    Cole did even less on pure streams so streaming is not that reflective. Also even if you use streaming views only did like 250k pure sales and he sold 852 pure sales.

    He would definitely do around 200k. He has the buzz, the fanbase, and is consistently dropping great music.

    Drake never was that type of artist, why would he do that? Chance, Kendrick, Cole or anyone else in the game can't seem to do bunch of s--- Drake does for 7 years so I don't get the point of this post.

    cole did 15k in stream sales first week. chance did 38k. chance's release was a pure streaming release. chance would not do 200k out the gate. i'd give him 100k.

    The point of the post was to show WHY people are asking chance to do s--- like this and why bigger artists like Drake wouldn't even bother. Got it?

    I'm aware of that, but I don't understand your logic why should Drake bother to do something like this?

    A pure streaming release that people mostly would have downloaded for free because not everyone has apple music. A lot of those same people would buy an album if he released it. But I ain't stressing. We'll see when/if he drops an album for sale.

    I find it hard to believe that Chance is able to pay and get all these artists on songs without the help of a major label.

    Def Jam, Roc Nation, Interscope and others can't be happy about him getting their artists on songs and putting them out for free. I'm sure a Justin Bieber feature isn't cheap.

    Bino was bigger than chance when acid
    Rap came out. Royalty was dope. He's not on chances level now. Just to put things in perspective though chance was not on binos level at that time. I dont think drake was signed when so far gone came out either... I could be wrong though.

    You could be right man, there's just a lot of evidence suggesting he's had a ton of help to get to the point that he's at right now. I don't wanna suggest Chance isn't talented or works hard, cause he is and does.

    Sure he's popular, but to get on a tour with Em, be at the ESPY's, a huge Team USA Nike ad, and not have any connections? Drake and Cole had Wayne & Hov behind them at 23 and didn't even get chances like this.

    He had like a listening party here in Chicago for 100 ppl at this warehouse, he said he dropped over 250K to put it together. Idk what to tell if you think dude is really going out of pocket for things like that. I love Chano but he's definitely got someone behind him.

    Drake's got a known and confirmed backstory to how he got signed and put on.

    Also if you look back at it Drake/Cole/Kendrick weren't doing close to what Chance is right now.

    At the end of the day I don't really care how Chance's got to where he's at, but to just say he grinded and all these amazing opportunities fell into his lap is kinda naive.
