    I thought about to start my first thread with this. A thread to collect chart stats for Kendrick's newest album. I love the album, and I'm also interested in charts .So I hope you guys will enjoy and follow this thread.

    I'm also running this thread on ukmix and hiphopshelter. So, why not here too?

    You clearly don't get my point. As if you need a radio single to generate big sales in this era. For an album hailed by critics and Kendrick stans as an absolute masterpiece the sales figures are underwhelming to say the least.

    How is 700,000 records sold in less than a year with hardly any promotion or radio single behind it not selling much?
