I got no less than 4 emails from Spotify to go listen to the album.

I’ve never received a single email to listen to any other album before.

but but its breaking streaming records! :mjlol:

All this manufacturing and it might barely do a million "activity" first week. Kendrick did 700,000 with no promotion.

I took this as Spotify trying to capitalize on the fact that Drake has no identity of his own. :manny:

They were scared for their cash cow after the exposals. The more time goes by, Push diss track might be the best of all time. It exposed Drake but this is revealing in itself too. :wow:

I personally don't have an issue with this. :manny: How you gonna get upset at Universal for dropping that bag to promote their artist and at Spotify for taking a check? I bet the same ppl that are complaining wouldn't have an issue if it was their favorite artist all on the front page.
Everyday people will excuse an album selling terribly because there was no promotion, and then complain about it when a label actually does because it's Drake. I don't even look at the playlist covers when I play it.

I need to clarify....I been against this streaming shyt more or less since day 1. Yes I think Drake is a clown but I've said equally disparaging things about Spotify, Apple, etc. when Kendrick was breaking records, and I'm obviously a huge fan of Kendrick. I spoke out against Spotify "modifying" playlists based on artist content, and I don't even fukk with half the artists it affected.
If cats want to let this slide for Drake

ok cool whatever but let this be Post Malone or somebody The Coli deems an "outsider" and it would be a completely different story.

Drake really is too big to fail :wow:

They putting this mans music on gospel playlist :heh:

He gets paid by Apple so they can spam his music, then his team goes and pays Spotify to spam his music. :ohhh:

If Corporate Drizzy was half as good as a father as he is a corporate shill he’d be father of the year :russ:
