I think Drake could take a step back but the fact remains that his next album will do 350k+ and live on the charts. I think Cole took damage too but will still hit 300k+ first week. Carti still sells, Uzi still sells, Lil Baby can sell, Durk too, etc. There are a lot of successful rappers, sales wise. It's not just Travis and Kendrick.

If there's a problem it's that rappers after Drake/Cole/Kendrick haven't grown the way they should. Both Carti and Uzi's last albums were poorly received by many fans, as was Baby's last album. If you read the HDD article it details what Travis' team was doing behind the scenes to get him to #1. What is Uzi's team doing right now? Carti? Baby? Lot of dudes are just burning braincells on drugs and endless studio nights recording the same shyt over and over. And their teams aren't doing shyt about it.

The hyper fixation on sales numbers is annoying.

Especially by fans who have nothing to gain from sales and streams except bragging rights. The conversation has shifted from skills and abilities to "so and so sold and streamed more, and your guy is a bum for not being on their level."

Drake and Nicki fans are the biggest culprits of this corny ass behavior.

Didn't Eminem outsell them all?

Eminem hasn't outsold any of them in a very long time. At least not when it comes to album sales

Blame Jay and 50 for this bs

Drake has been flopping since the beef (and he been underperforming as a solo artist for quite some time now, relying on 20/25+ tracks projects to boost his streaming numbers according to billboard)

So an official solo Drake project wouldn’t do numbers?

Pretty sure his last album outsold Future's 1st week

we don’t know.. but he’s been flopping with loose tracks so far
