Wait are you telling me Kanye in his first week barely outsold Charli Xcx's two month old album?  Wow he is truly over  

[Clauss]

How can you go from a #1 song and #1 album to this collapse so quick?

[no_better]

Can someone explain to me how sales work? How is Taylor's album #1 so many weeks after its release - surely all of her fans have bought it already? Or is it about specific number of streams = a sale?

Each physical album must be listened to 1500 times before it's counted for the charts. Billboard has a small mechanism in each copy sold which can track this.

Kanye waited at least 3 months too long to release this. Had he released this in the 2nd half of March, April, or even the first Friday in May, this would have done significant damage. By the time he released the album, the buzz from Carnival/Vultures 1 was gone.

Well they should be listening to folklore

Both Vultures are trash and his mental health is even worse now. Only the die hard ride or die dying with him type are stuck around for now. Kanye is never coming back…… his future looks bleak
