Right, because 2 multi billion dollar corporations care about starting beef between Kevin Gates and Rihanna enough to make some random shyt up.

Listen to everything nikkas say as if they're telling the truth brehs, even if the same person admitted to fukking their cousin (after knowing) and has hit more women at his shows than nikkas.

Kevin Gates doesn’t shy away from speaking his mind. He was in a middle of a controversy last month when he commented on the Black Lives Matter movement saying “All Lives Matter” in a radio interview with 106 KMEL.

The rapper, who surprised everyone by selling over 100k copies of his album Islah in the first week, made a stop at 93.9 radio station in Washington D.C. to speak with The Fam morning show hosts.

At the 6:55 mark, Kevin says that when he paid a visit to the Apple office, a lady told him that he actually outsold Rihanna’s ANTIalbum which was released in the same week, but couldn’t grab the #1 spot because Samsung bought her CDs. Well, considering Samsung and Apple are rivals in every aspect of the business, we can expect them to say something like that.

He also passionately addresses the controversy about his comments on Black Lives Matter, saying that people took the wrong meaning of his words and he never intended to say that he doesn’t care about his own people. Watch the full interview below.

Breh, who gives a fukk. The question is with every artist IN THE WORLD that have put out albums since this samsung/apple war been going on, WHY is Kevin Gates the first person to bring some shyt like this to the table. And Rihanna nikka? Any nikka who thinks a RAPPER is about to outsell Rihanna you're out of your fukking mind. Unless it's a Drake/Kanye/Kendrick level - other than that I'm calling everytime and you nikkas should be ashamed of yourselves for being such dikkheads. Do better, I want you to.

Article please.
The one that you claim says Kevin Gates sold more albums than Rihanna - BACKED UP BY FACTS. Please, I'd like to see it. Then I'd like to hear from the Apple rep this nikka is claiming told him this. What you nikkas seem not to be comprehending is that her fanbase is so definite that a company like samsung is willing to purchase a million copies without batting an eye. This shyt is laughable that this is even up for discussion and you nikkas are either the biggest stans God created or just idiots. Personally I'd feel better if you were stanning.

Maybe I'm confused as to what you're saying but RIAA said she's plat and Soundscan said she did 166k first week.

Soundscan/Billboard don't even count sales via promotional or special deals. So all them copies Samsung copped are null and void.

See actually that was her second week. That's what Apple was saying. The first week was a tital exclusive with Samsung. So actually that should have been gates spot. Her first chart position was 27th cause of what you said. They didn't count those bought shyts

What he's saying is if Samsung didn't basically buy them shyts, then the stream numbers wouldn't have been so high. Cause they got two weeks worth of free streaming




Rihanna's Anti was leaked on TIDAL on January 27, and she soon decided to give away 1,000,000 free downloads of the album. It became available on other online music stores on January 29, the same release date as Gates' Islah. The same day, Anti was certified platinum by the RIAA, but it was soon reported that Samsung preemptively purchased 1,000,000 copies of Anti, hence all the free giveaways upon the album's release.

"No, but Kevin, Samsung paid for Rihanna's CDs, and that's not fair," Gates continued, relaying the words of a female Apple employee.

Due to its early release, Rihanna's chart debut came a week before Kevin's, though Anti's first placement was shockingly modest: No. 27. However, the initial chart only accounted for less than half a week of sales and did not include any of the free album downloads. The next week, Anti racked in over 172,000 units and rose to No. 1, one spot ahead of Gates' Islah, which moved approximately 112,000 units.

There has not been any information suggesting Nielsen included Samsung's pre-bought albums in Anti's second-week sales, though it remains confusing how exactly Billboard configured its streaming numbers. And, of course, Apple is a competitor of Samsung's, but regardless if its No. 1 or No. 2, the numbers for Gates' debut album are outstanding. Though he doesn't seem to be particularly impressed
