Still? Didn't he have 8 platinum (three double platinum in there) albums in a row to start his career? He can sell less now he is set, dude won.... I am sure his 21k sales on this album the first week will be fine.

As far as legacy acts go, Nas in the upper half.

You got Maroon 5 who went Diamond before only had a 18k first week this year.

Will.Smith sold shyt
Wow damn at Maroon 5. Streaming hurts legacy acts so bad man. Grown people don't have time to be fukking streaming all day. They would rather buy the music and listen when they can.

Streaming is the greatest thing that ever happened to legacy acts.
Maroon 5 has 14 million daily streams on Spotify alone. They’re making millions of dollars a year without recording new music or producing physical copies of anything.

Respectfully you’re wrong.
Catalogs that stream a lot are worth more than ever.
The evidence is all around and is easily accessible not here to argue.
shyt like 50k a year maybe. That ain’t shyt for a multi platinum legacy artist. Especially in a damn group. If they sold the albums that it translates to for real. They would be like 190k. And that’s only getting $2 an album sale.

If you think 14 million streams a day consistently being one of the 50 most streamed artists in the world is worth only 50k a year I don’t even know what to tell you.
This information is easily accessible.

Yes. It’s between 40 something and 70k a year. Depending on the percentage. Not more than that. Streams don’t give u shyt.
