No one else on TDE will sell shyt tho. Platinum should not be the goal right now. Making HIPHOP instead of pandering pop records should be the primary focus of urban music right now. GKMC is a step in the right direction with or without white ppl running out to buy it. We need to let this obsession with record sales go

Hiphop is currently more balanced then it's been since the early, early pre chronic 90's, but let some of these :flabbynsick: dudes tell it we still in the snap era

how is Kendrick going to push another 120k albums?


he not going plat

he hasn't sell under 10 K yet

+ he is going to release the official video of the next single ( bytch don't kill my vibe) and the song is already doing well in the hot 100 without any video, he is headling the biggest festivals this summer, etc.

he is definitely going plat

true but some people enjoy trolling or hating on artists who are killing it right now because they feel insecure about their favorite artist, the album is still one of the most acclaimed albums of these last years ( already in a lot of "greatest albums of all time, all genre" lists from respectable magazines) and it's going plat...
An album is either acclaimed or popular, gkmc is popular AND acclaimed as fukk, Kendrick also managed to obtain a pac-stan worthy stanbase quick as ****.The last time it happened was in 2010 with MBDTF.

breh, I want to see the nikka to plat, and he from cali makes it that much better


but if BDKMV really pops off people may cop the single but it's not moving album units
