Denzel Curry will soon drop his sixth album.

None of the 28-year old's previous albums have done particularly well in their first week.

Curry pushed back on the first-week sales narrative that dominates Hip Hop discourse.

Fans really think they know the industry like that lol

Bruh I never charted like that and I still sell out shows

I don’t get played on the radio or the club and I can travel everywhere and perform shows

first week sales don’t mean shit I’m still winning

I love y’all

Does that sound right?
