Drake's bloated 21-track album aimed at gaming the streaming system to move 250K first week

[semicko82]

Not bad
Drake is always a first week guy, but it's the second week that tells the story

@Nuuko kenny bot attack heavy on the first page. those numbers arent terrible, thought that sub 200k was a possibility based on the hot 100 projections.

drake definitely isnt the top dog anymore, but he isnt dead either.

Decent no hype behind pnd in 2025. Honestly expected less

Look at how many tracks he dropped lol... make him drop a regular album and he drops to 170k

21 track album should be doing way more. 2nd week will tell the full story

 

[Silkk]

Drake only having one song in the top 10 off a new album is the more telling sign

I was expecting less than 200k how tf are projections at 250k? I thought the stream numbers were low


Edit: At least the coli will have a new topic of discussion till the solo drops. Drake haters gona say hes done and drake riders gona say its a collab project with pnd, so 250k is good. And if it hits 250k, either side could be right, so thecoli gonna be discussing this for the year

Blackballed by the industry, suppressed by DSPs, no single, no video out, $0 spent(two IG posts) on promo 250k is a win to me.


Drake the only artist that can pull 200k plus on 3 different Genres with no gimmicks.

They are low, but there's 21 tracks so it gives him additional streams. You get sales per song being streamed.

If all of those songs were just Drake this stance would hold up more.

$0 spent on promo?
He was promoting his album everywhere, even live with the most popular streamers

 

[Morethan1]

They started promoting a week or 2 before release.

Not bad

 

[FS4LFE]

I see the shade in the title lol

 

[Not Crodie]

These would have been acceptable number for 14-16 songs... a 21 track album should have done 350K.

What goes up must come down
