Just listened to it for the first time. This shyt goes
Beat can get radio/club play too.
Kendrick will definitely be successful. He won't do Drake numbers cause Drake is pop.
But upwards of a 400k first week isn't out of expectation.
And of course he'll go platinum.

Kendrick has the pop appeal too. He has exposure from songs with Taylor Swift and Maroon 5 (pop = popular) He also has a strong fanbase. Kendrick also has push from every major outlet too.
If he releases physicals he could sell more than Drake first week I think. (Drake was digital only)
Also, Kendrick sells more albums than a lot of actual "pop" artists. He sells more than Rihanna usually does for example.
Hip Hop is popular culture.

Kendrick is pop level popular. He sells more albums than most pop acts.
Kendrick also has pop appeal. Why do nikkas like to act like he is just listened to by 100% hip hop heads?

Taylor swift is a Kendrick collaborator. She's a pop arrists that doesn't make her a typical pop fan.
Kendrick gets a lot of exposure from coloborating with white acts. That doesn't mean many of those people actually sat through TPAB. People that are actually LISTENING to his music, and not a single are Hip Hop fans.
No pop fan is really trying to hear TPAB or untitled unmastered.
When the streams are calculated what's going to matter is people actually listening to his whole album. If you look at the charts, the MASSES are listening to the whole more life. The masses won't be listening to Kendrick album cuts like that.

Hip Hop is Counter Culture.
The genre has attained massive popularity but The culture of hip hop has nothing to do with Popularity.
It has to do with expression through various forms of Art. Hip Hop has influenced Pop culture. Hip hop is not pop culture.

Nonsense. You're talking relative to Drake who is also just a different beast to everybody but Kendrick has pop level appeal.
I can name A LOT of pop acts who have shown Kendrick love and a lot
Kendrick is a worldwide superstar. His appeal has gone way past just Hip Hop fans.

The former president (Obama) named Kendrick his favourite rapper @CashmereThoughts
Kendrick ain't some underground rapper. He's on Beyonce, Weeknd, Maroon 5 etc
Drake, Kendrick J Cole all at the highest platform to different extents and the pop world pay attetion to them.

lazy fba philly nikka,
That dark skinned sista with the M
I've been simpin on her since I saw her in this Overdoz video.
TPAB had a botched launch and Interscope wasn't really feeling it like that...I expect bigger numbers. He might do more than Drake this time around.

Ya'll are trying too hard to force this shyt; it's kinda embarrassing to watch.
Just like the word "fetch", that ain't ever gonna happen.
Like this never caught on huh?
People danced and quoted this joint...this single will be the same way.
