Btw, i'm getting really sick of Scott being this weak ass alpha wolf. I get that he spends half his energy/focus on hiding the beast within and controlling his wolf urges, but it still doesn't make sense to me. Sure, power levels differ between people regardless of status but Liam was JUST turned. How can Scott be THAT weak? I feel like there needs to be a situation of a life and death for Scott (or those he REALLY cares about) to unleash the beast within and stop being a pussy. I wouldn't mind if his mom died this season as long as it leads to character development for Scott.

Probably cause Darling snooped some listeners away from ENL. Give it some time and the gap will close.

A death list. Interesting. What's up with 'ALLISON' being the key to decrypt it? I can't really take a bunch of teenage assassins seriously though.

On Melon, ENL is even being listened to by a significant portion of the 60+ age group now That wasn't the case until recently. Man, this song is really huge to reach all these age groups. Not to mention that 54.3% of the listeners on Melon are male.

Cool. Gogo C-fans I guess.... And no

what 10th anniv poll is a little different though I don't know if relevant. I vote for MCD too.

Wtf, how does the percentage change so fast? I voted like 45mins ago and Growl was 2% ahead of Crooked.

"Perfect All-Kill is specific to Instiz's chart which didn't exist when Lies came out. Also wasn't that "Letter from Korean VIP" exposed as fake and written by ftk?

Since the half-year chart is out, let's compare it to ENL's charting so far (note: It's only had 5 charting weeks). ENL's current downloads and streams stand at: 845,793 downloads / 25,600,063 streams Downloads Streams Considering that ENL will sell above 100k downloads for 1-2 more weeks, it should be borderline top 10 in just two more charting weeks. Streaming will take a little longer as it's more longevity based than downloads, but ENL has and will continue to have good streaming. Overall this song is definitely on track to be top5 yearly, possibly even #2.

This instrumental is just beautiful

What bugs me about it all is the lack of consistency with the issue. First GD's sales decrease by like 60k after virtually no solo hiatus, then Seungri comes back from a 3yr solo hiatus and doubles his sales.. Now YB comes back after a 4yr solo hiatus and sells less than his 2008 mini (not to mention less than Seungri)? It makes no sense. I might not have solid proof but something is definitely up with Gaon and YGE(shop). I'm curious to find out just how good the longevity of ENL will be. It looks like it could sell 100k for another 2 weeks which would already put it above AkMu 8 week downloads with one more week left. I hope it can come close to Some's total downloads.

So I decided to track ENL's downloads/streams and wow the numbers are hella impressive. Downloads Week 01: 322,577 Week 02: 163,305 Week 03: 128,313 Week 04: 119,610 Week 05: 111,988 Total: 845,793 Streams Week 01: 4,500,123 Week 02: 5,409,878 Week 03: 5,188,449 Week 04: 5,162,164 Week 05: 5,339,449 Total: 25,600,063 The 2nd highest streaming week is the 5th week ENL's downloads could maybe catch up with Some....

Well having seen Rise's Gaon numbers, i'm now convinced there is something going on with Gaon and YGE/YGEshop. First GD's album sales decline by 50k in a matter of a year even though he continued gaining fans and touring. Then Seungri's sales double after a 3yr solo hiatus. Now YB's album sales are his lowest ever, even lower than his 2008 mini. How does that make any sense?

Cassies constantly make up shit that didn't happen so I wouldn't be surprised if this was fake.

AkMu isn't a solo act.

The reign just wont let up! The sun just won't go down! etc

Wasn't it Peter Chun from YG's American branch? Anyway it was embarrassing. That phrase has been around for decades, it was dumb to assume she quoted it from FB...

That doesn't sound like there's currently a concrete plan for a repackage...bummer. Was hoping they intentionally put only 9 songs on Rise so they could save some for a repack. I don't think those 20 songs includes the original Rise songs though. I assumed he was referring to the period after deciding the scrap the original record.

Has there been any news about the repack aside from it existing? I remember YB mentioned he had 20 songs and put 9 of them on Rise. Hopefully he puts at least 5 new ones on the repackage or dare I say a 2CD album w/ 11 songs + 9 from Rise

Not surprised at god's numbers. Their fans are probably in their 30-40s now and will gladly pick up this album. Could see it selling a LOT. 

Ohhhh Scott bit that new guy from Lacrosse. Will the Calavera's go after Scott now that he turned someone? And WTF was that guy? He had white eyes. I'm honestly not liking how they're venturing off into different supernatural species without having explored werewolves all that much.

In GOD's new album, there's an interlude with the members talking with a female, and (I assume) they ask her to sing a bit of their hit song "Lies", but instead she sings Big Bang's Lies to mess with them @ 1:27 Funny that they included that.

Current hiatus from Alive release to today is 859 days (764 from Still Alive). Assuming for a second their cb date is October 6, their hiatus would be 950 days (855 days from Still Alive)... To put that number in perspective, the amount of days passed since their official debut is 2880 days.

I don't care either way, but I doubt they will expand the tour AND keep doing weekend-only concerts. It's just not feasible. Any decent sized tour would take close to a year that way. Yeah. Still, their JP tour is gonna be fking huge.. I expect around 20 dates total, including 1-2 stadium dates.

The size of the tour doesn't have as much to do with it as the frequency of concerts. During Alive, they only did concerts on Friday/Saturday/Sunday with a few exceptions. That means they wasted 4-5 days of every week doing either less important/profitable schedules or nothing at all. If they dedicate all their time to touring, it won't take very long. The next WT is gonna be much bigger I assume, so if they do 4-5 concerts a week, it shouldn't take more than 6 months. And that's assuming they stick to small indoor venues. If they opted for stadiums throughout Asia instead, they could significantly boost attendance AND reduce the amount of concerts at the same time. I'm pretty sure they can fill stadiums in Korea, Taiwan, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and China if they make the ticket prices more public friendly.
