Drake’s “More Life” Expected To Hit Sky-High Numbers

    We’re getting closer to the March 18 release of Drake’s More Life. Probably.

    Hits Daily Double shares that the playlist is rumored to be hitting all streaming platforms, and is not an Apple Music exclusive like Drizzy’s VIEWS. But the site warns that the OVO squad is making decisions right up until the last minute, so nothing is confirmed.

    HDD’s last information about the playlist was from a week ago and said that More Life was coming out “as soon as this weekend,” which obviously didn’t happen. But their info about the team’s indecisiveness helps explain the multiple delays. The Toronto star announced the project back in October and has teased fans ever since.

    More Life is projected by HDD to rack up enough streams to make as many as 400,000 equivalent album units. This would be about 600 million streams. VIEWS opened with 245 million streams and 851,000 album sales to push one million units its first week.

    Drake was Spotify’s most-streamed artist of 2016, breaking record after record on multiple platforms.

    Chance The Rapper and Kanye West broke new ground when Coloring Book and The Life of Pablo charted on the Billboard 200 strictly off streams without any sales.

    According to Nielson’s Soundscan reports, 1,500 streams equal one equivalent album unit.

    1. Drake’s next album after this will definitely outsell thriller. 300 million worldwide albums, all no.1 singles.

    2. You mean like FAKE NUMBERS? These mfs are selling barely 200k in real life. They make their money off of touring thats why they Tour 24/7 or they WILL stay broke. Kevin Gates outted out the Industry recently when an Apple exec told him he sold more than Rihanna but the big Labels dont want that to be public information so they lie and make up numbers. There are BOT FARMS out there in the Real World set up by the big Record companies and all they do is stream their music over and over again 24/7. This creates a fake scenario where it seems like the Artist is really selling and is “hot” right now on the Internet. Nothing Organic, its all propoganda.

      1. They are called “click farms”. They are predominately located in East Asian countries like Cambodia. This was what kept views from the stix on top for so long. The record companies later write off their services. They probably spent a few million on Grayke’s last album to do the numbers it did.

    4. You guys are idiots. Even if your claim was true, did you not read the part where he sold 851k just off of pure album sales. Meaning no streams. Hate him all you want, he is the biggest artist of our generation. Beyoncé couldn’t even do drake numbers.

      1. Biggest of our generation?? What?? He is extremely popular but he ain’t selling what top rappers in the 90’s were selling. When wayne was at his peak and popularity he was similar to drake they both come out and do like close to a million the first week and everybody goes crazy but then you look around 2 or 3 year later and their albums that did a million first week or only at like 2 million or 2.5, 3 at the most. Pac drop like 4 albums straight that sold over 4 million, Bone thugs drop like 3-4 albums straight that did over 4 million if Big wouldn’t have pass he would have done the same. Majority of people don’t hate on drake is just that when people don’t like his music call him wack that’s considered hating, and he is not Rap/hip hop he is pop, he is close to the Backstreet boys not a jay z.

      2. Naa. You can’t be the biggest artist if you don’t make the most money… PERIOD. It’s just social media really got y’all head gone. Beyoncé last tour did like $260,000,000… So stop it. Nobody makes more money than her… And she’s 100% black. She is the biggest. It’s just Drake is in his own lane. An actor who sings and raps from a TV show. He is BY FAR the most manufacturered artist of all time. I’ve never seen nothing like this. Eminem was doing CRAZYYYYY numbers without Social Media and SINGING. Let that sink in….

    5. All everybody talk about now is record sales, money, and who slept with who, is the albums actually good & worth buying

    6. “Views has sold 1.61 million recognized copies and a total of 4.14 million album-equivalent units in the United States.”
      This nigg* is the stream king.
      Call me when he sells 4 million physical copies like all of eminems albums. Shit, call me when he sells 1.7 million copies in the first week like em!

      1. em coudnt do it in these times. its different now. em not getting more streams or sales than drake in 2017.

          1. Bro your feelings gonna get hurt and I’m not even a drake dick rider lol he just runs the game now.

            1. LOL, you dont realize Eminem has a cult following far bigger than wheel chair jimmy. To put it in better perspective Drakes sold 17M records since his debut world wide, and mad advertises himself like the prop stunt he is. Eminem has sold 172M records, half of them in the “people dont buy record days” of the last 8 years.. Ps. The Marshall Mathers LP just went double platinum Feb. 2017 and that album had 0 buzz

    7. Drake=An industry ARs wet dream. Pop, light skinned, former actor, “street” credible friends/collaborators, raps to women

    8. Kill yourself, Drake. You’re from soft ass Canada. You ain’t shit. Nobody cared about Canada and Toronto before you were famous. You’re nothing but a fake Canadian bitch and a poser, Drake. End your life and hang yourself, Drake.

      1. why is canada soft? cause we don’t kill eachother move colors? cause we don’t hang black people? cause we don’t want to go to jail? free health care? good weed? real women? we do have a asshole for a leader? what makes us soft? why be hard? where did that get ya’ll?

    9. Drake can sell 40 million copies in the first week, have 100 number one songs, have billions of fans, have 500 million dollars, win every single award and be the most famous and successful rapper in the world….Doesn’t matter. He will always be a talentless bitch made poser from Canada. Kill yourself, Drake.

    10. Nobody likes Drake anymore. His album sales are fake. He buys his own albums. Drake deserves to get shot.

      1. shutcho dumb ass up, more life getting better number than views you dumb fuck. Views went double platinum and had a billion streams on spotify.

    11. Lmao look at all the no life having ass hater in these comments right now, shaking and sweating cause drakes the biggest artist out. 7+ yrs and still getting bigger

    12. A click farm is a form of click fraud, where a large group of low-paid workers are hired to click on paid advertising , subscribe , like , follow or stream. so apple hires a rapper and then pushes the numbers
