And Renaissance pulling bigger numbers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beyle Street Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Donda was obviously still expected to happen and the trolled delaying was just to amp up the anticipation for it so the "surprise" angle doesn't work here. Maybe the Sunday angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the Sunday angle. Right I remember the Donda rollout being huge and he also had his typical media antics, Drake vs Kanye, building up the hype. I don’t know where they were getting at bc Renaissance is slaying organically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinyl is notoriously difficult to produce with only a few factories doing it and they are backed up for months and months, it's likely the vinyl they are selling is the max amount they could get at this time. More will be released later I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrudenceHCharmed Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 200K pure sales with vinyls not available and CDs sold out in stores B could destroy your fav if she didn't sabotage herself again and again.

If we adjust the market is probably just a big of a debut. And no one other than Taylor or Adele can move as much physical units as her. The best album of the 2020’s so far did that Yes folklore sold 846k the best album of 2020’s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreeXone Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 (edited) I honestly feel she would have even more if the album wasnt experiemental for her standards. It kind of ignored her contemporary RnB fab base. Edited August 3, 2022 by FreeXone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simon Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 (edited) She could have sold like 300k box sets alone. All 4 sold out in a week and she could have restocked them and had something to sell for 5 more weeks. Lol. Plus she would have gotten another boost after the reveal. I feel like her team will do it right for Act II though! Edited August 3, 2022 by simon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a whole movie to look forward to and maybe even performances + the songs on Renaissance have way more viral potential. Will it dip? For sure.

Aethereal Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Monsters are comparing this album's numbers with Lemonade's but not with The Gift or other side projects? Why? Weren't you making a big deal with Bey's side projects chart performances in 2019? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
