It’s only been two days since Kendrick’s highly-anticipated To Pimp A Butterfly was released, and already, he’s broken Drake’s single day record.
Top Dawg CEO Anthony Tiffith announced via Twitter that the LP was streamed 9.6 Million times on the first day — which beats out the previous record of 6.8 million held by Drake. While it’s still way to early to see if their prediction is true, it is one hell of a start.
Support/purchase To Pimp A Butterfly, available on iTunes now.
