DISTRIBUTION RESEARCH - Release Ratio

Look at albums in 2017 to see how the space is between singles released + the music vids, and the full album release.


Kendrick Lamar's DAMN.
One single released before album, followed by three singles in the space of six months afterwards as well as one extra song, ELEMENT, having a video. The second and third single have a video, however the fourth one has yet to release on after three weeks.

  1. You've neglected to summarise - always best at the top of the post (thus presenting the evidence of research below)

  2. This is an example of a fundamental problem with much of your blog: you've done some useful research, but there's no evidence of actual analysis! You're presenting multi screenshots, but where's your summary of what these mean?
    You could modify my suggestion to use TBC tag; maybe use more variations eg TBCanalysis
    Such analysis should be at the TOP of posts, with your evidence trail (and some commentary!) below
    You have it in your hands to greatly increase the quality of your already blogged work this way

  3. Browser crashed just as I clicked publish - if you don't see a comment, ask me about this (no analysis again; this should be top of post; TBCanalysis + such variable tags)
