    It's a shame because her album was amazing. I think Dreamville was probably expecting better numbers too. Ella was at #50 and did 12,000.

    Word. Crazy how FHD been out for almost 5 years and is still charting higher than Dreamville artists debut album. Dreamville got work to do. She should AT LEAST be selling 15k first week,

    She didn’t have a full week since she dropped on Tuesday. It’ll reflect more accurately next week

    She missed 4 days. Those numbers are based off of 3 days of listening

    Ib the Dweeb

    He needs to take a cut in pay and spend $$ promoting Dreamville artists. Ari should be bigger. Cozz should be bigger. Lute should be in the spotlight more

    Tuesday release or not, they didn't promote Ari properly. A second single and video should've been out by now, she could've done SNL or Colbert. I was shocked to see how many people on my IG feed were listening to the album and its been nothing but praise.

    Yall tripping , ari even charting on the billboard 200 chart is a W, regardless of where it charted. her last project didnt chart at all. So she iz only going up.. jid and bas first albums charted lower than that on the billboard 200, now their recent ones charted in the top 50. Ari next project will do the same, ari not on jid or bas level just yet, so her debuting where she did makes sense..

    If yall gon put this much energy into sales and s--- yall got to factor in everything lol. Like her having no billboard 100 record. Whipped cream and shea butter baby had buzz, but they werent no hit records.. she had no physical copies i know of, she did this all off streams and no hit record.

    Yall dont put too much thought into ari numbers, not yet anyway lol..

    Idk where exactly yall thought she was gon chart but the expectations was a lil too high lol..

    And cozz not being on logic tour is not a big deal.. yall acting like cozz can just go up to ib and cole and be like, put me on logic tour lol. s--- dont work like that.. either logic picks his opening acts or the label decides.

    And effected is better than cozz n effect, no question..

    @Uncle Luke it's not about the numbers to me. The whole rollout for her album seemed clumsy, like they didn't know what they were doing. We did know her album was coming, but we really didn't have a date until a couple days in advance. Like I said before, that concept only works for Cole. Ari's face and name are definitely out there so its not like they did nothing for her, but Idk...they come across unorganized and unprepared sometimes.

    It's not about Logic or Dreamville, it's about Cozz being stagnant. Do u remember the ROTD3 sessions? What became of that? JID and Saba, Smino and Earthgang tours. Cozz should have been on that Buddy and Vince Staple tour. Don't get me started on Lute

    ROTD3 announcement and single soon, i hope

    I hope it’s not a surprise drop overnight. Let it build for over a week or so. A Memorial Day weekend release would be dope. Or right after Memorial Day on Tuesday. Soundtrack for the summer
