couple points I'd make...
1. Travis' tour is selling out arenas right now. Clearly he's popular, but the sales aren't representative of that
2. One of the better ways to determine true popularity via streaming boils down to albums with the most songs with over 500k or 1mil sales. I saw an article last week that said Cardi and Kendrick are the only recent rappers to release an album where every song has sold 1mil or more. I'd imagine Drake will join that list with Scorpion in a few months, obviously. Whereas a lot of artists are living off 1-2 hits inflating everything. I'd bet money that Lil Baby's album streams are like 90% based off Yes Indeed, for instance. Hits matter, folks...
3. Astroworld was a bad album, admit it.

I mean it’s the sickest song on the album besides drakes appearance so I think it would’ve dominated the album regardless.
But yeah obviously drake makes anybody single 100x hotter off GP.

that's what I be telling y'all about these fake ass streaming numbers and that's why nikkas put out long albums going something sticks.
as far as #s go they just need one to hit

the album is good as fukk. i'd hate to see it eclipsed by a drake feature when he literally raps about being asleep for like 8 bars 
You crazy
ThIs has been the same formula for success since the beginning of time
Hits are what matter in music

singles were singles before. albums were albums
Singles have always sold albums
You act like it wasn’t the norm for people to buy an album for one song and only play that song
