Need Kanye to debut at least 5 songs in the top 20 so Blinding Lights can go recurrent.

[strongerq]

^^Yup, they added 'Hurricane' at #6 on Today's Top Hits.

[phieaglesfan712]

5 Kanye debuts in the Top 20 is not going to happen missing one-third of the tracking week, but CLB should push BL to recurrency anyways.

Is Donda a gospel album?

Thematically, yes.

[shaz196]

If there's one thing Kanye has down pat, it's dropping his album at the least expected time.

[kierz7]

•DONDA• is simply amazing!

Moon, Jail, Hurricane, Believe What I Say, Heaven and Hell, Remote Control etc.

The CONTINUOUS punch!

😩😩😩

[Groovy]

At least he put it out this time unlike Yandhi.

[Fears in the Fire]

Poor Halsey omg. Eminem last time now Kanye…

[phieaglesfan712]

I'm just glad Halsey isn't getting the #1 album. There's already been enough one-week wonder albums that have gone to #1, and quite frankly, we don't need to add another. At least Donda will be relevant in the upcoming weeks. Halsey's album will be pretty much forgotten about after the first week.

[Groovy]

Donda will likely be a distant memory once CLB comes out.

I agree with this take, if only because this is exactly what has happened with Kanye's last few albums. Make a big splash in the first week and by week 2/3, it's like he didn't just drop an album. The same thing has happened with the last few J. Cole albums as well.

I don’t doubt that DONDA will be the more popular album this week, but this is a really poor argument man. The Billboard 200 is a one-week reflection of the most popular albums. Stop talking about what will be more popular in three weeks. That’s not the point of the fucking chart.

[firefox]

Do you think all Donda tracks will chart? If ever, "Jesus Lord pt 2" will become the longest song on Hot 100 at 11 minutes 30 seconds.

[Baby Yoda Hot100Fan]

^It is too early, but probably at least some. The fact that the album has 26 tracks might be a good or bad thing in that regard.

Did we ever have a major album release on a Sunday in recent year / in the streaming era?

How do your posts get stupider? Look at the list of number one albums from any year and see the number of them that did it for a single week and dropped from there. What you’re saying makes no sense and is frustrating in how ridiculous it is. Do you ever think before you post anything? Ever? God damn it.

Forget nuisances in measuring success and legacy: let's go by stan logic and say that an album is either a brilliant blockbuster success - like SOUR - or a flop aka EVERYTHING ELSE AFTER SOUR BECAUSE IT WAS ALL #1 WEEK NUMBER ONES THAT FELL OFF THE FOLLOWING WEEK !!11!!!

No, especially considering it was released on Sunday, and is missing one-third of the tracking period. I think the better question is if even half of the songs will chart. I'll guess 2 Top 25 debuts, 5 more in the 26-50 range, and 7 more in the bottom half of the Hot 100.

Not an album release, but Ariana dropped Thank U, Next (the song) on a Sunday, and it debuted at #1.

My point exactly, which is why I also referenced J. Cole's last few albums.

What a Time to Be Alive by Drake & Future dropped on a Sunday. More Life by Drake also dropped on a Sunday. They were released in 2015/2017 respectively.

Just learned that Erotica by Madonna has the record for highest debut on the radio charts at #2 back in 1992, which is interesting. What do you guys think - could that record ever be broken?

Doubtful. The only reason "Erotica" debuted that high is because Radio Songs only tracked Pop airplay in its early years.

yeah my guess is that Kanye fanboys will rave about it and call it AOTY this week, and by next week no one will remember he even dropped an album.

Something else about this album that stood out to me was Pure Souls in the second verse where Kanye makes a few Drake references.

Also the features, he has everyone from Travis Scott to The Weeknd to Pop Smoke to Ariana Grande.
