    It had been bugging me all week that the opening of "Having No Head" reminded me of something and it finally clicked. Am I crazy?

    For those curious, billboard estimates sales around 45,000 for this. Official numbers tend to be released on Sunday.

    No some SoundCloud rapper sold like 800 copies and still debuted at number one.

    Im so out of touch with how the system even works anymore to track how many "sales" an artist has.

    It’s hard to know anymore. Rock bands typically sell more physical copies relative to streams, but every other genres are pretty much just streaming at this point.

    Yeah, streaming helps TONS of artists, it’s wild. There are albums hitting number one while selling so little physical copies. It’s wild.

    ABI sold about 66k, I believe. Debuted at #4. ILIWYS debuted at 1 with 99k I think? But that was probably when the hype was at its peak, I’d say.

  17. true but the band released them and obviously wanted fans to listen.

    it's a super small gripe, but i think it's fair to consider how that strategy affects people's experience of the album.

    Their roll outs only impact my experience of them as humans lol

    Not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but I just found out Bagsy Not In Net samples Sailing by Christopher Cross... not a song (or artist) I was ever familiar with...

    Kinda funny, I was just out running errands with my mom, had the latter portion of the album playing and she actually told me... Bagsy comes on and she’s like “hey, wait a minute...” and sure enough... lol
