UPDATED: DRAKE - SCORPION - 740k total activity, 150-160k album

Ok, so the most valuable company in the world is risking billion dollar lawsuits and damage to their reputation for young black men rapping about codein now, to boost dudes ballers status. These Drake duck riders are getting wilder by the post

Big companies get sued literally every single day, B

All of a sudden Drake selling equal to J Cole and less than Frank Ocean is not a flop

If the numbers come out as predicted he'll come out having sold LESS than Cole (174k)

they do it for everybody to boost their own brand. it just happens that drake is their biggest artist and raps about codeine and what not.
the whole streaming business from spotify to youtube is fugazy

Kendrick sold a million physicals for Damn though

Who else is doing that today? Even Cole's physical sales dropped significantly with his new album.

Having LA on lockdown+diverse fan base works wonders.

Again, I won't be commenting on Drake's sales until its final. Projections can be off and I don't want to get put on that summer jam screen. But man I can't wait for the final numbers.

Nah. That next Em album will sell even less than than Revival :PPicard:
Em is done :pdahellclean:

That's what they said after Encore. You underestimate Eminems white fan base.

Pure sales doesn't just mean physical CDs, it also means digital album sales which means you can buy Scorpion right now anytime you want.

 

[Sindicated]

Barely outselling Kendrick with double the tracks and the industry push? Wasn't expecting this

Kendrick actually has over 180k more pure sells then Drake meaning he not only out sold drake but the difference is still more then what drake sold

WATTBA

Lol, I explained that a few times in this thread, they somehow keep ignoring this fact.

Yes, I explained it as well. They want to tell you about numbers until they don't wanna hear about numbers anymore
