THE STREAM COMES IN

Kendrick Lamar's big #1 debut was the year's largest, and an impressive 60% or so of the total comes from sales. On the streaming front, DAMN. clocked some 233.3m global Spotify streams through Wednesday, compared with the 316m Drake had earned in his first six days (he finished his first week with 347m). In the U.S. alone, Kendrick had earned 148m by Wednesday, compared to More Life's 189m first week.
