ViviLittleM 3 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 1 000 copies sold. what the ACTUAL F*CK is this mess? smh Kanye West’s The Life of Pablo descends 1-4 with 47,000 units (down 50 percent). The album fell 95 percent in traditional album sales, falling from a 28,000 start to a little more than 1,000 copies sold. (Much of its first week sales were bolstered by pre-orders not delivered until after the album saw a wide release on April 1. Those pre-orders were sold as part of a ticket/album bundle to his Yeezy 3 fashion show held at Madison Square Garden and screened via a live stream in movie theaters. The remaining sales were from Tidal and West’s official website.) http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/chart-beat/7334131/the-lumineers-score-their-first-no-1-album-on-billboard-200-cleopatra-charts Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iwontell 7,312 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Dude...does it really matter at this point, though? I mean, we all know how unreliable these numbers are... He's 4th bc of stream numbers provided by Tidal, a service that he OWNS... I mean it IS funny that traditional sales are down for everyone, but for Tidal artists the disproportion between sales and streams is abyssal... ATTENTION: (bad) jokes and sarcasm are still a thing, so don't take everything I say literally. Thank you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry 26,836 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Everyone saying it's Tidal inflating numbers to give him a higher chart spot is wrong lol. The album was Tidal exclusive until it went on other streaming services last week, and it never charted before that. What is the problem? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
