Oh wow. Crazy
Hopefully he does 1M pure sales. That would be very impressive.


And please everyone stop with the "would have done more with physical" "would have done more with Spotify" bs. We don't know. And a lot of released are held off Spotify because people think it cuts into pure sales...

1M is good.

HDD: Drake's #'s changed; 1M sales

[Chemical X.]

Versace (Remix) is finally true. A King AND a prophet

Rap artist achieving 1m+ digital pure sales debut in 2016 with no physicals. Totes underwhelming

[Bloomers]

I will be hoping these projections pan out for him.

KING. Doing 1M is pure sales.

King Em in the top 2 positions

So with physicals this could've went even higher? I'm impressed.

Why do people believe physical copies would've changed the numbers? Drakes fanbase is a younger demographic who probably don't but CDs.

Common sense. Physcials wouldn't automatically eat away digital.

Also the 2m was industry talk, not just or even HDD's expectations. He probably would've achieved it with physicals, Spotify, etc.

Specially if he's expected to over 200m on Apple Music alone.

Okay, but the 200K SEA+TEA part

One Dance is the only track for sale. Say it sells 150K (will have a strong lead on iTunes, but also Complete My Album). That's 15K TEA, which leaves 185K.

185,000 * 1500 streams = 277,500,000 streams

I don't get how the streams are so huge. But I mean, Beyonce apparently did 100M on TIDAL.

This means One Dance can definitely go #1 the same week as his album. He's doubling up.

Talent.

Omg! KING

Double pure sales and streams while exclusive to Apple

How?

Drake will outdo our fave JT's first week after a 7 year hiatus (which had physicals available in store alongside the digital copies at digital retailers).

Imagine if it was on Spotify & YT.
