Drake Has More Streams Than All Of The Hip-Hop Artists Combined

[CrimsonTider]

Even more reason for the asterisk. We're comparing US album "sales" of the past to current international "sale equivalent streams".

@CrimsonTider did you know this?

What did I say about the past? What doesn't his thread have to do with the past?

This is what you said about the past...

How can general consensus be that it sucks and the numbers show its getting played more than any album we've seen in a long time

Do you want to clarify what you meant by "in a long time"?

And the reason I tagged you is because the streaming numbers are international. We've never considered international sales prior to this. So why are we considering international streams now?

The anger in here.

I'm not even mad. I just think that some people are stupid. I've been heavily pro streams, but this dumbass just said 100 million streams makes sense because 100 million people know who Drake is. I knew who Britney Spears was and never listened to her album. I don't even hate Drake, I hate his stans. They say the dumbest shyt ever. The internet makes me realize how stupid people truly are every day. Like if you're online you have Google at your hands. I've heard everything from streams are an adequate gauge of how people feel about your total product to the internet is somehow reflective of opinions offline. There is no middle ground. I feel like everyone is just trolling.

How Logic doing those numbers?

I smell a plant

Eminem's Marshall Mathers LP sold 33 million records internationally. If you were to take the new formula which is 1500 streams = 1 album sold then that would put MMLP at 48 billion streams.

If you do it based on the 12 million he sold in the US from MMLP...he would have had 18 billion......

An album that's been #1 for 9 straight weeks can't have a general consensus of mediocre...

He has always had a large female fanbase he's probably black females GOAT at this
point, barnone

I don't remember people other than snobs hating on Nelly during that era

Britney did 20 mill

I'm not considering anything. My point was that this is album is pretty damn popular Based on the numbers

Britney did 20 mill

Are you saying Britney can't have a good project?

How can rating music be anything other than subjective?

Well that's a very different statement than your original statement, and one that I don't think anybody can dispute.
But popular is not synonymous with good.

Says who?

 

[CrimsonTider]

Wrong thread

 

[Mac Casper]

The jigs up . . you don't think they have a machine for this?

Seriously . . you don't think they have a server that can generate plays from various proxy addresses?

It's easier than making BitCoins

stop being sheep

Says who?

Who says it isn't?

 

[CrimsonTider]

Who says it isn't?

You said Popular doesn't mean good?

And I asked who determines this?

And I asked you who determines it is not.
But let me ask you this...McDonalds is one of the most popular restaurants in the world, does that mean its one of the best?
