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

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