Yeah thats a flop bruh... which kinda proves everyones point... The machine made Drake, not the other way around.
nikka independent Drake sells 250k easily without the machine and he’d make 10x more money than Drake WITH the machine. No Independent artist in 2025 is doing 200k. Kanye did 150k and it had a #1 song in there, it was a win.
Drake did 250 with no single, no major features, no label Backing and no radio airplay, beefing with UMG, iHeart and Spotify the people controlling 80% of the streaming/Airplay. Off a few IG posts and a few influencers

Usually Drake songs are everywhere.. 500k+ first week, songs all over the radio, the clubs, social media, athletes and teams posting about it on IG, tiktok dances etc.
This shyt is a dud.... Drake thought he was bigger than the program, when in reality, the program made him... and this flopped album proves it.
Again you actin like the nikka did 60k first week. 250k on a collab album is a major win. Nokia getting 2% of radio airplay.
The Weeknd one of the most streamed artist in the world had 3 singles, performed at the Grammys, had major features and major label support to go (without the bundles)130k first week, 98k 2nd week and 58, 48 the next two weeks.
Looking like $$$4U will do 247k, 117k and 88k but that’s a “flop” make it make sense.

Don’t take it from me. Russ and Steve Stout might know something about the music business you probably not aware of.
