    This is r-----ed, 286k ain't a flop, besides the album has to be complete s--- in order to be considered a flop, otherwise it's just overlooked

    Flop means sales obviously, good albums can flop too. I don't think this album is good though. If people love the album then it's even worse tbh.

    Adele just flopped too :50:

    Drake did 600K without physicals, Kendrick should have been around 500K at least since his music is more boring than Drake's.

    Kendrick is doing Eminem surprise release with 0 promo numbers. That's weak.

    @Marsh is right. This album is a flop because it had big hype from all those nerds and virgins and it only did 284k with a double album. When the canadian carlton banks did that he broke records and that scorpion morpion album was boring too so there you have it

    It's not for someone like Future, Gunna, Lil Baby. It is a flop for one of the top 3 rappers or Em:kanye3:

    If that's the only metric you're using then why are we having this convo lol. we're not a post Malone stan twitter acct. who cares? If you wanna talk metrics for "quality" that only obsessive nerds use, sales is #1

    Cause the sales have been posted. Some artists do good, some flop, and that's only related to sales. The rest goes in album reviews.

    Tbh sales have never lied more than ever with people gaming streams with deluxe editions and "EPs" consisting of songs from an album that came out that same day, not to mention people faking streams outright using bots and such. Plus the whole merch bundle thing they banned.

    You're really good at not letting people enjoy themselves, you're a parasite to s80. It's dying because of you and it also can't live without your constant posts, it's a f----- up cycle tbh.

    lol you know I don't really talk s--- about rappers, I just commented on this because the numbers are out there and it's a fact, you can't be right or wrong about this. It underperfomed.

    This is the same guy that said

    Ain't nobody safe
    When I come up killin' everybody that's outside

    And then the album is pretty mid. I don't hate Kendrick, it's just what it is. I love his early stuff

    99% of the rap genre would k--- for Kendrick's 'flop' numbers. That claim is such bs.

    The whole “Kendrick’s music is too intelligent” bit as stupid as it is, is actually true for people like Marsh, honestly.

    Why cause his music is more intelligent than a trap album? That's not hard :empalm:
