    The Off Season is probably going to be Cole's lowest selling album

    You should definitely give it a listen. It's as good as F&L and TC.

    You mean in pure sales? Yea


    It’ll be plat in a free weeks tho of the streaming s---, in 2021 that’s all that matters lol. The album got over 360 million streams first week, the largest of the year so far.. think y’all gotta understand how the streaming era work now.. it’s even different than it was when kod dropped.. pure sales are down cause ppl are basically streaming, no one is buying albums digitally or cd wise... if they was still buying them like that he would’ve did KOD numbers with this album... kod pure sales was like 170k, off season was 37k, kod moving that 170k pure pushed his total numbers close to 400k. Off season didn’t do that much pure sales, so the 280k was accurate..

    When you look at the total streams first week he did similar numbers with kod and the off season.

    It doesn't have much if any commercial appeal. This probably his least commercial sounding album.

    Drake last release did a lil less than the off season.. (dark lane demos) I know it was a compilation album and not a true studio album , but to me that still says a lot. I see certified lover boy doing like 320k total at most and maybe 45k pure sales .

    At this point I think they should do away with the pure sales and the equivalent units sales and just report the total on demand streams for each release.. imo that is the most accurate numbers, and doesn’t make it confusing for the people who don’t get how it work now..

    Like off season was streamed 350 million times should be the first week numbers

    How I judge it is, I look at the game in whole, and see the numbers these other rappers doing, Cole sold more than lil baby , dababy, roddy, moneybag , al them boys... only rapper that will outsell Cole is drake maybe that’s it. So really cole is still at the the same position he been in.. at the top of the game alongside drake lol, and even with numbers down some, it still reflects it

    To be honest Cole needs to go platinum before the year is up.
