Yep. Apple has way more listeners than Tidal. Tidal is like an independent start up compared to Apples McDonalds type reach. Drake has the full backing of the biggest music supplier right now.
Good for 'Drake' and the people who helped him.
Why should this matter on a hip hop board? You gettin a check?

Record sales has been a topic on message boards for a long time. Ever since Jay said "I sold what your whole album sold in my first week" lol
what was the drop off % in the physical sales department
conveniently forgot to mention that,op 
you drake nuthuggers think you slick!!
I'm finally listening to this sh1t. How in da hell is this guy this popular? I just will never understand it. He can't sing for sh1t & his raps are barely above avg. But it's fukkin sad I would prefer to listen to this than Kendrick or Cole. This gen of rap is awful. Makes me miss Lil Wayne's run and I thought he was awful
Getting a little personal over Drake ain't cha?You are a member of one or both of those groups
What kinda hiphop fan are you? Casual.

Prior week
"Views tallied a 70 percent decline in units compared to its debut frame a week ago (1.04 million units), while its sales collapsed by 79 percent (falling from 852,000 to 175,000)."
This week
"Views earned another 239,000 equivalent album units (down 24 percent) in the week ending May 19 in the U.S., according to Nielsen Music. Of that sum, 83,000 were in traditional album sales (down 53 percent)."
Am I missing something? All I see is an album that has lost steam gained a small bump because it was finally released on all services. Why are y'all acting surprised. He dropped his album 3 weeks ago so week one numbers will happen. The next week he had a big drop off and the reviews started running in and they were mixed. He goes on SNL and his album is finally available on all outlets and he has a slight bump. This isn't surprising considering no one else has dropped an album since he has.
