Safe to say that Drake and Taylor will continue to be the top artists of the 2020s.

I'm sure by 2023/2024 we'll see their power wane as new juggernauts rise, but yeah, it kind of isn't a competition with them

but not Folklore or even Lover 

Folklore and Lover were before Billboard changed all the Bundles rules and Physicals rules 

 

 

700M first week US streams is absolutely insane

Jeez, I really thought he was going downhill ever since his last album didn't do so great  Great and shocking numbers tho

They have huge catalogue, they have 5+ albums charting on BB200 every week. Any new artist no matter how much of juggernaut with two/three albums contributing to chart points can't really compete with them on decade end artist list.

Scorpion was his last proper studio album. Projects after that weren’t official albums.

Insane numbers regardless of the quality of the album.

Taylor wishes  the real music industry is Drake

 

I don’t think with everything planned, Taylor can debut with bigger number than this but she can surprise me.

 

Outsold Kanye

The way he ENDED Kanye!  

How? Kanye clearly has the better album and still debuted with 300k++ which is the 2nd best debut week of the year.

 

They both won

This is insane. 700m streams  Even if the predictions decrease he'll still have the biggest opening since the new bundling rules until adele releases

****ing crazy , lil nas has no chance 

straights won again

Does he have any physical editions?

 

wow those numbers are enormous in this climate

The difference is Taylor's sales these days come from her fans who buy multiple copies while Drake has real GP demand and support AND a fanbase. 

Wow

 

This slayage and with no hits out this time around unlike Scorpion having both God’s Plan and Nice For What.
