/3rds of its numbers despite being a old man with multiple controversies

He was only projected to do that WITH PHYSICALS, which Kendrick did not have for GNX
GNX would've challenged for 500K with physicals

GNX didn’t do physicals tho

I was using Ye as an example for the situation… obviously Drake is pulling more streams alone compared to a 2026 Ye.
but as always you are just being contrarian and missing the point

U thought Kanye was gon sell 400k in 2026???
