Dancehall artist Alkaline released his Ripple EFFX studio project recently. The EP featured six tracks and was highly anticipated but did not meet the expectations in terms of sales during the first week of release.
Despite the fact that The Ripple Effx was scheduled to be the follow-up to his critically acclaimed "Top Prize" album, which was released in 2021, it has not managed to transcend the shadow of its predecessor.
Among the six tracks on the EP, Best has garnered the most traction, but hasn't found its way into any of Spotify's highly sought-after Editorial playlists, despite the fact that it has the most listeners.
The single has, however, accumulated 25 Spotify Playlists, 2 Pandora Stations, 1 Apple Editorial Playlist, 11 Radio Spins, and 1,192,910 YouTube views so far.
In the distance, Brawling has landed in only 14 Spotify Playlists, 2 Apple Playlists, 3 Pandora Stations, and 3 Youtube playlists. It has racked up 233,530 views on Youtube so far.
As of December 19th the album has been streamed 133.3K times on Spotify, which is the equivalent of just 88 physical sales units via that platform.
