Lil Yachty's debut album Teenage Emotions did not perform to expectations, only moving 43K sales plus streaming in its first week.
He admitted as much in an Instagram post.
I understand first week numbers didn't do what most people expected but that's only because they don't understand me. They don't understand us. I don't expect anybody to. I make it for those who listen. I feel like my brand is so big and blew up so big, it blew up bigger than my actual music.
"You flopped Yachty, yeah you're a flop," Boat said sarcastically. "I'm a flop. Well if this is what flops look like, then I love it."Can you explain away a flop with a fancy watch?
