bayonse 6,525 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Although sales will likely account for a minuscule piece of his total (The Life of Pablo is for sale only on his website), Kanye West may be a contender for #1 on our next Sales + Plus Streaming (SPS) chart. Since going wide to Spotify, Apple Music and other services last week, preliminary data suggests Pablo (G.O.O.D./Def Jam) is on track for some 90m streams, which would put him at 60k+ SEA. This would, as far as we know, be the first time an album hit #1 SPS with virtually no sales—a benchmark for the new era. Controversy is said to be swirling around the question of how any sales Kanye's website generates will or won't be reported, causing some drama at the Industry Bible regarding whether the album would be eligible to chart. http://hitsdailydouble.com/news&id=300518 you better stream the album of the year no more parties in LA Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supersonic 49,376 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Tragedy.m4a This TEA+SEA system is so faulty and stretches the reality of popularity so much that it's borderline close to being fraudulent. A #1 album with no albums sold, this is so messy. A much better solution to including TEA+SEAs would be to only include TEAs and SEAS according to the least downloaded or streamed track of the album (aka: How many complete album listens or downloads could be constructed according the amount of single tracks downloaded and streamed) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elijahfan 26,484 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Why won't you just release your record normally, like everyone else..... What those so called geniuses forgot with Tidal is that if you're making it hard for people to access the music, people will just... move on. Like, I still have never seen the video for Feeling Myself... In what world do artists want to make it hard for people to watch a ****ing video, or to get an album?

Iwontell 7,312 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 90m streams, which HDD itself mathematically demonstrated is impossible for the album to have at this point being a Tidal exclusive... But congrats to him, whatever gets him and his fans off... ATTENTION: (bad) jokes and sarcasm are still a thing, so don't take everything I say literally. Thank you.
