ANTI's sloppy rollout definitely hindered things though, why do we continue to ignore that? Yes, she's been a dummy for the past year but TIDAL really messed it all up. Her song is rising to #1 now, all hope isn't lost.
But yeah, every one of those albums would have bombed/underperformed if they were released in January, especially C2C and Britney Jean which would've totally tanked.

The only thing "sloppy" is that it leaked for 30 minutes - 6 hours. Like albums haven't leaked before.
4 leaked A MONTH in advance and debuted to the tune of 320k first week.

The rumored pushbacks that turned out to be true? The scrapped singles? The behind the scenes drama? Drawn out Samsung deal thing? Eventual release on Tidal in the deadest month for album sales? 1 million free copies?
Yeah, it was the messiest album rollout of ALL TIME.
